  […] eleven of them refer to [Daniel] Corkery's book Synge and Anglo-Irish Literature, which is fully re-cited in eleven different sections. It would have been more efficient to have cited Corkery's book fully one time and then re-cite it in abbreviated form in head notes to the other sections.

  In order to understand the importance of context and genre for the identification of a re-citation, we may look at an example of a recurring re-citational source, namely, Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own. […] In [Janet] Frame's novels and autobiographies there are several references to Woolf's work in general and Room in particular. Indeed Room is re-cited in different ways in the different works studied here. At times, the re-citations further Woolf's ideas and other times they re-cite them against the grain, even if the difference between the two modes is elusive.

  Having cited the "pernicious" formulation of this interpretation of origin—"you cannot help acting this way because your origin stages you so"—Spivak moves to re-cite herself and revise her own previously authored statement: "history lurks in it [origin] somewhere" is rewritten as "history slouches in it, ready to comfort and kill" (ibid., original emphasis). Through this moment of re-citation and revision, Spivak argues for an understanding of origins through a reexamination of institutions and inscriptions in order to then "surmise the mechanics by which such institutions and inscriptions can stage such a particular style of performance" (ibid.).
