Megan Woodworth argues that women writers' ideas about their own liberty are also present in their treatment of male characters. In positing a 'Gentleman's Liberation Movement,' she suggests that Frances Burney, Charlotte Smith, Jane West, Maria Edgeworth, and Jane Austen all used their creative powers to liberate men from the very institutions and ideas about power, society, and gender that promote the subjection of women. Their writing juxtaposes the role of women in the private spheres with men's engagement in political structures and successive wars for independence (the American Revolution, the French Revolution, and the Napoleonic Wars). The failures associated with fighting these wars and the ideological debates surrounding them made plain, at least to these women writers, that in denying the universality of these natural freedoms, their liberating effects would be severely compromised. Thus, to win the same rights for which men fought, women writers sought to remake men as individuals freed from the tyranny of their patriarchal inheritance. 410 0$aBritish literature in context in the long eighteenth century. 606 $aEnglish literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMasculinity in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMasculinity in literature. 676 $a823/.5099287 700 $aWoodworth$b Megan A$0853549 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466153503321 996 $aEighteenth-century women writers and the gentleman's liberation movement$91905845 997 $aUNINA LEADER 12121nam 22006615 450 001 9910483293903321 005 20251226200328.0 010 $a3-319-23234-7 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-319-23234-8 035 $a(CKB)3890000000001378 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001558546 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16183565 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001558546 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14818976 035 $a(PQKB)10409220 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-319-23234-8 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6294881 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5610355 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5610355 035 $a(OCoLC)919253433 035 $a(PPN)188460772 035 $a(EXLCZ)993890000000001378 100 $a20150820d2015 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aImage Analysis and Processing ?
