Recenzii
'This is the smart, timely, interdisciplinary book that Anne Lister deserves. The range of topics and approaches by the authors is well-suited to their dynamic subject, who herself was never contained by the norms of her day. An essential volume of new essays about the most prolific diarist and chronicler of lesbian love of her time.' Jen Manion, Amherst College
'Anne Lister was an aristocratic woman who embraced her masculinity, flirted and more with women in her orbit and kept coded diaries her whole life. These diaries are long overdue for sustained analysis. This collection of essays promises to remedy what has been an overlooked treasure trove of information about sex and intimacies between elite women in the late 18th and early 19th centuries and they decode the life, the loves, the genders and the social worlds of the inventive and marvelous Anne Lister.' Jack Halberstam, author of Female Masculinity, Duke University Press
