Most critical studies of the novel mistakenly locate political power exclusively in the official institutions of state, ignoring the political domain over which women hold authority, which includes courtship practices, family relations, and the use of leisure time. To remedy this, Armstrong provides a dual analysis, tracing both the rise of the novel and the evolution of female authority as part of one phenomenon.Domestic fiction, EnglishHistory and criticismEnglish fictionWomen authorsHistory and criticismFeminism and literatureGreat BritainWomen and literatureGreat BritainWomen in literatureSex role in literatureHome in literatureFamilies in literatureLiterature and societyGreat BritainElectronic books.Domestic fiction, EnglishHistory and criticism.English fictionWomen authorsHistory and criticism.Feminism and literatureWomen and literatureWomen in literature.Sex role in literature.Home in literature.Families in literature.Literature and society823.009352042Armstrong Nancy296924MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451232603321Desire and domestic fiction180888UNINA
