The Autobiographical Subject: Gender and Ideology in Eighteenth-Century England

前表紙
Johns Hopkins University Press, 1995 - 264 ページ

Co-recipient of the Louis Gottschalk Prize from the American Association for Eighteenth Century Studies

"An exemplary model of political criticism." -Eighteenth-Century Fiction

"The Autobiographical Subject is rich and richly rewarding for scholars of the eighteenth century. It deserves to be read by everyone who thinks about autobiographical practice." -Sidonie Smith, a/b: Auto/Biography Studies

"Acutely analyzes the construction of gendered character in canonical British autobiographical texts and provides provocative explorations outside the canon, particularly among first-person narratives by women." -Diacritics

"The Autobiographical Subject, with its combination of provocative theory and sound scholarship, deserves a wide readership. Felicity Nussbaum's insights demand the attention of eighteenth-century scholars, feminist critics, and cultural historians, while the central questions raised by the book—how to define the 'self'? why write, why revise, and especially, why publish an autobiography?—are of interest to everyone." -Review of English Studies
