内容説明
In this work, the author presents a history of women's writing in Britain between 1900 and 1945. In the first years of the Edwardian period, women writers were most prominent in the genres of children's writing and romantic fiction. In the first half of the 20th century, women's writing expanded and diversified into prominence in a range of genres including published autobiography and the new field of academic discourse. Women's writing is considered in its social and cultural contexts and the work charts the transition of women's writing from the Edwardian period to the Modernist period. It also looks at the history of the relations, whether helpful, emulative or dismissive between women writers such as Viginia Woolf and Berta Ruck. It also seeks to shed light on the shared themes and concerns of innovative, "lowbrow" and "middlebrow" writers - that they had to contend with the gulf between their perception between themselves as professional and the public perception of "lady writers".

内容説明
Women's Writing in English: Britain 1900-1945 presents a survey of the range of women's writing in the earlier twentieth century, looking in particular at the work of leading modernists including Woolf, Richardson and Rhys. The work of these writers is explored in its historical contexts and in the context of the vital and diverse writings which flourished alongside them.
This was a period when women's writing was influenced by the struggles of the women's movement, and when continuing debates about women's writing and feminist programmes were clearly articulated for the first time. Anthea Trodd explores these issues, and considers how women writers related to each other in this period of developing professionalism and divisions between high, middle and lowbrow writing. The individual chapters discuss the leading innovative writers and their relation to documentarist, rural and historical fiction, poetry, autobiography, academic discourse, and the popular genres of romance, crime and children's writing in which women dominated.
