Johns Hopkins University Press Studies in Eighteenth-Century Culture
The essays in this volume share a common concern with investigating Enlightenment categories of historical understanding and determining how these categories helped shape Enlightenment culture. The contributors address the question of how eighteenth-century writers make sense of the past-how they interpret it, give it meaning and form, and deploy it for their own practical, aesthetic, and ideological purposes. Contributors and contents: Frank Palmeri, Conjectural History and the Origins of Sociology Stuart Peterfreund, From the Forbidden to the Familiar: The Way of Natural Theology Leading up to and beyond the Long Eighteenth Century Tony C.

Bucknell University Press,U.S. Women and Music in the Age of Austen
Women and Music in the Age of Austen highlights the central role women played in musical performance, composition, reception, and representation, and analyzes its formative and lasting effect on Georgian culture. This interdisciplinary collection of essays from musicology, literary studies, and gender studies challenges the conventional historical categories that marginalize women’s experience from Austen’s time. Contesting the distinctions between professional and amateur musicians, public and domestic sites of musical production, and performers and composers of music, the contributors reveal how women’s widespread involvement in the Georgian musical scene allowed for self-expression, artistic influence, and access to communities that transcended the boundaries of gender, class, and nationality. This volume’s breadth of focus advances our understanding of a period that witnessed a musical flourishing, much of it animated by female hands and voices. Published by Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.
