Abstract:
The paper analyzes the key philosophical contexts and subtexts of M. Shelley’s most famous work “Frankenstein”. According to the author of the article, the philosophical layer of this Gothic novel consists of ideas and maxims that directly inherit the concepts of the worldview platforms of Plato, J.-J. Russo, G. W. F. Hegel, K. F. Volney, W. Godwin, M. Wollstonecraft, as well as the philosophy of the New Age and romanticism. An assumption is made, on the one hand, about the proximity of some worldview attitudes of these philosophers and the author of “Frankenstein” and, on the other hand, abou

From its inception, the French Revolution was experienced as an unprecedented spectacle, received by many with overwhelming enthusiasm but also by waves of panic and terror. Among the supporters of the Revolution who rushed to Paris after 1789 were two women writers who have left an important mark in literary history: Helen Maria Williams (1762-1827), a poet, novelist and war correspondent ante litteram, author of the bestselling series of Letters Written in France, published in London between 1790 and 1796, which offered first-hand accounts and testimonies written in a captivating, personal s

On 22 July 1823 William Godwin addressed the following in a letter to Mary Shelley, who was returning to London after five years on the Continent:It is a curious circumstance that a play is just announced, to be performed at the English Opera House in the Strand next Monday, entitled, Presumption, or the Fate of Frankenstein.

Abstract:
In Eighteenth-Century Medical Discourse and Sensible Bodies: Sensibility and Selfhood in the Works of William Godwin, Mary Wollstonecraft and Mary Shelley, I examine how medical, philosophical and theological discourses on sensibility and on selfhood mutually informed one another in the historical moment of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries in England. The key to unravelling the complex notion of sensibility principally lies in the medical discourse that investigated the source of motion, knowledge, and moral feelings. I focus on the medical tracts which can be seen as discurs

Abstract:
This dissertation describes the genesis of the idea of femicide in a period of English and American Letters, the last decade of the eighteenth century and the first half of the nineteenth century, in which patriarchal values and constructions were entering a crisis which resulted in the revision of the idea of gender—in a way, that was the period in which the concept of gender was coded. In the first chapter, I look at the way the term femicide was first given currency in the English language in 1827 through Robert Macnish’s The Confessions of an Unexecuted Femicide, a fiction disguised

Her radical novels, Memoirs of Emma Courtney (1796) and The Victim of Prejudice (1799), revise the conventions of eighteenth-century fiction while condemning the ways in which a patriarchal culture exploits and victimizes women. Hays was also the author of Letters and Essays, Moral and Miscellaneous (1793) and An Appeal to the Men of Great Britain in Behalf of Wcimen (1798).

All these authors criticize slavery—or at least some aspects of it—but they do so in intriguingly different ways. Three themes are particularly important in the English debate about slavery: arguments for the humanity and personhood of Black people, the origins of racist beliefs or biases, and the alleged na

Abstract:
‘Introduction’ provides an overview of Jane Austen and her works. Today, Austen is one of the most securely established literary classics in English. One explanation for Austen’s global popularity lies in her capacity to speak directly to readers navigating elaborate social conventions or rule-bound environments. By focusing in most of her novels on heroines who occupy positions of socioeconomic disadvantage in relation to those around them, and on the difficulties presented to them by the assumptions, conventions, and practices of their worlds, Austen converts courtship fiction to purposes mo
