Reviews
Gretchen Murphy provides a generative starting point for tracing the intersectional relationships among religion, gender, politics, religion, and literature in future scholarship. * Keri Holt, American Literary History * In this fresh approach to the field, Murphy's study moves beyond the well-established what and why of women's literary engagement with the political and religious arenas to connect the details of when, where, and how. * Jenifer B. Elmore, Palm Beach Atlantic University, Early American Literature *
"New England Women Writers, Secularity, and the Federalist Politics of Church and State is a genuinely significant contribution to the study of women writers, early debates over religion and secularity, and the enduring nature of a supposedly dead political tradition. Moreover, it spotlights several underappreciated texts worthy of further study and highlights an era of literary history that is often squeezed into obscurity between the turbulent 1790s and the ""American Renaissance."" Murphy should thus be heartily applauded for digging deep into what is often mischaracterized as a shallow period of literary history. * Scott Slawinski, Western Michigan University, Tulsa Studies in Women's Literature * Gretchen Murphy provides a generative starting point for tracing the intersectional relationships among religion, gender, politics, religion, and literature in future scholarship. * Keri Holt, American Literary History * In this fresh approach to the field, Murphy's study moves beyond the well-established what and why of women's literary engagement with the political and religious arenas to connect the details of when, where, and how. * Jenifer B.
