Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Here Is A Bold New Vision Of Victorian Culture: A Study Of Myths Of Womanhood That Shatters The Usual Generalizations About The Squeezed, Crushed, And Egoless Victorian Woman.Through Copious Examples Drawn From Literature, Art, And Biography, Auerbach Reconstructs Three Central Paradigms: The Angel/Demon, The Old Maid, And The Fallen Woman. She Shows How These Animate A Pervasive Victorian Vision Of A Mobile Female Outcast With Divine And Demonic Powers. Fear Of Such Disruptive, Selfcreating Figures, Auerbach Argues, Produces The Approved Ideal Of The Dutiful, Familybound Woman. The Awe They Inspire Associates Them With Characters In Literature, The Only Vehicles Of Immortality In Whom Most Victorians Could Unreservedly Believe.Auerbach Looks At A Wonderful Variety Of Sources: Svengali, Dracula, And Freud; Poets And Major And Minor Novelists Carlyle, John Stuart Mill, And Ruskin; Lives Of Women, Great And Unknown; Anglican Sisterhoods And Magdalen Homes; Bardolatry And The Theater; Pre Raphaelite Paintings And Contemporary Cartoons And Book Illustrations. Reinterpreting A Medley Of Fantasies, She Demonstrates That Female Powers Inspired A Vivid Myth Central To The Spirit Of The Age.
