From playtime to potential: A meta-analysis on the developmental role of play in creativity
“A Strange, Unnatural Divorce/Betwixt Delight and Me”: Amy Levy, Melancholia, and the Poetic Temperament
Amy Levy's suicide has overshadowed much criticism of her work and life, but scholars have neglected to address Levy's experiences of low mood during her lifetime. This article examines Levy's writing about the persistent feelings of sadness in her life, in both her correspondence and literary work. It suggests that Levy drew on contemporary discourses of low mood to explore the idea of a melancholic poetic temperament in her poetry and fiction, …
A Place to Meet: Community and Companionship in the Magazine of the London School of Medicine for Women, 1895–1905
At the turn of the twentieth century, British women were able to qualify as medical doctors and enter professional practice for the first time. However, they often remained excluded from the specialist journals which were crucial for knowledge exchange during this period. As a result, they formed several of their own periodicals, including the Magazine of the London School of Medicine for Women (1895–1947), which this paper discusses. Significant…
Treacherous Texts: An Anthology of U.S. Suffrage Literature, 1846-1946
Treacherous Texts collects more than sixty literary texts written by smart, savvy writers who experimented with genre, aesthetics, humor, and sex appeal in an effort to persuade American readers to support woman suffrage. Although the suffrage campaign is often associated in popular memory with oratory, this anthology affirms that suffragists recognized early on that literature could also exert a power to move readers to imagine new roles for wom…

Cross-Cultural Affinities between Native American and White Women in "The Alaska Widow" by Edith Eaton (Sui Sin Far)
When her work was recovered in the 1980s, Edith Eaton (Sui Sin Far) was credited with founding the canon of Asian-North American literature.1 The earliest Eaton scholarship focused on her resistance to yellow-peril discourse through her sympathetic portrayals of diasporic Chinese and Eurasians.2 This scholarship contrasted Edith Eaton’s “authentic” self-presentation as the half-Chinese “Sui Sin Far” with her sister Winnifred’s posturing as Japane…

"A "Revolution in Ink: Sui Sin Far and Chinese Reform Discourse
This essay takes Asian-American writer Sui Sin Far (Edith Eaton) as a case study of how non-white, non-middle-class women reacted to the exclusiveness of the suffragist campaign. Against a backdrop of nativist, racist suffragism, it rereads Sui Sin Far's fiction and essays not as "anti-progressive" and "anti-suffragist", as recent scholars have claimed, but as a reaction to the exclusiveness of white suffragists who routinely invoked the trope of…
