Description

Employing gender as a unifying critical focus, Caroline Jackson-Houlston draws on the full range of Walter Scotts novels to propose new links between Scott and Romantic-era authors such as Sophia Lee, Jane Porter, Jane Austen, Sydney Owenson, Elizabeth Hands, Thomas Love Peacock, and Robert Bage. In Scott, Jackson-Houlston suggests, sex and violence are united in a central feature of the genre of romance, the trope of raptus-the actual or threatened kidnapping of a woman and her subjection to physical or psychic violence.
