Maude was written when Christina Rossetti was 19. Clearly
autobiographical, the novel examines the heroine's struggle to
resist the notion that modesty, virtue and domesticity constitute
the duties of women. Rossetti, often overshadowed by her brother
Dante Gabriel Rossetti, struggled to express her own independent
authorial voice and to resist a life bound by the constraints and
demands of the traditional feminine role. On Sisterhoods confronts
head-on the woman question. Asserting that women's role is to find
beauty in their lives through altruism and good works - to be, more
or less, good women, Craik provides a radical solution to the woman
question by advocating the encouragement of Anglican sisterhoods;
effectively women's co-operatives.
