![]() | Fanny Kemble: A Performed Life "Fanny Kemble played a highly significant cultural role on both sides of the Atlantic. As David so convincingly shows, the life of this actress-turned-writer-turned-polemicist not only offers a fascinating subject in its own right but also intersects with a host of nineteenth-century figures who still interest us today."--U. C. Knoepflmacher Deirdre David is Professor Emerita of English at Temple University. She is the author of several books, including Rule Britannia: Women, Empire, and Victorian Writing, and the editor of The Cambridge Companion to the Victorian Novel. |
