The Blame: A Hidden History of Heresy, Genius, and the Violence of Erasure

£26.99

The Blame traces an unbroken line from Eve’s apple to Wikipedia’s missing women, from witch’s pyres to NASA’s deleted pages, from stolen signatures to silenced voices. This is the hidden history of how blame was forged into theology, coded into law, and embedded into everyday language, and how that blame served as justification for erasing women from human history.

Drawing on anthropology, history, archaeology, theology, science, literature, and digital culture, Sara Madden documents the systematic mechanisms through which women’s contributions have been minimized, stolen, or eliminated; and the women who refused to disappear.

This is not just women’s history. This is the history of how history itself was written to exclude half of humanity.
