Outward Appearances : The Female Exterior in Restoration London, Hardback Book

Outward Appearances : The Female Exterior in Restoration London Hardback

Part of the Bucknell Studies in Eighteenth Century Literature and Culture series

Hardback

Item not Available

Description

This book elucidates early modern attitudes toward women's public display.

It is a cultural study that draws on a wide range of literary and non-literary texts from 1650-1700 to revisit the sites where women appeared most prominently: the playhouse, the park, and the New Exchange (a shopping arcade in the Strand).

An academic study, Outward Appearances is written in a clear and engaging style.

It is aimed particularly at literary scholars, but historians will take a keen interest in it as well.

It offers a fresh context for the study of Restoration drama and a provocative argument about women and public space.
