abstract="Rape is described as an act of power that is sanctioned by literature, myth, and culture. Rape is a dire experience for women because it implies total loss of self--the woman is a function, not a person. The victim experiences total emptiness and isolation from self and society. The author believes that an effective &quot;treatment&quot; for the rape victim is community. Women asserting themselves by speaking out about their experience validate themselves as persons.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
