Description

Explore the connection between living spaces and creativity in Domesticity and Design in American Women's Lives and Literature. This Routledge study examines how four influential American women writers from the mid-nineteenth to the early-twentieth century engaged with the concept of home. Author Hellman examines the lives of independent female authors who maintained autonomous relationships with their domestic environments. The text looks at how these writers often relocated to start new creative processes through designing and decorating, or moved frequently to avoid domestic obligations. By analyzing the works of Stowe, Alcott, Cather, and Wharton, this book provides insight into how these women wrote female characters with unique relationships to their surroundings. It is a detailed look at how domestic space influenced both the real lives and the literary creations of these significant historical figures.
