Description

Ella Hepworth Dixon (1857-1932) was a prolific writer whose diverse career spanning over forty years encompassed journalism, criticism, essays, short stories, novels, magazine editing, drama, and autobiography. Though initially popular, Dixon's literary contributions faded from public consciousness for decades, overshadowed by time and changing tastes. Valerie Fehlbaum's comprehensive study resurrects Dixon's legacy and provides essential insight into both her life and work, whilst examining the broader phenomenon of the 'New Woman' writer that Dixon epitomised during the nineteenth century. This scholarly exploration reveals how Dixon navigated multiple literary genres and professional roles, offering readers a nuanced understanding of her contributions to women's writing and cultural history. The Nineteenth Century Series positions this biography within the critical context of its era, making it invaluable for students of literature, women's studies, and Victorian cultural history.
