Trivialized for its flightiness and femininity, Fancy nonetheless provided seventeenth- and eighteenth-century women writers such as Margaret Cavendish, Aphra Behn, Delarivier Manley, Eliza Haywood, and Anna Barbauld a mode of vision that could detect flaws in the Enlightenment’s patriarchal systems and glimpse new, female-authored worlds and genres. In carving out unreal, fanciful spaces within the larger frame of patriarchal culture, these women writers planted Fancy—and, with it, female authorial invention—at the cornerstone of Enlightenment empirical endeavor. By finally taking Fancy seriously, this book offers an alternate genealogy of female authorship and a new framework for understanding modernity’s triumph.. | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Fancy; Women‘s Writing; Eighteenth Century Literature; Aphra Behn; Imagination; Leviathan; Hobbes; British | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-49427-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-84159-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-49427-2 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2017 |
