Description

A constellation of new essays on authorship, politics and history, Women's Writing in Britain, 1660-1830 presents the latest thinking about the debates raised by scholarship on gender and women's writing in the long eighteenth century. The essays highlight the ways in which women writers were key to the creation of the worlds of politics and letters in the period, reading the possibilities and limits of their engagement in those worlds as more complex and nuanced than earlier paradigms would suggest. Contributors include Norma Clarke, Janet Todd, Brian Southam, Harriet Guest, Isobel Grundy and Felicity Nussbaum.
