Elizabeth Gaskell's work and life are being rediscovered against a
backdrop of Victorian middle-class women's experience by many
feminist scholars. Viewed in this century as conventional and
conservative, Gaskell may instead be regarded as a radical for her
time, because she challenged widely-held assumptions about the
nature of women, their proper sphere, and their participation in
the public realm. Examining the theme of work in Gaskell's novels,
Colby presents this Victorian novelist as an effective advocate of
change as she tried to create space for women within the world of
work.
