This book examines professional literary criticism by Romantic-era
British women to reveal that, while developing a conscious
professionalism, women literary critics helped to shape the
aesthetic models that defined Romantic literary values and made the
British literary heritage a source of national pride. Women critics
understood the contested nature of aesthetics and the public
implications of aesthetic values on questions such as morality,
both public and private, the nation's cultural heritage, even the
essential qualities of Britishness itself.
