Description

Explore the complex evolution of female imagery during the Decadence era (1850-1910) in this scholarly work from Peter Lang. This volume examines how the destructive figure of Salome dominated the cultural landscape in France and Great Britain, serving as a haunting symbol of malveillant femininity. Beyond the archetype of the fatal dancer, the book presents a study of the inverted image: a benevolent and edifying femininity. Through the lens of sacrifice, the text explores how these different representations facilitated the transition between historical eras. The author analyzes a wide range of figures, including mythological, biblical, and historical silhouettes. By examining the writings of Jean Lorrain, Marie Corelli, Henry Rider-Haggard, and Renee Vivien, this study provides a deep look into the literary and cultural shifts of the late 19th century. It is an essential resource for those studying literary theory, history, and the changing perceptions of gender in European literature.
