Representations of Women - Nineteenth-Century British Women's Poetry

?The main value of this book will be as a reference work, for the author has certainly covered the field of 19th-century women poets and charted their opinions on such subjects as daughters, wives, mothers, the fallen woman, spinsters, women at work, and the new woman. . . . A fine biographical appendix of 19th-century women poets, an excellent selected bibliography, and an author who is thoroughly versed in modern critical theory in women's studies and literature. . . . One feels that much groundwork has been done that will allow others to build on the book for more in-depth studies. Appropriate for lower-division undergraduates.?-Choice
