The contributors simultaneously clarify and complicate our understanding of some of the more vexed areas of Gilman's work by engaging saliently with her theories of ethnicity, class, prostitution, and the dynamics of gender; posing difficult questions to contemporary feminist scholars; and providing sensitive and insightful guidance to a well-chosen and wide range of texts."-Janet Beer, author of Kate Chopin, Edith Wharton and Charlotte Perkins Gilman. 606 $aFeminism and literature$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aWomen and literature$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aSocial problems in literature 606 $aOptimism in literature 615 0$aFeminism and literature$xHistory 615 0$aWomen and literature$xHistory 615 0$aSocial problems in literature. 615 0$aOptimism in literature. 676 $a818.409 676 $a818/.409 701 $aRudd$b Jill$01478839 701 $aGough$b Val$01578815 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780169303321 996 $aCharlotte Perkins Gilman$93858472 997 $aUNINA
