This pioneering study, described as 'a model of feminist criticism'
(The Year's Work in English Studies) on first publication, revealed
Gaskell as an important social analyst who deliberately challenged
the Victorian disjunction between public and private ethical
values, who maintained a steady resistance to aggressive authority,
advocating female friendship, rational motherhood and the power of
speech as forces for social change. Since 1987, Gaskell's work has
risen from minor to major status. This new edition presents the
original text (except for bibliographical updating) together with a
new and extensive critical 'Afterword'. This addition contains
detailed evaluation of all the Gaskell criticism published between
1985 and 2004 which has a bearing on her thesis, and thus provides
both a wide-ranging debate on the social implications of
motherhood, and an invaluable survey of Gaskell criticism over the
last twenty years. This study will bring a well-tried classic to a
new audience, while also offering a uniquely comprehensive overview
of current Gaskell studies. -- .
