Yesterday's
Woman
Domestic Realism in the English Novel
VINETA COLBY
Minor novelists in early nineteenth-century England
produced a staggering number of volumes that
shaped styles, formed attitudes, and gave to the
novel a new status and respectability. Vineta Colby
examines the works of such minor novelists as Mrs.
Gore, Harriet Martineau, Maria Edgeworth, and
Charlotte Yonge, arguing that they prepared the
way for the novels of the great Victorian era.

Wallace
Stevens
Imagination and Faith
ADALAIDE KIRBY MORRIS
The search for a substitute for religion occupies
Wallace Stevens' poetic energy from his earliest
to his latest work. Adalaide Kirby Morris finds
that this search encompasses a critique of
Christianity, often wryly humorous and
sometimes bitterly satiric. The result is a theory
of poetry that becomes a mystical theology.
