Written by scholars in art history and in literature, the essays employ a variety of interdisciplinary approaches and methodologies to study the women's reception of specific artworks and aesthetic movements in the nineteenth century, the intersections of aesthetics and politics in their essays, and their rhetorical strategies and literary styles. 606 $aWomen art critics$zFrance$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aArt criticism$zFrance$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aWomen art critics$xHistory 615 0$aArt criticism$xHistory 676 $a709.2/520944 701 $aGuentner$b Wendelin Ann$f1950-$01618824 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822043503321 996 $aWomen art critics in nineteenth-century France$93950769 997 $aUNINA
