Eger, Elizabeth2012
Books
This study argues that female networks of conversation, correspondence and patronage formed the foundation for women's work in the realms of Shakespeare criticism and poetry. Eger traces the transition between Enlightenment and Romantic culture, arguing for the relevance of rational argument in the history of women's writing.
