Linda Grant read English at the University of York, between 1972 and 1975, and continued with MA and postgraduate studies in Canada. She started her career as a journalist when she returned to Britain in 1985 to work for The Guardian. In 2012 she gained an honorary doctorate from the University of York and she currently lives in North London. Her rst publication was a non- ction book on feminism entitled Sexing the Millennium: A Political History of the Sexual Revolution (1993) which analysed the cultural changes brought about by the sexual revolution of the 1970s. From the origins of sexual freedom to the backlash against feminism experienced in the 1990s, this book can be read as an optimistic claim for the sexual empowerment of women in order to achieve equality and independence. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/FFI2012-32719 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/UZ/JIUZ-2014-HUM-02 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 0.029 2015 LINGUISTICS 176 / 181 = 0.972 2015 Q4 T3 0.122 2015 Literature and Literary Theory 2015 Q2 Linguistics and Language 2015 Q3 Cultural Studies 2015 Q3 Language and Linguistics 2015 Q3 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 3004 345 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
