Book Synopsis Memoirs of Modern Philosophers by : Elizabeth Hamilton
Download or read book Memoirs of Modern Philosophers written by Elizabeth Hamilton and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2000-03-27 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Anti-Jacobin Review described Memoirs of Modern Philosophers in 1800 as “the first novel of the day” and as proof that “all the female writers of the day are not corrupted by the voluptuous dogmas of Mary Godwin, or her more profligate imitators,” they clearly situated Elizabeth Hamilton’s work within the revolutionary debate of the 1790s. As with her successful first novel, Letters of a Hindoo Rajah, Hamilton uses fiction to enter the political fray and discuss issues such as female education, the rights of woman and new philosophy. The novel follows the plight of three heroines. The mock heroine, Bridgetina Botherim—a crude caricature of Mary Hays—participates in an English-Jacobin group, leading her to abandon her mother and home to pursue her beloved to London in hopes of emigrating to the Hottentots in Africa. The second heroine, Julia Delmont, is another member of the local group; she is seduced by a hairdresser masquerading as a New Philosopher. She is left pregnant and destitute only to discover that her actions caused her father’s untimely death. The third heroine is the virtuous Harriet, whose Christian faith enables her to resist the teachings of the New Philosophers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From social media to the return of the personal essay to the rise of "autofiction," it seems we inhabit an era of unprecedented self-display. But self-display in its literary form, the memoir, has been around for ages, always freighted with formal and philosophical complexity from Augustine's Confessions on. In this book, philosopher Helena de Bres tackles the philosophy of memoir. What is memoir? Is all memoir really fiction? Should memoirists aim to tell the truth? What do memoirists owe the people they write about? And finally: Why write a memoir at all?"--

Book Synopsis Politics and Genre in the Works of Elizabeth Hamilton, 1756-1816 by : Claire Grogan
Download or read book Politics and Genre in the Works of Elizabeth Hamilton, 1756-1816 written by Claire Grogan and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first book-length study of Elizabeth Hamilton, Grogan addresses a significant gap in scholarship and complicates critical understanding of the Romantic woman writer. Arguing that politically centrist writers have been overlooked, Grogan suggests that situating Hamilton in terms of the Jacobin/anti-Jacobin framework obscures her radical innovations in the deployment of genre. Hamilton's example shows new strategies for uncovering the means by which women writers participated in the revolutionary debate.

Book Synopsis Mary Hays (1759-1843) by : Gina Luria Walker
Download or read book Mary Hays (1759-1843) written by Gina Luria Walker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Hays, reformist, novelist, and innovative thinker, has been waiting two hundred years to be judged in a fair, scholarly, and comprehensive way. During her lifetime and long after, her role in the ongoing reformist debates in England at the end of the eighteenth century, intensified by the French Revolution, served as a lightening rod for opponents who attacked her controversial stance on women's intellectual competence and human rights. The author's intellectual history of Hays finally makes the case for her importance as an innovator. She was a feminist thinker who advanced notions of tolerance that included women, an educator who broke new ground for female autodidacts, a philosophical commentator who translated Enlightenment ideas for a burgeoning female audience, a Dissenting historiographer who reinvented 'female biography,' and a writer of deliberately experimental fiction, including the roman à clef Memoirs of Emma Courtney. The author approaches Hays from several disciplinary perspectives-historical, biographical, literary, critical, theological, and political-to elucidate the multiple ways in which Hays contributed and responded to, and influenced and was influenced by, the most significant issues and figures of her time.
