Paperback. Zustand: Good. First published in 1801, Female Quixotism is a boisterous anti-romance and literary satire, in which Dorcas Sheldon (`Dorcasina') sets out to discover for herself the kind of passionate love affair portrayed in her favourite novels. Female Quixotism was written during a period of self-definition for the fledgeling American republic. Issues of class, gender, race and isolationism still relevant today are confronted in a manner unusual in other contemporary works, which frequently attacked romantic novels, even as they employed the sentimental and picaresque devices of the genre. Tenney uses literary references from Richardson, Sterne, and Milton, and, of course, Cervantes. However, it is as a tragi-comic parody of the limited choices available to women in a society founded on the principle that all men are created equal, that Tenney's Female Quixotism really stands apart from similar contemporary works.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Female Quixotism V3: Exhibited In The Romantic Opinions And Extravagant Adventures Of Corcasina Sheldon (1841) is a novel written by Tabitha Gilman Tenney. The book is the third volume in the Female Quixotism series and features the titular character, Corcasina Sheldon, as the protagonist.The novel is set in the early 19th century and follows Corcasina as she becomes enamored with the romantic ideals and adventures of chivalry and knight-errantry. She becomes convinced that she is a knight herself and sets out on a series of extravagant adventures, often with disastrous results.Throughout the book, Corcasina's delusions of grandeur and romanticism are contrasted with the realities of her situation, highlighting the dangers of unchecked idealism and the importance of rationality and pragmatism.The novel is a satirical take on the romanticism and chivalric ideals of the time, and serves as a commentary on the role of women in society and the dangers of unrealistic expectations. It is a humorous and engaging read that provides insight into the cultural attitudes and values of the early 19th century.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
