  • von Sarah Parker
    81,00 - 227,00 €

    Throughout history the poetic muse has tended to be (a passive) female and the poet male. Parker looks at fin-de-siecle lyric poets to investigate how they overcame these roles and identifies their key strategies.

    von Kerri Andrews
    81,00 - 227,00 €

    von Enit Karafili Steiner

    von Kelly McGuire

  • von USA) MacDonald & Tara (University of Idaho
    71,00 - 227,00 €

    By tracing the rise of the New Man alongside novelistic changes in the representations of marriage, MacDonald shows how this figure encouraged Victorian writers to reassess masculine behaviour and to re-imagine the marriage plot in light of wider social changes. She finds examples in novels by Dickens, Anne Bronte, George Eliot and George Gissing.

    This book explores how British women used the didactic novel genre to engage in political debate in novels published from 1790 to 1820. The genre was among the few acceptable ways by which women could participate in public political debate; the book reveals how it works as a corrective not just on a personal and individual level, but at the political level through its focus on issues such as inheritance, slavery, the roles of women and children, the limits of the novel, and English and Scottish nationalism. This book demonstrates how women with various ideological and educational foundations were involved in British political discourse during a time of radical partisanship and social change.
