As the first detailed study of the Southern Rhodesian romantic. novels of Cynthia Stockley (Lilian Julia Webb) and Gertrude Page (Gertrude Dobbin), this dissertation presents biographical information about the two writers as well as an analysis of the historical reception and discursive context of the novels - focusing primarily on the novels as rewritings of the gendered discourses of the British "New Imperialism" and of a nascent Rhodesian nationalism. Their novels reveal ambivalences about and conflicts between feminism and maternalism, heroic and bourgeois versions of the romance genre, and bourgeois imperialism and the representation of feminine sexuality. 2014-11-11T20:09:42Z 2014-11-11T20:09:42Z 1997 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9568 eng application/pdf Department of English Language and Literature Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
