ShiresIndexThis collection of essays, both feminist and historical, analyzes power relations between men and women in the Victorian period. This volume is the first to reshape Victorian studies from the perspective of the postmodern return to history, and is variously influenced by Marxism, sociology, anthropology, and post-structuralist theories of language and subjectivity. It analyzes the struggle for legitimacy and recognition in Victorian institutions and the struggle over meanings in ideological representation of the gendered subject in texts.Contributors cover diverse topics, including VRoutledge library editions.Women, feminism and literature.English literature19th centuryHistory and criticismTheory, etcFeminism and literatureGreat BritainHistory19th centuryPolitics and literatureGreat BritainHistory19th centuryWomen and literatureGreat BritainHistory19th centurySocial problems in literatureSex role in literatureGreat BritainCivilization19th centuryElectronic books.English literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.Feminism and literatureHistoryPolitics and literatureHistoryWomen and literatureHistorySocial problems in literature.Sex role in literature.305.309034820.9/008820.9008Shires Linda M.1950-251329MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462444103321Rewriting the Victorians1121117UNINA
