New Woman Fiction : Women Writing First-Wave Feminism Hardback
by A. Heilmann
Hardback
Description
The New Woman was the symbol of the shifting categories of gender and sexuality and epitomised the spirit of the fin de siècle .
This informative monograph offers an interdisciplinary approach to the growing field of New Woman studies by exploring the relationship between first-wave feminist literature, the nineteenth-century women's movement and female consumer culture.
The book expertly places the debate about femininity, feminism and fiction in its cultural and socio-historical context, examining New Woman fiction as a genre whose emerging theoretical discourse prefigured concepts central to second-wave feminist theory.
