Refining arguments that women's writing has been overlooked, Keane examines the more complex underpinnings and exclusionary effects of the English national literary tradition. The book explores the negotiations of literate, middle-class women such as Hannah More, Mary Wollstonecraft, Charlotte Smith, Helen Maria Williams and Ann Radcliffe with emergent ideas of national literary representation. As women were cast into the feminine, maternal role in Romantic national discourse, women like these who defined themselves in other terms found themselves exiled - sometimes literally - from the nation. These wandering women did not rest easily in the family-romance of Romantic nationalism nor could they be reconciled with the models of literary authorship that emerged in the 1790s.Cambridge studies in Romanticism ;44.English literatureWomen authorsHistory and criticismEnglish literature18th centuryHistory and criticismWomen and literatureEnglandHistory18th centuryRomanticismEnglandHistory18th centuryPolitics and literatureEnglandHistory18th centuryNationalism in literatureEnglish literatureWomen authorsHistory and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.Women and literatureHistoryRomanticismHistoryPolitics and literatureHistoryNationalism in literature.820.9/9287/09033Keane Angela1705503MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828429603321Women writers and the English nation in the 1790s4092219UNINA
