Description
-
First published in 1979, this academic monograph was reissued as a Methuen University Paperback in 1981. Somewhat enigmatically referred to in Gay’s the Word’s list of seized books as ‘Women fiction’, it is one of the more unexpected items to be confiscated by Customs, who seized four copies in October 1984. Patricia Stubbs discusses the relationship between literary depictions of women and the roles and possibilities available to them in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As the copy on display here demonstrates, the book was also available in academic libraries. This is Senate House Library’s own copy and has been heavily marked up by studious readers.
