This chapter discusses the different major points that have been raised in the chapters of this book. The history of Russian women writing has presented two traditions. First is the male-dominated and supposedly universal ‘great tradition’ of Russian literary history. Second is the private and invisible particular history of women's own tradition. Finally, suggestions for further analysis and surveys of Russian women writing are presented.
Keywords: history, Russian women writing, traditions, male, Russian literary, private, great tradition
