Women Travel Writers and the Language of Aesthetics, 1716-1818 pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
British readers of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries eagerly consumed books of travel in an age of imperial expansion that was also the formative period of modern aesthetics. Beauty, sublimity, sensuous surfaces, and scenic views became conventions of travel writing as Britons applied familiar terms to unfamiliar places around the globe. The social logic of aesthetics, argues Elizabeth Bohls, constructed women, the labouring classes, and non-Europeans as foils against which to define the 'man of taste' as an educated, property-owning gentleman. Women writers from Mary Wortley Montagu to Mary Shelley resisted this exclusion from gentlemanly privilege, and their writings re-examine and question aesthetic conventions such as the concept of disinterested contemplation, subtly but insistently exposing its vested interests. Bohls' study expands our awareness of women's intellectual presence in Romantic literature, and suggests Romanticism's sources at the peripheries of empire rather than at its centre.
“I am constructing explanations for textual phenomena by reading a chronologically and thematically limited set of texts with and against one another, describing a significant pattern of convention and variation.”從導言和瑪麗·雪萊一章來看,Travel基本上是名存實亡,隻是當成一個背景,沒有針對其進行深挖。
