Gender, Surveillance, and Literature in the Romantic Period delves into the profound impact of surveillance on women during the Romantic era, exploring how it shaped their experiences in distinct and often uncomfortable ways. This groundbreaking book combines the insights of modern surveillance studies with Romantic scholarship to provide a fresh perspective on the era that gave rise to the concept of the Panopticon. Through a critical examination of emerging paradigms of surveillance directed at marginalized groups and the resistance to such monitoring, it offers readers a deeper understanding of Romantic-period texts and their relevance to contemporary debates surrounding asymmetries of power within gendered surveillance.
The book explores a range of works by writers such as Jane Austen, Charlotte Smith, Joanna Baillie, Lord Byron, and Thomas De Quincey, shedding light on the societal pressures and constraints that women faced during this period. By examining the ways in which surveillance made women increasingly visible and vulnerable, the book challenges prevailing narratives and offers a new understanding of the complexities and nuances of their experiences.
Gender, Surveillance, and Literature in the Romantic Period is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of surveillance, literature, Romanticism, gender politics, and anyone interested in exploring important strands of women's experience. It provides a rich and nuanced analysis that adds depth and complexity to our understanding of the Romantic era and its enduring impact on women's lives.
