Description
Trade Review"Splendid edition."--D. Van Leer, University of California, Davis "Very useful to have this text available and so intelligently edited."--E.N. Feltskog, University of Wisconsin "This series is quickly becoming indispensable to teachers and scholars of earlier American literature. Female Quixotism is not only a worthy book in its own right, but a marvelous tool for debunking commonly held assumptions about the limits of women's voices and literary visions in the eighteenth-and early nineteenth centuries. This book is a multi-layered treasure!"--Liahna Babener, Montana State Univ. "It is good to see an edition of this significant text in print. I intend to use it in both undergraduate and graduate courses this Fall semester."--John Samson, Texas Tech University "Invaluable for getting early American literature into focus."--Paul Kane, Vasser College "The book has merit as an intriguing early example of American comic writers dealing with sentimentality in a realistic world. Students of American humor will wish to read this book and its brief but informative introduction."--To Wit, James Madison University "A wonderful book . . . can be used well in a variety of English courses."--Dr. Marion Perry, Erie Community College-South "I used this last year in my early American lit. course and I will use it again next quarter. The students loved it. It really works well in dialogue with Franklin and Brown, as well as other women novelists from this era. I'm glad this text is available."--David W. Newton, West Georgia College
