Nonconformist Women Writers, 1720-1840, Part I (set)

'the anthology has the potential to supplement the predominantly masculine-centred histories of Baptist communities and culture, and to balance current scholarly emphasis in Dissenting histories in Unitarian women writers...the wide variety of genres represented, will no doubt also contribute to ongoing reassessments of the place of religion in literature and of the relationship between manuscript and print culture, between family affiliations and public allegiances.' The Year's Work in English Studies 'Scholars of eighteenth- and nineteenth literature, as well as cultural historians and historians of women and religion will find here an extraordinary new source of materials, carefully edited, thoroughly annotated, and elegantly presented' New Books Online 19
