Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) When Marge Hall walked up to Roy Johnson and asked him to dance she had no idea what she was about to set in motion.

Women Writers and the English Nation in the 1790s: Romantic Belongings
ISBN: 9780521022408 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Angela Keane addresses the work of five women writers of the 1790s and its problematic relationship with the canon of Romantic literature.

ISBN: 9780746309711 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In the 1790s, when Charlotte Smith and Helen Maria Williams were at the peak of their critical reputations, they were known to each other and often cited together approvingly. It was Smith who provided the young William Wordsworth with a letter of introduction to Williams when he visited France in 1791 (though she had left by the time he got there). By the end of the decade Smith and Williams were being cited together more pejoratively, as two of a number of women who came to stand for the amoral, sexually suspect and politically naive English 'Jacobins' who were vilified in the conservative...
