The Routledge Companion to Romantic Women Writers overviews
critical reception for Romantic women writers from their earliest
periodical reviews through the most current scholarship and directs
users to avenues of future research. It is divided into two
parts.The first section offers topical discussions on the status of
provincial poets, on women's engagement in children's literature,
the relation of women writers to their religious backgrounds, the
historical backgrounds to women's orientalism, and their engagement
in debates on slavery and abolition.The second part surveys the
life and careers of individual women - some 47 in all with sections
for biography, biographical resources, works, modern editions,
archival holdings, critical reception, and avenues for further
research. The final sections of each essay offer further guidance
for researchers, including "Signatures" under which the author
published, and a "List of Works" accompanied, whenever possible,
with contemporary prices and publishing formats. To facilitate
research, a robust "Works Cited" includes all texts mentioned or
quoted in the essay.
