Book Synopsis Romantic Women Writers and Arthurian Legend by : Katie Garner
Download or read book Romantic Women Writers and Arthurian Legend written by Katie Garner. This book was released on 2017-12-11. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reveals the breadth and depth of women’s engagements with Arthurian romance in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Tracing the variety of women’s responses to the medieval revival through Gothic literature, travel writing, scholarship, and decorative gift books, it argues that differences in the kinds of Arthurian materials read by and prepared for women produced a distinct female tradition in Arthurian writing. Examining the Arthurian interests of the best-selling female poets of the day, Felicia Hemans and Letitia Elizabeth Landon, and uncovering those of many of their contemporaries, the Arthurian myth in the Romantic period is a vibrant location for debates about the function of romance, the role of the imagination, and women’s place in literary history.

Book Synopsis Women and Arthurian Literature by : Marion Wynne-Davies
Download or read book Women and Arthurian Literature written by Marion Wynne-Davies. This book was released on 2016-07-27. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first full-length study of the role of women in Arthurian literature. It covers writing from the medieval period, the Renaissance, the Victorian age and in contemporary fiction.
