Produktbeschreibung

This book revisits heated discussions and adds new perspectives in light of growing awareness of Manley's contributions to 18th century literature. The methodological approaches incorporate traditional investigations, such as historical research, gender theory, and comparative close readings, as well as recently influential theories like geocriticism and affect studies, and visit works that have had less attention. This book forges new paths in many underdeveloped directions, including her work's exploration of foreign locales, the power dynamics between individuals and in relation to states, sexuality beyond heteronormativity, and the shifting operations and influences of genre.
