Abstract:In this essay I survey editions of Mary Robinson’s Memoirs through the nineteenth century, tracking their commercial appeal alongside key developments in the book trades. In so doing, I investigate the bibliographical, book-historical phenomena that accomplished what Clifford Siskin calls “The Great Forgetting” of women writers after the Romantic period. Reprintings of Robinson’s Memoirs encouraged Robinson’s literary obscurity by staging her personal notoriety. Edmund Blunden’s 1930 edition of the Memoirs proves an exception to this rule. To the degree that its bibliographic codes return to those of the first printed edition, Blunden restores materially Robinson’s place within Romantic print culture.
期刊介绍:
Studies in Romanticism was founded in 1961 by David Bonnell Green at a time when it was still possible to wonder whether "romanticism" was a term worth theorizing (as Morse Peckham deliberated in the first essay of the first number). It seemed that it was, and, ever since, SiR (as it is known to abbreviation) has flourished under a fine succession of editors: Edwin Silverman, W. H. Stevenson, Charles Stone III, Michael Cooke, Morton Palet, and (continuously since 1978) David Wagenknecht. There are other fine journals in which scholars of romanticism feel it necessary to appear - and over the years there are a few important scholars of the period who have not been represented there by important work.
