Description

Explore the complex relationship between literature and the history of sexuality with The Ideology of Conduct (Routledge Revivals). Originally published in 1987, this collection brings together scholars from various academic fields to examine how literature has been used to instruct women on desirability. This volume investigates how middle-class writers moved away from emulating aristocratic behavior to create new standards of desire. By focusing on female conduct, these writers formulated alternative social norms that avoided direct political controversy while still exerting influence. This collection reveals how writing for and about women functioned as a significant tool in shaping social and cultural standards. Ideal for students and researchers in literary theory, history, and gender studies, this Routledge Revival edition provides deep insights into how texts influence human behavior and social structures throughout history, from the medieval period to the modern day.
