Full Description
The Routledge Companion to Romantic Women Writers overviews critical reception for Romantic women
writers from their earliest periodical reviews through the most current scholarship and directs users to avenues of future research. It is divided into two parts.The first section offers topical discussions on the status of provincial poets, on women's engagement in children's literature, the relation of women writers to their religious backgrounds, the historical backgrounds to women's orientalism, and their engagement in debates on slavery and abolition.The second part surveys the life and careers of individual women - some 47 in all with sections for biography, biographical resources, works, modern editions, archival holdings, critical reception, and avenues for further research. The final sections of each essay offer further guidance for researchers, including "Signatures" under which the author published, and a "List of Works" accompanied, whenever possible, with contemporary prices and publishing formats. To facilitate research, a robust "Works Cited" includes all texts mentioned or quoted in the essay.
