"Magical Genders: The Gender(s) of Witches in the Historical Imaginatio" by Lian Sinclair

Abstract

Fruitfully explores the similarities between Pratchett’s theory of narrative causality and the gender theories of Butler and Foucault; all deal with an urge to fit gender performance into an established story. Pratchett’s witches engage in a balancing act between the gender expectations of their society and their own quests for agency and power.
