Adriana Craciun demonstrates how portrayals of femmes fatales or fatal women played an important role in the development of Romantic women's poetic identities and informed their exploration of issues surrounding the body, sexuality and politics. Craciun covers a wide range of writers and genres from the 1790s through the 1830s. She discusses the work of well-known figures including Mary Wollstonecraft, as well as lesser-known writers like Anne Bannerman. By examining women writers' fatal women in historical, political and medical contexts, Craciun uncovers a far-ranging debate on sexual difference. She also engages with current research on the history of the body and sexuality, providing an important historical precedent for modern feminist theory's ongoing dilemma regarding the status of 'woman' as a sex.Cambridge studies in Romanticism ;54.English literatureWomen authorsHistory and criticismWomen and literatureGreat BritainHistory19th centuryEnglish literature19th centuryHistory and criticismFemmes fatales in literatureRomanticismGreat BritainWomen in literatureEnglish literatureWomen authorsHistory and criticism.Women and literatureHistoryEnglish literatureHistory and criticism.Femmes fatales in literature.RomanticismWomen in literature.820.9/352042Craciun Adriana1967-1042515UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910450053403321Fatal women of Romanticism2466792UNINA02224oam 2200541I 450 991015511810332120240505170820.01-315-62163-01-317-22054-41-317-22053-610.4324/9781315621630(CKB)4340000000023990(MiAaPQ)EBC4767407(OCoLC)967737766(EXLCZ)99434000000002399020180706d2017 uy 0engurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierAid, technology and development the lessons from Nepal /edited by Dipak Gyawali, Michael Thompson and Marco Verweij1st ed.Abingdon, Oxon ;New York, N.Y. :Routledge,2017.1 online resource (228 pages) illustrationsEarthscan science in society1-138-65691-7 Includes bibliographical references and index.pt. 1.
