Summary

Craft-Fairchild examines the guises in which womanhood appears, analyzing the ways in which women writers both construct and deconstruct eighteenth-century cultural conceptions of femininity. She offers a careful and engaging textual analysis of both canonical and noncanonical eighteeth-century texts, thereby setting lesser-read fictions into a critical dialogue with more widely known novels.
