Christopher D Johnson

A Political Biography of Sarah Fielding (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Tracing the development of Fielding's agendas, Johnson presents a compelling portrait of an author who claimed a place within literary culture for women's experiences. While Fielding often retreats from the overtly political concerns that captured the attention of her contemporaries, her works are daring forays into the public sphere that both challenge and reinforce the foundations of British society. Giving voice to those who have been marginalized, Fielding's creative productions are at once conservative and radical, revealing her ambiguous appreciation for tradition, her fears of modernity, and her abiding commitment to women who must live within forever imperfect worlds.
