ENGL-177 19th Century Women's Literature

Professor O'Malley

While the women writers of the long nineteenth century were largely engaged with many of the same concerns as their male contemporaries, they often also took on questions specific to the conditions of women's writing. This course examines several works of fiction, verse, and prose by women, reading them in light of both sets of nineteenth-century concerns. At the same time, we will be engaged in the question of how the process of literary canonization works and how women's lives and writing enter into that process.
