Separate spheres no more
gender convergence in American literature, 1830-1930
by Monika M. Elbert
"Although they wrote in the same historical milieu as their male counterparts, women writers of the 19th and early 20th centuries have generally been "ghettoized" by critics into a separate canonical sphere. These original essays argue in favor of reconciling male and female writers, both historically and in the context of classroom teaching.".
"Each essay revises the binary notions that have been ascribed to males and females, such as public and private, rational and intuitive, political and domestic, violent and passive. Although they do not deny the existence of separate spheres, the contributors show the boundary between them to be much more blurred than has been assumed until now."--BOOK JACKET.
