Description

Explore the complex life of Richard Polwhele through this scholarly study from Routledge. While many recognize Polwhele only for his famous attack on radical women writers in The Unsex'd Females, this book looks beyond that single work to reveal a multifaceted writer. Polwhele was a historian, translator, memoirist, and poet who lived as a Cornish clergyman and JP. This text recovers the lost aspects of Polwhele by examining his wide-ranging written output, including sermons, open letters, and headstone verse. By using previously unexamined texts and manuscript sources, the book places Polwhele within the loyalist tradition of British Romantic culture. It offers an archipelagic understanding of the vitality found in his work, making it a necessary resource for students and scholars of literary history and Romanticism.
