Description
Summary:Since The Feminist Press reprinted Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper" in 1973, this classic narrative of confinement and madness has been hailed by feminist critics and others as essential to the canon of North American literature. Now, "The Captive Imagination" brings together 100 years of critical discussion, from the ambivalence of William Dean Howells to the feminist accolades of the 1970s and 1980s, from semiotics to the history of women's health care. This critical edition brings into focus the story's varied contexts and encourages new and diverse ways of seeing its history, imagery, and plot. -- From publisher's description.
