Speaking Volumes: Women, Reading, and Speech in the Age of Austen
Patricia Michaelson
An interdisciplinary study of women and language in England in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, this book uses language texts, schoolbooks, diaries, letters, conduct books, and works of literature to show how 18th-century English women used "woman's language" while insisting that gender was not the most salient feature of their identities.
