Women Poets and Urban Aestheticism : Passengers of Modernity Paperback / softback
by A. Vadillo
Part of the Palgrave Studies in Nineteenth-Century Writing and Culture series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book re-examines cultural, social, geographical and philosophical representations of Victorian London by looking at the transformations in urban life produced by the rise and development of urban mass-transport.
It also radically re-addresses the questions of epistemology and gender in the Victorian metropolis by mapping the epistemology of the passenger.
Vadillo focuses on the lyric urban writings of Amy Levy, Alice Meynell, 'Graham R.
Tomson' (Rosamund Marriott Watson) and 'Michael Field' (Katherine Bradley and Edith Cooper).
