A perennial student favorite, her short story “Roman Fever” (1934) provokes thought on a variety of American attitudes, in particular the role of women in traditional American marriages—how it has both changed and remained somewhat the same over time. The later works shed light on the consistency of Wharton’s insistence on the complexity of women and her frustration with the nation’s gendered assumptions. With her novels as well as her short fiction, Wharton instantiates her critique of the custom of the country. Nearly a century after its publication, readers consistently react to the moment one student of mine dubbed the “mic drop” at the end of “Roman Fever.” The brevity of the story gives room for students to read primary and secondary sources, and each class finds new complexities in a seemingly simple work of short fiction.","PeriodicalId":40904,"journal":{"name":"Edith Wharton Review","volume":"12 1","pages":"64 - 74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81113876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, precarity is used to convey risk, decay, destruction, and instability. Her invention thus emphasizes not only the continued significance of architecture to Wharton; it underscores her awareness of and engagement with the risks and destruction possible in the space of the past. Accordingly, this article seeks to interpret Hudson as a ghost story, one that centers on her haunted Hudson River Bracketed house, the Willows. While most critics envisage the Willows as a venerable monument of the past, this article analyzes the Willows as operating within a Gothic framework borrowed from the likes of Poe. As the author suggests through a history of Wharton’s construction of the architectural title, its more sinister meanings, and its connection with the past—paired with image analyses and close readings—Wharton ultimately uses the Gothic trope of the haunted house as a way of more personally reflecting on her own position as an aging writer in her post–Age of Innocence career.","PeriodicalId":40904,"journal":{"name":"Edith Wharton Review","volume":"8 1","pages":"1 - 20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84697629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To do so, it also analyzes the trope in a range of those other novels, including William J. Locke’s 1905 The Morals of Marcus Ordeyne (so popular that it became a play and then a motion picture), Jean Webster’s 1912 Daddy Long-Legs, and Ethel M. Kelley’s 1917 Turn About Eleanor. Each of these other novels generally obscures or indeed celebrates the uneven power dynamics and age relationships of such couplings, sometimes to quite remarkable degrees, and in ways that foreground the “romantic” elements of the romance fiction genre. In Summer, Wharton, by partially but not entirely revising them, instead recasts the conventions of a guardian-ward romance to force the logical and emotional contradictions of the hierarchies of power coercively inherent in the limited female autonomy of such wards to the surface.","PeriodicalId":40904,"journal":{"name":"Edith Wharton Review","volume":"1 1","pages":"21 - 49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74814062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through the lens of the seventeenth-century French novel, which Wharton characterized as inaugurating the debut of \"modern fiction\" in The Writing of Fiction, readers can see how Wharton condemns, in The House of Mirth, the stated motivations of its characters as fundamentally unreliable and their attempts at self-knowledge as futile. In this way, both novels highlight epistemological failures—whether about love, friendship, or status—when characters falter just on the brink of attaining their desires. The last part of this study examines Rosedale's love for Lily, his active care for her, and his jealousy, which have not received adequate scholarly attention, as well as proposes a new reading of Lily's rejection of Rosedale's last marriage proposal.","PeriodicalId":40904,"journal":{"name":"Edith Wharton Review","volume":"3 1","pages":"132 - 150"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89362941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It may be read, among other things, as a revealing, early example of Wharton's uses of secrets and silences to portray women's lives. Withholding would become a central feature of her writing, and the topic of women, one of her enduring artistic interests. This article examines Sanctuary's fictional and textual secrets, as well as the roles of silences with reference to the numerous instances of vigil-keeping in the novella. It finds Wharton exploring acts of withholding by a woman and imbuing them with a significant power to transform others, so subverting the historical silences and silencing of women.","PeriodicalId":40904,"journal":{"name":"Edith Wharton Review","volume":"23 1","pages":"151 - 167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84810410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
