Steinitz, Rebecca. Time, space, and gender in the nineteenth-century British diary. New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2011, x, 272pp., very good hardcover with printed and illustrated covers. nicely INSCRIBED to close friends who supported her during the writing of the disseration and book, and SIGNED Becca. Cover design by Ben Summers. Time, Space, and Gender in the Nineteenth-Century British Diary is the first comprehensive overview of the omnipresent phenomenon that was the nineteenth-century British diary. Examining manuscript diaries, diary publication, and diaries in fiction, the book explores how the diary's organization of time and space made it an invaluable and uniquely effective vehicle for the dominant discourses of the period, including religion, Romanticism, empire, empiricism, domesticity, and nostalgia. The exploration of this vast and varied genre lays the foundation for an analysis of how the diary came to be known as the feminized, emotive, private form still privileged today.- CONTENTS: PART I: THE MANUSCRIPT DIARY -- Elizabeth Barrett, the Abandoned Diary, and the Challenge of Time -- Arthur Munby, the Endless Diary, and the Promise of Space -- Family, Gender, and the Intimate Diary -- PART II: THE DIARY IN PRINT -- The Politics of Publication -- Fiction and the Feminization of the Diary. REVIEWS: "In this well-researched and cogently organized book, Stelnitz gives us nineteenth-century diaries in manuscript and print, fact and fiction . Filled with excellent insights about an impressive range of materials, this is the most comprehensive study of the British nineteenth-century diary to date." Sharon Marcus, Orlando Harriman Professor, Columbia University and author of Between Women: Friendship, Desire end Marriage In Victorien England // "Steinitz's study of the nineteenth-century British diary, and of the widely varied uses to which diarists, novelists, and cultural panjandrums put the genre, is impressively panoptic and tightly focused all at once. You'll be struck by how many diarists Steinitz manages to zoom in on, and instructed by how much sense she makes of them, revealing, among much else, that the form's powers as a cultural practice often doomed its practitioners to a sense of failure; that its operations over space as well as time rendered it indispensable both as a figure for expanding empire, and as a 'hedge' against the 'unprecedented social and physical change' impelled by that expansion; and finally, in the book's most sustained argument, that the still-familiar conceptual link between 'diaries and the feminine' was widely promulgated precisely because it concealed a more intricate and inconvenient truth about the genre's 'practical androgyny.' Steinitz accomplishes all this with such prestidigital dexterity that while it's hard to see exactly how she does it, it's easy to savor how well": Stuart Sherman, author of Telling Time: Clocks, Calendars, and English Diurnal Form, 1600-1795.
