Twelve of the centurys most successful women writers provide the focus for Mary Kelleys landmark study: Maria Cummins, Caroline Howard Gilman, Caroline Lee Hentz, Mary Jane Holmes, Maria McIntosh, Sara Parton, Catharine Maria Sedgwick, E.D.E.N. Southworth, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Mary Virginia Terhune, Susan Warner, and Augusta Evans Wilson. These women shared more than commercial success. Collectively they created fictions that Kelley terms literary domesticity, books that both embraced and called into question the complicated expectations shaping the lives of so many nineteenth-century women. Matured in a culture of domesticity and dismissed by a male writing establishment, they struggled to reconcile public recognition with the traditional roles of wife and mother.</p><p>Drawing on the 200 volumes of published prose and on the letters, diaries, and journals of these writers, Kelley explores the tensions that accompanied their unprecedented literary success. In a new preface, she discusses the explosion in the scholarship on writing women since the original 1984 publication of <em>Private Woman, Public Stage</em> and reflects on the books ongoing relevance.</p>...2835792Private Woman, Public Stage584615https://www.gandhi.com.mx/private-woman-public-stage-9781469617381/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3257370/a72ad5b4-b12f-4b31-954d-e77de31e1df7.jpg?v=638385106220130000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20179781469617381_W3siaWQiOiIzN2MyNDQzZi1lZTAxLTRhMzQtYjQ0Zi04MDNkMDQ3ZTFkODkiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjU2NSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjI5LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjUzNiwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTEtMDFUMTQ6MDA6MDBaIiwidG8iOiIyMDI0LTExLTMwVDIzOjU5OjU5WiIsInJlZ2lvbiI6Ik1YIiwiaXNQcmVvcmRlciI6ZmFsc2V9LHsiaWQiOiIwNjI2Mjg1Mi1jMWMwLTRjOWYtYTg1Yi03MGIxZWM1MDcxYTAiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjU5OSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjU5LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjU0MCwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTItMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9781469617381_<p>In the decades spanning the nineteenth century, thousands of women entered the literary marketplace.
