Eighteenth-Century Women Poets: Nation, Class, and Gender
ISBN: 9780791425121 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book examines the poems of three Englishwomen--washerwoman Mary Collier, middle-class feminist polemicist Mary Scott, Bristol milkwoman Ann Yearsley, and Scottish dairywoman from Ayrshire, Janet Little. It questions how national identity might have influenced gender and class affiliations, and, reciprocally, how gender might have determined a nationalist impulse, particularly as it played out during the revolutionary period (1770-1800) in which most of the texts were written.

Through studying the writings of around thirty women in total, Ferguson concludes that white British women, as a result of their...
