In this thesis, I analyze literary histories published between 1845 and 1914 to demonstrate a pattern of reception regarding the works of Bettine von Arnim. I will ask how this writer was able to express her radical social-political attitude in writing--relatively unscathed by the repressions of restoration. It will be apparent that a female political author, considered less of a risk to society, faced fewer dangers of censorship than her male counterparts. At the same time, 19th century definitions of Bourgeois women's behavior also served to marginalize her work. She was called a "child" not to be taken seriously, placed in the shadow of men (Goethe, Clemens Brentano, Achim von Arnim), and her life was generally considered before her work. This placement of the woman outside the realm of the important, her construction as other, caused her exclusion from the canon.
