Southworth, Ann Stephens, Mary Jane Holmes, and Laura Jean Libbey. These commercially successful writers helped to shape the popular tradition of serial magazine fiction by drawing on readers' tastes along with their cultural concerns. Their astonishing productivity led magazine editors and publishers to return to them repeatedly for more serials to be turned into even more novels, even as they reprinted these fictions under new titles. Dale Bauer analyzes how serials deployed the repetition of plots and the traumas representing the sources of women's anxieties and pain. Arguing that these novels provided temporary resolutions to the social, economic, and psychological tensions that readers faced, Bauer explains how this otherwise forgotten archive of fiction now offers an extraordinarily expanded range of women's literary effort from the nineteenth to the twentieth century"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women novelists, American $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Women novelists $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a American fiction $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Women and literature $z United States $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Women in literature $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Women $z United States $x Social conditions $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Serialized fiction $z United States $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Literature publishing $z United States $x History $y 19th century. 650 7 $a American fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807048 650 7 $a Literature publishing. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01000111 650 7 $a Serialized fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01113136 650 7 $a Women and literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177093 650 7 $a Women in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177912 650 7 $a Women novelists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178197 650 7 $a Women novelists, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178201 650 7 $a Women $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176947 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1800-1899 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Bauer, Dale M., $t Nineteenth-century american women's serial novels $b 1. $d New York : Cambridge University Press, 2020. $z 9781108761017 $w (DLC) 2019040436 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317031645.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CC0CAF9068DD11EA9C5A9E4D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
