Description

This scholarly volume from Routledge examines how gender and femininity shaped utopian thought during the Enlightenment, with particular focus on colonial utopias. The collection brings together critical essays analysing English and French utopian writing from the eighteenth century, featuring texts by pioneering women writers Sarah Scott, Sarah Fielding, and Isabelle de Charriere alongside works by male authors Paltock and Montesquieu. The contributors explore the intersection of gender construction, women's literary contributions, and utopian discourse, offering fresh perspectives on how symbolic femininity influenced Enlightenment utopian visions. By centring women's voices and colonial utopias within this literary tradition, the essays fundamentally reshape contemporary understanding of eighteenth-century utopianism and its cultural significance.
