ISBN10: 0773526188, ISBN13: 9780773526181, [publisher: McGill-Queen's University Press, Montreal, QC] Hardcover Clean, tight, unmarked; very light wear to upper edge of dust jacket; otherwise absolute minimal wear; The Republic of Letters emerged in the 17th century as a self-proclaimed community of scholars and literary figures that transcended national boundaries. In this book Dalton looks at the role of women in this community by examining the correspondence of two French and two Venetian salon women. All four women lived through the events that transformed Western culture, including the Enlightenment, the French Revolution, and the Napoleonic Wars. As women they had a particular perspective, expressed first-hand through their letters. Dalton shows how the women grappled with differences of ideology, social status, and community, often through networks that mixed personal and professional relations. Dalton shows how a variety of conflicts were expressed in everyday life and sheds new light on Venice as an important 18th century cultural centre.
