| Sommario/riassunto: | Ouida,' the pseudonym of Louise Ramé (1839-1908), was one of the most productive and widely read Victorian writers. This volume offers a radically new view of Ouida, engaging with perceptions of popular and women writers, conceptions of 'high' and 'low' literatures, theatrical adaptation of fiction, and issues related to imperialism, nationalism and cosmopolitanism. Its usefulness to scholars is enhanced by bibliographies of Ouida's published works and stage adaptations of her fiction. |
