Book Synopsis Revolutions in Taste, 1773-1818 by : Fiona L. Price
Book excerpt: In her wide-ranging study of women's prose writing during the Romantic period, Fiona Price shows that Joanna Baillie, Anna Letitia Barbauld, Frances Burney, and many others not only shaped and informed the aesthetics of Romanticism but did so by using undervalued genres such as the romance and gothic novel. Price's reassessment of their significance, both aesthetic and political, advances our understanding of nationhood and aesthetics during the Romantic period.
