Recenzii

Originally published in 1823, Valperga is probably Mary Shelley’s most neglected novel. Set in 14th-century Italy, it represents a merging of historical romance and the literature of sentiment. Incorporating intriguing feminist elements, this absorbing novel shows Shelley as a complex and intellectually astute thinker.

“This is a superb edition of Mary Shelley’s historical romance Valperga. Professor Rajan provides an extremely illuminating introduction to the novel, one that is finely informed by her extensive knowledge of women’s literary history, Italian history, British Romanticism, and critical theory. She sensitively analyses the ways in which Shelly’s complex bio-textual relationships to both her husband and her father play out in the novel. She also provides extensive and invaluable annotations, chronologies, appendices of relevant writings by Godwin, Sismondi, Machiavelli, and the earliest reviews of the novel.” — Anne K. Mellor, UCLA
