The Emperor Redressed
Jonathan Daniel Wells. Women Writers and Journalists in the Nineteenth-Century South
Each of these well-researched and gracefully written books contributes to the ongoing project of recovering women's contributions to U.S. literary culture. Both volumes concentrate on journalism as a key instrument in simultaneously opening professional opportunities to women and encouraging public discourse to include women's issues, ultimately advancing a progressive agenda of suffrage, female professionalism, and female wage-earning.

The Artistry of Anger
Grasso explores the ways in which black and white 19th-century women writers define, express, and dramatize anger. Offering close readings of works by Lydia Maria Child, Maria W. Stewart, Fanny Fern, and Harriet Wilson, she shows how women used an aesthetic of discontent to address such complex social and political issues as slavery, industrialization, imperialism, and race relations

Delia Bacon, History's Odd Woman Out
EMINIST literary scholars in search of neglected antebellum women writers have made it impossible to consider fiction without Harriet Beecher Stowe, abolitionism without Lydia Maria Child, transcendentalism without Margaret Fuller. Stowe, Child, and Fuller were powerful intellectual forces in their own time, and their literary achievements are central to our understanding of antebellum culture now. Delia Bacon's is a different story. Her repeated…

American Women Writers and the Work of History, 1790-1860
Just as she helped launch the rediscovery of literary texts by American women writers, Nina Baym now uncovers the work of history performed by over 150 writers in over 350 texts. Here she explores a world of important writing unknown even to most specialists. The novels, poems, plays, textbooks, and travel narratives written by women between 1790 and the Civil War defy current theories of women's writing that stress a female domain of the private…

Feminism and American Literary History
Writing Women's Literary History
By championing the recovery of lost women writers and insisting on reevaluating the past, women's studies and feminist theory have effected dramatic changes in the ways English literary history is written and taught. In Writing Women's Literary History, Margaret Ezell critically examines these successful women's literary histories and applies to them the same self-conscious feminism that critics have applied to more traditional methods. According…

Between Enlightenment and Victorian
Women and the Republic
ALTHOUGH WE CELEBRATE THE FIRST PUBLISHED WOMAN POET IN America for her personal and confessional lyrics, Anne Bradstreet actually came to public attention in her own day as a writer of history. The Four Monarchies, the lengthy centerpiece of her 1640 Tenth Muse, is a rhymed history of the kingdoms of Assyria, Persia, Greece, and Rome. A century and a half later, when the first generation of national writers began working, most of the literary wo…
Reinventing Lydia Sigourney
IFLydia Howard Huntley Sigourney had not existed, it would have been necessary to invent her. In fact, she was invented. As American women writers began to publish in numbers before the Civil War, one of their number would inevitably be construed as an epitome of the phenomenon of female authorship in its range of allowed achievements and required inadequacies. Now, here was a poor, virtuous, essentially self-educated woman whose writing was spon…

qualities, will probably think first of the speaker's unmistakable voice, next of the recurrent rural setting. Most discussions of the lyrics have centered on these aspects. But the speaker has been too quickly assimilated into the tradition of the cracker barrel philosopher, merely because he is colloquial and nonallusive. The setting, simply because it is rural, has often been too facilely assumed to prove that Frost is an antimodern. Instead o…

Passion and Authority in The Scarlet Letter
W ITH the composition of The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne, after two decades of hesitation and experimentation, finally accepted his vocation as an author and produced a major work. In this book he defined the focus of all four of his finished novels: the conflict between forces of passion and of repression in the psyche and in society. The book also gave definitive symbolic shape to a number of elements in his continuing exploration of th…

E VERY student of Nathaniel Hawthorne's work and life knows that he wrote Scarlet Letter because he lost his job at the Salem Custom House. He told the world so in his autobiographical preface to the story, The Custom-House, and all later biographers have followed his lead while filling out the details.1 But the sequence of events Hawthorne chronicles in the preface explains no more than how he came to be free to write, and offers no factual basi…
