| Zusammenfassung: | The writings and satire of Pope and Swift have aroused intense hostilities in women readers and feminists, both in their own day and ours, for their allegedly unsympathetic treatment of women. They have been accused of indifference to the plight of eighteenth-century women in a patriarchal society and even of exhibiting sexist and misogynistic attitudes in the case of the eighteenth-century woman writer Despite Pope's satirical depictions and often contemptuous treatment of a whole range of what he called the "variegations" of the female sensibility, he clearly enjoyed the company of women and placed high value on female friendships during his life. And regardless of Swift's habitual lashing out at "fair-sexing" and at the fulsome gallantries with which women are condescendingly depicted in such periodicals as the Spectator and in amatory verse, and in spite of his insistence that women be treated intellectually and socially on a par with men, feminists find evidence, in such works as Gulliver's Travels and the "scatological" poems, of fierce and deep antagonisms that seem to defy rationalization. Indeed, the very language and phrasing that the two men employed when expressing their praise of women seem only to make things worse. According to their detractors, such expressions are sexist and deny possibility of an independent female identity It is a case of damning with the wrong kind of praise. The essays in this volume challenge such antifeminist stereotypes and employ a variety of interpretative strategies that combine recent modes for critical inquiry with traditional historical and formalist readings. Besides discovering similarities between Pope and Swift and the women writers, the essayists also discovered a certain shared status as alienated, displaced, excluded, victimized, and even self-divided outsider figures |

| spelling | Pope, Swift and women writers ed. by Donald C. Mell Newark, Del. Univ. of Delaware Press [u.a.] 1996 252 S. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier The writings and satire of Pope and Swift have aroused intense hostilities in women readers and feminists, both in their own day and ours, for their allegedly unsympathetic treatment of women. They have been accused of indifference to the plight of eighteenth-century women in a patriarchal society and even of exhibiting sexist and misogynistic attitudes in the case of the eighteenth-century woman writer Despite Pope's satirical depictions and often contemptuous treatment of a whole range of what he called the "variegations" of the female sensibility, he clearly enjoyed the company of women and placed high value on female friendships during his life. And regardless of Swift's habitual lashing out at "fair-sexing" and at the fulsome gallantries with which women are condescendingly depicted in such periodicals as the Spectator and in amatory verse, and in spite of his insistence that women be treated intellectually and socially on a par with men, feminists find evidence, in such works as Gulliver's Travels and the "scatological" poems, of fierce and deep antagonisms that seem to defy rationalization. Indeed, the very language and phrasing that the two men employed when expressing their praise of women seem only to make things worse. According to their detractors, such expressions are sexist and deny possibility of an independent female identity It is a case of damning with the wrong kind of praise. The essays in this volume challenge such antifeminist stereotypes and employ a variety of interpretative strategies that combine recent modes for critical inquiry with traditional historical and formalist readings. Besides discovering similarities between Pope and Swift and the women writers, the essayists also discovered a certain shared status as alienated, displaced, excluded, victimized, and even self-divided outsider figures Pope, Alexander <1688-1744> - Pensée politique et sociale ram Pope, Alexander <1688-1744> - Personnages ram Swift, Jonathan <1667-1745> - Pensée politique et sociale ram Swift, Jonathan <1667-1745> - Personnages ram Pope, Alexander <1688-1744> Characters Women Pope, Alexander <1688-1744> Political and social views Swift, Jonathan <1667-1745> Characters Women Swift, Jonathan <1667-1745> Political and social views Pope, Alexander 1688-1744 (DE-588)118595741 gnd rswk-swf Swift, Jonathan 1667-1745 (DE-588)118620193 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1700-1800 Geschichte 1680-1780 gnd rswk-swf Femmes - Dans la littérature ram Femmes et littérature - Grande-Bretagne - 18e siècle ram Femmes écrivains anglaises - 18e siècle - Histoire et critique ram Littérature anglaise - 18e siècle - Histoire et critique ram Littérature anglaise - Femmes écrivains - 18e siècle - Histoire et critique ram Vrouwelijke auteurs gtt Frau Geschichte Schriftstellerin Authorship Sex differences History 18th century English literature Women authors History and criticism English literature 18th century History and criticism Verse satire, English History and criticism Women and literature Great Britain History 18th century Women in literature Schriftstellerin (DE-588)4053311-6 gnd rswk-swf Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Pope, Alexander 1688-1744 (DE-588)118595741 p Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Schriftstellerin (DE-588)4053311-6 s DE-604 Swift, Jonathan 1667-1745 (DE-588)118620193 p Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 s Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 s Geschichte 1680-1780 z Mell, Donald C.
