The Bright Work Grows: Women Writers of the Romantic Age (Revolution and Romanticism, 1789-1834) - Hardcover
Review:
In The Bright Work Grows: Women Writers Of The Romantic Age, Professor Jonathan Wordsworth assesses the contribution of women to the literature of the Romantic period. He discusses poets (Baillie, Barbauld, Betham, Blamire, Caroline Bowles, Bryan, Hemans, Landon, Lickbarrow, Norton, Robinson, Seward, Williams, Yearsely); novelists, storytellers and essayists (Austen, Burney, Sara Coleridge, Hays, Inchbald, Caroline Lamb, Mary Lamb, Mitford, Opie, Owenson, Ann Radcliffe, Mary Shelley, Smith); polemicists and pamphleteers (Mary Anne Radcliffe, Southcott, Wollstonecraft); and writers on education (Egeworth, Catharine Macaulay, Hannah More). With a substantial introduction and index, The Bright Work Grows is a powerful, engaged, and plain-speaking introduction to women's writing during a time when attitudes and conventions were undergoing fundamental change. The Bright Work Grows is a superlative contribution to women's studies and literary studies reading lists. -- Midwest Book Review
