Sommario/riassunto |
|
This feminist recuperation of the work of numerous women across the Romantic and Victorian periods presented in this monograph puts not only the canon of poetry under interrogation but also periodisation. Using a number of previously unknown women poets, and a new elaboration of the significance of the work of Rosamund Marriott Watson, this study intersects with some of the most exciting current debates in nineteenth-century studies, around, for example, the uses of sentimentality and emotion, material culture, the archive, and parody. |
