Women Writing Art History in the Nineteenth Century: Looking Like a Woman by Hilary Fraser
English | 4 Sept. 2014 | ISBN: 1107075750 | 254 Pages | PDF | 4 MB

This book sets out to correct received accounts of the emergence of art history as a masculine field. It investigates the importance of female writers from Anna Jameson, Elizabeth Eastlake and George Eliot to Alice Meynell, Vernon Lee and Michael Field in developing a discourse of art notable for its complexity and cultural power, its increasing professionalism and reach, and its integration with other discourses of modernity.
