Prolific Ground
Landscape and British Women's Writing, 1690–1790
Bucknell University Press
Prolific Ground investigates landownership as a crucial factor in the emergence of British women’s independence during the long eighteenth century. Staking a claim to the nation’s investment in land, women writers acquired a socio-political authority that otherwise eluded them. The landscapes that emerge in their writing testify to the socio-political power of land in this era.

In doing so, they illuminate the complexity of female friendships and honor as well as the robust creativity and intellectual work contributed by women to culture in the long eighteenth century.
