Description
Beatrix Potter: Writing in Code is the first comprehensive book-length study of Beatrix Potter's complete works, exploring how the inventor of the contemporary picture book wove symbolism throughout her novels published at the turn of the twentieth century. This scholarly analysis by Daphne Kutzer examines Potter's entire oeuvre in relation to her private life, revealing the depth of coded meaning in her writing. The book connects Potter's symbolic storytelling to her personal development as an independent woman and writer, investigating her complex relationship with domesticity, Unitarianism, and the socio-political issues of late nineteenth and early twentieth century society. Essential reading for scholars and enthusiasts of children's literature, this study uncovers how Potter's picture books, still beloved today, reflect her struggles and aspirations during a transformative period in literary history.
