Book Description
The position of fiction in the careers of these women is complex. Fiction writing was widely recognized as a 'profession' open to women, supplying ready money for personal expenses and for the social cause. It also permitted access to a broad readership that could not be accessed through pamphlets or periodicals, and it allowed the potential for influential literary celebrity. Moreover, romance and the novel had an important position in female education, and fiction allowed writers to voice some of their most unorthodox opinions."--pub. desc.

Book Description
Studying a broader period than its contemporaries, this comprehensive study reveals a neglected tradition of British women’s writing from the Victorian era to the sexual revolution of the 1960s. Outspoken Women brings together the many and varied non-fictional writings of British women on sexual attitudes and behaviour, beginning nearly a hundred years prior to the ‘second wave’ of feminism. Commentators cover a broad range of perspectives and include Darwinists, sexologists, and campaigners against the spread of VD, as well as women writing about their own lives and experiences. Covering all aspects of the debate from marriage, female desire and pleasure, to lesbianism, prostitution, STDs, and sexual ignorance, Lesley A. Hall studies how the works of this era didn’t just criticise male-defined mores and the ‘dark side’ of sex, but how they increasingly promoted the possibility of a brighter view and an informed understanding of the sexual life. Hall’s remarkable anthology is an engaging examination of this fascinating subject and it provides students and scholars with an invaluable source of primary material.
