La salud en la historia del feminismo

'. . .a book that contains such a wealth of material and perceptive discussion...' - English Studies

'Miles offers a nuanced understanding of Romanticism's origins, cultural manifestations, and legacy. Romantic Misfits makes important points about the limitations of the historical models that have organized Romantic studies, and it attests to the rewards of critically examining scholarly clichés and cultural givens.' - Nicole Reynolds, Eighteenth-Century Fiction

'Robert Miles's Romantic Misfits is an erudite, far-ranging reconsideration of Romanticism that cleverly fuses both old and new conceptualizations of the period. . . Romantic Misfits remains an outstanding, learned and deeply thoughtful achievement, presenting an updated narrative of Romantic critical history that will solidify the reader's grasp of the interplay and progress of seminal modes of thought.' - Celestine Woo, Romantic Circles Review

'This project creates the opportunity for a wide-ranging discussion on the vexed issue of the 'canon', and Miles's five chapters consider a comprehensive selection of writers.' - English Studies

'Robert Miles's wonderful new book, Romantic Misfits, examines the dialectic of inclusion and exclusion in the formation of the Romantic poetic canon. . . Miles's wide-ranging chapters on W.H. Ireland's Shakespeare forgeries, Wordsworth's Gothic, Thomas Carlyle's and Coleridge's abjects, the Romantic novel's technologies, and Anna Laetitia Barbauld's feminism are chock-full of magical and fresh material.' - Studies in English Literature, 49:4

'His interrogation of these processes of selection and organization which have had such enduring impact, not just on the formation of the Romantic canon but more fundamentally, on our inherited ideas about literature itself, is driven by a shrewd blend of theoretical analysis (especially Pierre Bourdieu and Jurgen Habermas, though Miles helpfully reads the latter through J.L. Austen's speech act theory), historical contextualization, and subtle literary readings.' - Paul Keen, European Romantic Review

'Professor Miles' striking Romantic Misfits is a very important and newly informative - book for scholars of both British Romantic and English 'Gothic' writing. I believe that Gothicists and Romanticists at every level of serious study should and will be unpacking this intense, deeply theoretical, and most revealing book for many years to come.' - Jerrold E. Hogle, University Distinguished Professor, The University of Arizona, USA

'Romantic Misfits is a truly groundbreaking study of Romantic literature and its relationship to the institutions and media of the Enlightenment. More than a study of how the Romantic canon took shape, Miles's book is an inquiry into the nature of canonicity itself, that is, why highly unconventional discourses become the basis for conventional thinking. It has fundamentally changed the way I think about the Romantic period and the critical ethos that is its legacy.' - Alexander Dick, Assistant Professor, University of British Columbia, Canada

Praise for Good Night, Mr. WodehouseTop Ten Book of 2015 in the Wall Street Journal, and Winner of the Midwest Book Awards and the Langum Prize for Historical Fiction&#147;Her novels are a reliably inviting world, full of friendly faces and intimate dramas. However you first make your way to Harvester, you&#8217;ll want to return.&#8221;&#151;The Wall Street Journal"Well-told and appealing . . . Nell emerges as a likable, resilient protagonist in Sullivan&#8217;s inspiring novel, which should find its way onto the reading lists of book clubs."&#151;Publishers Weekly"Reviving characters from previous novels, Sullivan (Gardenias, 2005) presents a fresh glimpse into small-town life, and gently but piercingly acknowledges the essential values of kindness and compassion that foster courage in the face of hardship."&#151;Booklist"Sullivan's canvas may be small, but her message is universal: books--including this one--have the power to amuse, console and transform lives."&#151;Shelf Awareness&#147;Sullivan describes small-town life through the eyes of an intelligent, generous narrator who fights off gossip, pettiness and tragedy with compassion, perseverance and forgiveness. Who wouldn&#8217;t want to spend a late-summer afternoon or two in the company of such a person?&#8221;&#151;Minneapolis Star Tribune"Many of the characters in Sullivan's novels love education and reading. But Good Night, Mr. Wodehouse is her most explicit homage to the place books hold in our lives.&#8221;&#151;Saint Paul Pioneer Press"More than 40 years of history bookend a lifelong love affair with reading for the resilient heroine of Sullivan's latest novel set in Harvester, Minnesota. Nell's life experiences read like her book collection&#151;some are part of a series, some stand alone, and all are ultimately comforting and timeless."&#151;Kirkus"Reading Good Night, Mr. Wodehouse, I was reminded of the extraordinary novels of the late, great William Maxwell. Here too are large passions, sweeping love affairs, and deep friendships. A beautiful and profound novel."&#151;Margot Livesey, author of The Flight of Gemma Hardy"Good Night, Mr. Wodehouse is told with Faith Sullivan&#8217;s trademark warmth, wit and wisdom. Readers, prepare to be captivated."&#151;Lorna Landvik, author of Angry Houswives Eating Bon Bons"For all those fans of The Cape Ann, Gardenias, and The Empress of One: here is your priceless ticket back to Harvester, Minnesota. An extraordinary book."&#151;Julie Schumacher, author of Dear Committee Members
