商品簡介
Garofalo (English, U. of Oklahoma) offers a new understanding of erotic love as represented in British Romantic literature by examining ways that writers of the period used erotic love to challenge the traditional political and economic narratives and gender stereotypes of the time. How women interact with the economy and the concept of commodity figures prominently, with some additional consideration given to female desire as directly challenging rather than transcending capitalist economics. Each section addresses an individual work and relates it to a concept in the thesis with in-depth sociopolitical and literary analysis. Annotation c2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
