Women Dri­ven Mad: Wom­ens Mad­ness in Eng­lish and Amer­i­can Lit­er­a­ture
This book offers an in-depth analy­sis as to how and why women have been wide­ly asso­ci­at­ed with mad­ness since ancient times. The first part of the book com­pris­es a his­tor­i­cal sur­vey of var­i­ous per­cep­tions of mad­ness across the cen­turies, while the sec­ond part of the book cov­ers a wide selec­tion of lit­er­ary works by Amer­i­can and Eng­lish writ­ers who dealt with this sub­ject in their works. In this part of the book, the authors exam­ine select­ed works of lit­er­a­ture from a fem­i­nist per­spec­tive by also draw­ing on the works of influ­en­tial the­o­rists of fem­i­nist crit­i­cism. The authors fur­ther show how these writ­ers, who have been influ­enced by var­i­ous philoso­phers and the­o­reti­cians, crit­i­cal­ly exam­ine women’s mad­ness in their fic­tion.
