Of Women and the Essay brings together forty-six
American and British women essayists whose work spans nearly four
centuries. The contributions of these essayists prove that women have been
significant participants in the essay tradition since the genres modern
beginnings in the sixteenth century Many of these essayists, such as
Eliza Haywood, Fanny Fern, Gertrude Bustill Mossell, Agnes Repplier,
and Alice Meynell, achieved significant success as writers within whatever
essay form ruled the day; others bent the rules, though often imperceptibly,
to make room for themselves. Collectively they represent a missing piece
in the larger history of the essay.
Editor Jenny Spinner contextualizes the broad range of literary essays
included within the chronological development of the genre. She makes
a compelling argument that women have constructed their own tradition
in the essay genre, often utilizing periodic traits of the essay to their own
advantage. At the same time, she suggests that the personal essay s demands
on the essayist required both a public and personal authorization that
proved challenging for women essayists in general and for women of color
in particular. The appendix catalogs the works of nearly two hundred female
essayists and should inspire further reading. As a whole, the volume lifts
women writers from the cutting-room floor of essay scholarship and
returns them to their rightful place in the essay canon.
