CiNii 図書 - Shelley's goddess : maternity, language, subjectivity

This study assesses the importance of the mother-infant relationship in Percy Bysshe Shelley's poetry and life. Additionally, it uses Shelley as a touchstone by which to examine the rich historial and theoretical issues relevant to motherhood during the Romantic period. By combining psychoanalytic, post-structuralist and feminist theory with extensive biographical material on Shelley and information on the position of mothers in England after 1790, the author offers a reassessment of Shelley's avowed feminism and the failure of the utopian vision.

内容説明

The subject of Gelpi's new book is the importance of the mother-infant relationship in Percy Bysshe Shelly's poetry and life. However, her book also uses Shelley as a touchstone by which to examine the rich historical and theoretical issues relevant to motherhood in the Romantic period. Gelpi offers a detailed account of the historical rise in attention paid to mothering, the changing cultural attitudes towards the role of the mother, and the resulting effect on the nature of family life. She further discusses the psychoanalytic, Marxist, and developmental approaches to the mother/infant relationship, particularly to the connection each makes between that relationship and the acquisition of language. By combining psychoanalytic, poststructuralist and feminist theory with extensive biographical material on Shelley and information on the position of mothers in England after 1790, Gelpi offers an important reassessment of Shelley's avowed feminism and the failure of his utopian vision.
