Women of Letters, Manuscript Circulation, and Print Afterlives in the Eighteenth Century: Elizabeth Rowe, Catharine Cockburn and Elizabeth Carter: Palgrave Studies in the Enlightenment, Romanticism and Cultures of Print

Autor M. Bigold
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2013
Using unpublished manuscript writings, this book reinterprets material, social, literary, philosophical and religious contexts of women's letter-writing in the long 18th century. It shows how letter-writing functions as a form of literary manuscript exchange and argues for manuscript circulation as a method of engaging with the republic of letters.

Recenzii

“Melanie Bigold’s Women of Letters, Manuscript Circulation, and Print Afterlives in the Eighteenth Century offers us this clearer understanding, presenting the reader with three fine, well-chosen case studies to illustrate her various arguments. … Women of Letters is valuable reading for those interested in the eighteenth century, women’s writing, biography, Enlightenment, book history and print culture. The work is an excellent contribution to literary studies and offers us a clearer understanding of the female literary tradition … .” (Amy Prendergast, Romantic Textualities, romtext.org.uk, March, 2016)
“In this revision of her thesis, Melanie Bigold provides a thoughtful study of the interplay of manuscript circulation and print culture over the course of the long eighteenth century. … This book situates the careers of these increasingly appreciated authors within the social, literary, philosophical, and religious contexts of their time. … The nuanced considerations of Bigold’s work thus seem apt to inspire further study of the nexus of writing mediums, whose richness she has eloquently brought forth.” (Ann-Marie Hansen, Papers of the Bibliographical Society of Canada, Vol. 53 (1), 2016)
'This gracefully written book is an original and thought-provoking contribution to our understanding of three of the most intelligent of the British Enlightenment women. Bigold's careful treatment of their writings, published and manuscript, and especially her deeply knowledgeable presentation of their engagement with the most important philosophical and literary debates of their times is a major contribution.' - Paula R. Backscheider, Philpott-Stevens Eminent Scholar, Auburn University, USA
