| Zusammenfassung: | In Subjects of Slavery, Agents of Change Kari J. Winter compares the ways in which two marginalized genres of women's writing - female Gothic novels and slave narratives - represent the oppression of women and their resistance to oppression. Analyzing the historical contexts in which Gothic novels and slave narratives were written, Winter shows that both types of writing expose the sexual politics at the heart of patriarchal culture and both represent the terrifying aspects of life for women. Female Gothic novelists such as Emily and Charlotte Bronte, Ann Radcliffe, and Mary Shelley uncover the terror of the familiar - the routine brutality and injustice of the patriarchal family and of conventional religion, as well as the intersecting oppressions of gender and class They represent the world as, in Mary Wollstonecraft's words, "a vast prison" in which women are "born slaves." Writing during the same period, Harriet Jacobs, Nancy Prince, and other former slaves in the United States expose the "all-pervading corruption" of southern slavery. Their narratives combine strident attacks on the patriarchal order with criticism of white women's own racism and classism. These texts challenge white women to repudiate their complicity in a racist culture and to join their black sisters in a war against the "peculiar institution." Winter explores as well the ways that Gothic heroines and slave women resisted subjugation. Moments of escape from the horrors of patriarchal domination provide the protagonists with essential periods of respite from pain. Because this escape is never more than temporary, however, both types of narrative conclude tensely The novelists refuse to affirm either hope or despair, thereby calling into question conventional endings of marriage or death. And although slave narratives were typically framed by white-authored texts, containment of the black voice did not diminish the inherent revolutionary conclusion of antislavery writing. According to Winter, both Gothic novels and slave narratives suggest that although women are victims and mediators of the dominant order they also can become agents of historical change |

Univ. of Georgia Press 1992 XII, 172 S. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier Teilw. zugl.: Diss. In Subjects of Slavery, Agents of Change Kari J. Winter compares the ways in which two marginalized genres of women's writing - female Gothic novels and slave narratives - represent the oppression of women and their resistance to oppression. Analyzing the historical contexts in which Gothic novels and slave narratives were written, Winter shows that both types of writing expose the sexual politics at the heart of patriarchal culture and both represent the terrifying aspects of life for women. Female Gothic novelists such as Emily and Charlotte Bronte, Ann Radcliffe, and Mary Shelley uncover the terror of the familiar - the routine brutality and injustice of the patriarchal family and of conventional religion, as well as the intersecting oppressions of gender and class They represent the world as, in Mary Wollstonecraft's words, "a vast prison" in which women are "born slaves." Writing during the same period, Harriet Jacobs, Nancy Prince, and other former slaves in the United States expose the "all-pervading corruption" of southern slavery. Their narratives combine strident attacks on the patriarchal order with criticism of white women's own racism and classism. These texts challenge white women to repudiate their complicity in a racist culture and to join their black sisters in a war against the "peculiar institution." Winter explores as well the ways that Gothic heroines and slave women resisted subjugation. Moments of escape from the horrors of patriarchal domination provide the protagonists with essential periods of respite from pain. Because this escape is never more than temporary, however, both types of narrative conclude tensely The novelists refuse to affirm either hope or despair, thereby calling into question conventional endings of marriage or death. And although slave narratives were typically framed by white-authored texts, containment of the black voice did not diminish the inherent revolutionary conclusion of antislavery writing. According to Winter, both Gothic novels and slave narratives suggest that although women are victims and mediators of the dominant order they also can become agents of historical change Geschichte 1790-1865 gnd rswk-swf Esclavage - Dans la littérature ram Esclaves - États-Unis - Biographies - Histoire et critique ram Femmes - Dans la littérature ram Femmes dans la littérature Littérature américaine - Femmes écrivains - Histoire et critique ram Littérature américaine - Histoire et critique Littérature anglaise - Femmes écrivains - Histoire et critique ram Littérature d'épouvante anglaise - Histoire et critique ram Littérature frénétique Noires - Dans la littérature ram Noires américaines - Dans la littérature ram Noires américaines dans la littérature Pouvoir (Sciences sociales) dans la littérature Roman anglais - Femmes écrivains - Histoire et critique ram Roman anglais - Histoire et critique Roman gothique ram Récits d'horreur anglais - Histoire et critique Rôle selon le sexe - Dans la littérature ram Rôle selon le sexe dans la littérature Slaves - États-Unis - Biographies - Histoire et critique Écrits d'esclaves - États-Unis - Histoire et critique ram Écrits d'esclaves américains - Histoire et critique Écrits de femmes américains - Histoire et critique Écrits de femmes anglais - Histoire et critique African American women in literature American literature Women authors History and criticism English fiction Women authors History and criticism Gothic revival (Literature Great Britain Gothic revival (Literature) United States Horror tales, English History and criticism Power (Social sciences) in literature Sex role in literature Slaves English-speaking countries Intellectual life Slaves United States Biography History and criticism Slaves' writings, American History and criticism Women and literature English-speaking countries Autobiografische Literatur (DE-588)4143683-0 gnd rswk-swf Gothic novel (DE-588)4157930-6 gnd rswk-swf Sklavin (DE-588)4204353-0 gnd rswk-swf Frauenroman (DE-588)4134195-8 gnd rswk-swf Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf Frau (DE-588)4018202-2 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien USA USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content (DE-588)4113937-9 Hochschulschrift gnd-content Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 s Frauenroman (DE-588)4134195-8 s Gothic novel (DE-588)4157930-6 s Frau (DE-588)4018202-2 s Geschichte 1790-1865 z DE-604 USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Sklavin (DE-588)4204353-0 s Autobiografische Literatur (DE-588)4143683-0 s HEBIS Datenaustausch application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=005087523&sequence=000002&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
