Funded Activity Summary

Portrait of a Lady: Victorian Women's Novels and the Construction of Female Subjectivity. This country enjoys an excellent reputation in the areas of feminism and Victorian Studies. This project will help keep Australia at the forefront of international scholarship in these fields by making a significant original contribution and by achieving the high level of visibility provided by a monograph with a major international publisher. More generally, 19th century England was a crucible for modern conceptions of the self, and by examining the contribution of women writers to theories of identity and self-construction, the project will help us to learn more about ourselves.
