This volume brings together the varied artistic, critical and
cultural productions by women scholars, critics and artists between
1790-1900, many of whom are little known in the canonical histories
of the period. It looks at women working outside conventional
canons, and are shown how they negotiated relationships with
canonical forms of artistic production across the different
disciplines, focusing in each case on the gendered associations and
exclusions and the implied structures of sexual difference, which
may or may not be revealed. Women discussed include authors like
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, Sydney Morgan and Anna Jameson,
actresses such as Elizabeth Siddons, Dorothy Jordan, and Mary
Robinson, women critics like Margaret Oliphant and Mary Cowden
Clarke, historians such as Agnes Strickland, Lucy Aikin, Mary Anne
Everett Green, Elizabeth Cooper and Lucy Toulmin Smith, the writers
and readers of Women's magazines, educationalists such as the
Shiress sisters and translators like Anna Swanwick, as well as many
others.
