TY - JOUR PY - 2002// TI - The Apotheosis of Home and the Maintenance of Spaces of Violence JO - Hypatia A1 - Price, Joshua M. SP - 39 EP - 70 VL - 17 IS - 4 N2 - The "Home" is ideologically understood as a place of safety and refuge. Such an account cloaks violence against women. The voices of battered women can disrupt that dominant construction of the space of the home, a construction typified by the work of Gaston Bachelard. The space that Bachelard presupposes and theorizes as given is in fact being-produced, cleaned, and organized by people who themselves may not find in it any solace or respite.
