Attribution
Helene Moglen
Publication Details
Book, University of California Press, 2001

Description
Helene Moglen offers a revisionary feminist argument about the origins, cultural function, and formal structure of the English novel. While most critics and historians have associated the novel’s emergence and development with the burgeoning of capitalism and the rise of the middle classes, Moglen contends that the novel princi- pally came into being in order to manage the social and psychological strains of the modern sex-gender system.

Attribution
Wendy S. Jones
Publication Details
Book, University of Toronto Press, 2005
Description
In eighteenth and nineteenth-century England, consensual marriages became increasingly popular, according women a ‘contractual subjectivity’ in which the liberal ideal of individual choice was key.
