By Beam, Dorri2010., Cambridge University Press Call No: 813.3 BEA Availability:1 of 1 At Location(s)Click here to view Click here to view More... Summary Note: "Dorri Beam presents an important contribution to nineteenth-century fiction by examining how and why a florid and sensuous style came to be adopted by so many authors. Discussing a diverse range of authors, including Margaret Fuller and Pauline Hopkins, Beam traces this style through a variety of literary endeavors and reconstructs the political rationale behind the writers' commitments to this form of prose. Beam provides both close readings of a number of familiar and unfamiliar works and an overarching account of the importance of this form of writing, suggesting new ways of looking at how gender determines literary style.

This illuminating account provides valuable new insights for scholars of American literature and women's writing"--
