British Women’s Writing from Brontë to Bloomsbury, Volume 3
This five-volume series, British Women’s Writing From Brontë to Bloomsbury, 1840–1940, historically contextualizes and traces developments in women’s fiction from 1840 to 1940.

Fashioning the Self: Identity and Style in British Culture
'Fashioning the Self: Identity and Style in British Culture' offers an eclectic approach to contemporary fashion studies. Taking a broad definition of British culture, this collection of essays explores the significance of style to issues such as colonialism, race, gender and class, embracing topics as diverse as eighteenth-century portraiture, literary dress culture and Edwardian working-class glamour.

Using an intentionally eclectic range of subjects from an interdisciplinary perspective, this collection builds on the work of theorists such as Aileen Ribeiro, Vika Martina Plock, Cheryl Buckley and Hilary Fawcett, to examine the social significance of personal style, while also highlighting the diversity of British culture itself.
