Produktbeschreibung
Studies how women writers shaped long-eighteenth-century educational discourse through literature The essays in this volume reveal the complex, various and sometimes contradictory ways in which female literary authors interrogated and advanced educational philosophy and practice during the long eighteenth century. The collection explores how long-eighteenth-century discourses of education shaped what it meant for women to write and how women writers shaped discourses of education, spotlighting the influence of female authors on eighteenth-century debates about education as they are conducted in and through literary form. By identifying a discernible tradition of women's educational literature and restoring female writers to the centre of the stage, this book adds its voice to existing scholarly efforts to correct the ongoing critical tendency to marginalise the contribution of women to the history of educational thought. Jessica Lim recently supervised English Literature at the University of Cambridge where she was a Director of Studies in English at Lucy Cavendish College. Louise Joy is a Fellow, Director of Studies and College Associate Professor in English at Homerton College, University of Cambridge, where she is the Vice-Principal.
