La novela realista y naturalista decimonónica quedó fascinada por la histeria y la representó a través de múltiples y complejas heroínas encorsetadas en un papel de mujer trastornada. Este libro indaga en los orígenes del estrecho vínculo mantenido a través de los tiempos entre locura y mujer, para comprender mejor la realidad de un siglo XIX que construyó la imagen femenina desde su categorización de histérica. Los ejemplos aquí tratados nos recuerdan la incomprensión a la que tuvo que sobrevivir el alma femenina en el Ochocientos y las consecuencias que ello tuvo sobre la imagen de la mujer en la iconografía y la literatura.

"This book studies early modern Spanish broadsheets, tabloid newspapers of the day which educated, entertained, and indoctrinated readers, much like today's "fake news. Parker Aronson incorporates a socio-historical approach in which she considers crime and deviance committed by women in Early Modern Spain and the correlation between crime and the growth of urban centers.""--

Sister Carrie (1900), Theodore Dreiser's first novel, is one of the seminal works in American literature because of Dreiser's ground-breaking dramatization of the tragic life led by men and women in the modern American city. The introduction by Donald Pizer describes in detail the biographical and historical background of the novel and its critical reputation. The four original essays in this 1991 volume not only touch on long-established approaches to Sister Carrie but also reflect a number of the concerns of scholarly and critical movements. Each of the essays is a self-standing examination of a major area of interest in the novel, including such topics as the impact of Dreiser's own life on the creation of Carrie and Hurstwood, the relationship of Carrie and the theater, and Dreiser's naturalism and his narrative technique.
