First published in 1832, Shakespeare’s Heroines is a unique hybrid of Shakespeare criticism, women’s rights activism, and conduct literature. Jameson’s collection of readings of female characters includes praise for unexpected role models as varied as Portia, Cleopatra, and Lady Macbeth; her interpretations of these and other characters portray intellect, passion, political ambition, and eroticism as acceptable aspects of women’s behaviour. This inventive work of literary criticism addresses the problems of women’s education and participation in public life while also providing insightful, original, and entertaining readings of Shakespeare’s women. This Broadview Edition includes a critical introduction that places Shakespeare’s Heroines in the context of Jameson’s literary career and political life. Appendices include personal correspondence and other literary and political writings by Jameson, examples of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Shakespeare criticism, and selections from Victorian conduct books.

Originally published in 1832 as Characteristics of Women: Moral, Poetical, and Historical, Anna Jameson's groundbreaking exploration of the female character has had a role in both literary and academic circles ever since. By the turn of the nineteenth century it had been retitled Shakespeare's Heroines, and has been reissued periodically over the years. This particular edition has retained all the text of the original, including Jameson's provocative introduction. Complemented by over 70 charming period pen-and-ink wash illustrations by artist W. (Walter) Paget, this volume is further distinguished by a new foreword by modern-day Victorian scholar Jessica Slights. Jameson's respect for Shakespeare's work is clear. As she says in Shakespeare's Heroines, "[his characters] combine history and real life; they are complete individuals, whose hearts and souls are laid open before us: all may behold, and all judge for themselves." Jameson's innovation was to use female characters from William Shakespeare's writing to develop her theories. At the time she was writing male critics wrote little if anything about female characters in theatrical productions. Jameson recognized that lapse, and sought to correct it by discussing what being a woman really means -- as compared to "feminine" and "masculine" stereotypes and period expectations -- through this profoundly creative approach.
