Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book examines apparently dichotomous aspects of Gaskell s short stories: her failed fathers and her travel writing. The analysis links these themes by examining the ways in which Gaskell used a complex mix of unstable cultural ideas to demonstrate the fragility of home and family life and to challenge gendered norms.The analysis of Gaskell s fictional fathers is considered in the context of nineteenth-century debates about the role of fathers within the home. Fathers in Gaskell s stories are presented as a disruptive force, breaking rather than creating a stable, secure family environment. Their behaviour becomes a motivator for travel as an escape from home. Travel also posed a transgressive challenge to the domestic environment and to gendered norms. Women travel writers were particularly vulnerable to accusations of exaggeration and falsehood. By incorporating themes of travel into her fiction, Gaskell was able to produce texts that are arguably richer than more straightforward travel accounts. In the texts discussed, Gaskell explores the ways in which travel, whether undertaken willingly or reluctantly, requires women to negotiate a physical, geographical and emotional space.The short stories examined in this book illustrate Gaskell s narrative hybridity and the ways in which her creative synthesis allows her to subtly challenge existing social and cultural hegemonies. Above all, the texts show her consistent resistance to patriarchal control and her commitment to a more equal and fluid society centred on home and the family.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book re-locates Elizabeth Gaskell's 'smaller stories' in the literary and cultural context of the nineteenth century. While Gaskell is recognised as one of the major novelists of her time, the short stories that make up a large proportion of her published work have not yet received the critical attention they deserve. This study re-claims them as an indispensable part of her literary output that enables us to better contextualize and assess her achievement holistically as a highly-skilled woman of letters. The periodicals in which Gaskell's shorter pieces were published offer a microcosm of nineteenth-century society, and Gaskell took full advantage of the medium to apply a consistent and barbed challenge to cultural and gendered constructs of roles and social behaviour. Although her eminently readable prose still flows easily in her short stories, it is less likely to elide the sharp corners of domestic violence, the disabling experiences of women, the pain of death and loss, andthe complications of family life.…
