|
| Fanny Lewald: Between Rebellion and Renunciation provides the first comprehensive account in English of the life and work of Fanny Lewald (1811-1889), tracing the way she positioned herself - sometimes precariously - between rebellion and renunciation. All genres are considered: novels and stories, autobiography, travel literature, essays, diaries, and letters. Widely recognized as one of the early German advocates of women's right to education and work, this study places Lewald's views on these issues in a broadly comparative cultural context. This book will, therefore, be of interest not only to specialists in German literature, but also to students and scholars of European cultural and social history, Jewish studies, and women's studies. |

| Rezensionen |
|
| «In this, the first major publication in English on Fanny Lewald, Margaret Ward provides a keenly thoughtful and wonderfully written examination of the life and work of a nineteenth-century German woman writer and social critic. Her study is firmly contextualized within its specific cultural and historical location, but it is also convincingly anchored in present-day feminist and cultural-studies thinking. In this very successful negotiation between past and present, Professor Ward has given us a book that can appeal to a broad audience.» (Ruth-Ellen B. Joeres, Professor of German and Women's Studies, Director of Graduate Studies, University of Minnesota) |
