πŸ“˜ Women in Caribbean History

Women in Caribbean History is a first attempt to pull together the scattered material on women from the secondary sources into one place with the aim of providing students, teachers and the general reader with easily accessible information on Caribbean women of diverse ethnic origins. This introductory text attempts to respond to the need to project a more positive image of Caribbean women and to counter the stereotypes and negative images presented by early colonisers and settlers, and the writings of European planters, missionaries and travellers to the Caribbean.

Traditions of Victorian women's autobiography by 6575005|Linda H. Peterson book cover

πŸ“˜ Traditions of Victorian women's autobiography

"Arguing that women's autobiography does not represent a singular separate tradition but instead embraces multiple lineages, Linda H. Peterson explores the poetics and politics of these diverse forms of life writing. She carefully analyzes the polemical Autobiography of Harriet Martineau and Personal Recollections of Charlotte Elizabeth Tonna, the missionary memoirs that challenge Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, the Romantic autobiographies of the poet and poetess that Barrett Browning reconstructs in Aurora Leigh, the professional life stories of Margaret Oliphant and her contemporaries, and the Brontean and Eliotian bifurcations of Mary Cholmondeley's memoirs."--BOOK JACKET.
