  • The Industrial Muse

    Martha VicinusBOOKThe Industrial Muse2024

    First published in 1974, The Industrial Muse is a study of the literary achievements of the working class. The focus is upon the cultural environment and assumptions of self-educated writers, their literary preoccupations and careers, and the content, form and structure of their writings. This literature must first be considered from the perspective of the working people who read and wrote it, for it functioned in their lives in a number of impor…

  • Dorothea or Jane? The Dilemmas of Early Feminist Criticism

    Open AccessMartha VicinusARTICLEVictorian Literature and Culture2018Referencias: 1

    I have never forgotten a comment made by a friend at the first feminist meeting, held in Bloomington Indiana, in the spring of 1969: “Nothing travels faster than an idea whose time has come.” We were amazed and thrilled to discover how much we had in common with other women, and how the women's movement in its early stages gave us permission to express in public a variety of extreme emotions. All of us at that meeting were young, untenured facult…

  • The History of Lesbian History

    The HistoryofLesbian History Martha Vianus I recently reread HAVELOCK ellis's 1897 Sexual Inversion in prepara tion for writing this essay. I dwelt, understandably, on his chapter "Sexual Inversion in Women," which is organized to show evidence that "homosexuality is not less common in women than in men." This is a statement that he repeats frequently, even as he admits the immense difficulty of finding documentation. It is not his only difficult…

  • Faun Love

    Martha VicinusARTICLEWomen s History Review2009

    In 1890 the lesbian aunt‐and‐niece couple, Katharine Bradley (1846–1914) and Edith Cooper (1862–1913), better known as the poet Michael Field, met Bernard Berenson (1865–1959). Poems, letters and diaries explore the impact of falling in love with a man and they trace the elaborate gender play of their erotic friendship. By living imaginatively in and for art, each hoped to avoid the dreary materialism and sexual constraints of the time. As long a…

  • Normalizing Female Friendship

    Martha VicinusARTICLEVictorian Studies2007Referencias: 2

    Normalizing Female Friendship Martha Vicinus (bio) Sharon Marcus's book is a refreshing reconsideration of same-sex relations between women. Between Women questions a paradigm that has become a cliché in sexuality studies: the notion that women's friendships became "morbidified"—to use pioneering lesbian historian Lillian Faderman's word (76)—during the nineteenth century. In fact, Marcus insists, the earlier generation of feminist scholars had i…

    How and when did society first recognize women's homoerotic bonds? Were these romantic friendships fully accepted, or were they seen as problematic? Did the women involved see themselves as lesbians? These and other questions have been raised over the past twenty years by historians of lesbian sexuality. When Lillian Faderman in her pioneering survey of European and American lesbians declared the nineteenth century as the golden age of unproblema…
