A few other translations of her work have been scattered through a variety of academic collections and journals in subsequent years, including the American journal Feminist Issues.² When the WRRC Publications group went into collaboration with Hutchinson Education, we decided, rather than reissuing The Main Enemy, to produce a new and larger collection of Delphy’s papers so as to give English and non-academic readers a better appreciation of the development and importance of her work. It was then reissued, together with two other articles, in a pamphlet from the Women’s Research and Resources Centre in London in 1977. An article of hers, ‘The main enemy’, formed part of the first major publication from the women’s movement in France in 1970 ¹*, and it was translated and sold in mimeoed form at the 1974 Women’s Liberation Conference in Edinburgh. This collection contains papers published between 19 by Christine Delphy, a leading activist in the French women’s liberation movement, who has been described by Simone de Beauvoir as France’s most exciting feminist theorist.Ĭhristine Delphy’s work has only slowly become available in English.
