2	Double the Novels, Half the Recognition: Mary Elizabeth Braddon's Contribution to the Evolution of the Victorian Novel. Baker, Lori Elizabeth 06 May 2006 (has links) Why do we read what we read? Janice Radway examines works that were not popular in an author's time period, but now are affecting the construction of the canon. In her own words, Radway seeks to "establish [popular literature] as something other than a watered-down version of a more authentic high culture [and] to present the middlebrow positively as a culture with its own particular substance and intellectual coherence" (208). Mary Elizabeth Braddon's novels were considered "middlebrow" and were very popular in Victorian England. Along with this facet, her heroines were considered controversial because they were not portrayed as what would be labeled a "proper female" in Victorian society. The popularity of her novels, her heroines, along with facets of her personal life, keep her from being recognized as one of the foremost authors in the Victorian period. sensation fiction madwoman in the attic victorian novelists Mary Elizabeth Braddon Arts and Humanities English Language and Literature Literature in English, British Isles
3	Madwoman on the Screen: Streaming Forms of Feminine Power Schreiber, Kassandra I. 13 December 2022 (has links) This paper explores how the formal aspects of streaming platforms create a female inheritance that helps foster multiple representations of femininity and womanhood which empowers women. Building off of Sandra Gilbert and Susan Gubar's Madwoman in the Attic, the paper argues that because streaming platforms produce original content, are a space for multiplicity and interconnection, and act as a type of archive, they can build a female inheritance. The combination of these attributes offer a widespread emergence of multiple stories that valorize women and what is socially coded as feminine, creating a creative network that improves the representation of women as well as their opportunity to work in the visual media industry. Three case studies are explored in connection to these ideas including Amazon Prime's The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and the Netflix original series, Followers, and The OA. streaming women television feminism representations of women women in television Netflix Amazon Prime madwoman in the attic female inheritance creative network Arts and Humanities
