Her friends included such figures as Harriet Martineau, Lady Byron, Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. This study considers her life and works, using a different Jameson work as the central focus of each chapter. The author considers the particular non-fiction discourse in which the work is written, as well as such issues as gender and colonialism. Arranged chronologically, the book also charts the growth and development of a determined feminism in the vital years of the early Victorian period, and compares Jameson to her contemporaries. 410 0$aNineteenth century (Aldershot, England) 606 $aFeminism and literature$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aWomen and literature$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xIntellectual life$y19th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yVictoria, 1837-1901 615 0$aFeminism and literature$xHistory 615 0$aWomen and literature$xHistory 676 $a808.80092 700 $aJohnston$b Judith$f1947-,$0562008 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154984603321 996 $aAnna Jameson$91015482 997 $aUNINA
