Description

Explore the cultural obsession with Salome across fin-de-siecle France and Britain through this scholarly examination of how destructive femininity defined an entire era. This volume traces how authors including Jean Lorrain, Marie Corelli, Henry Rider-Haggard, and Renee Vivien constructed contrasting representations of benevolent femininity as the inverse of fatal seduction. By examining mythological, biblical, and historical female figures, the study reveals how literary depictions of nurturing, self-sacrificing womanhood served as a crucial counterpoint to the femme fatale archetype. Published by Peter Lang as part of the Romanticism and After in France series, this work provides essential insight into how 19th-century writers navigated contradictory ideals of feminine virtue and transgression during the cultural transition between eras.

Key Features

L'Anti-Salome examines representations of benevolent femininity across literature from 1850 to 1910, offering scholarly analysis of gender constructs in Decadent-era writing.

The study analyses works by major authors Jean Lorrain, Marie Corelli, Henry Rider-Haggard, and Renee Vivien to trace contrasting depictions of female archetypes.

Peter Lang's publication positions this volume as part of the established Romanticism and After in France academic series, number 29 in the sequence.

The text explores how mythological, biblical, and historical female figures functioned as literary devices to express anxieties about feminine power during cultural transition periods.
