Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the relationship between the Victorian cult of domesticity and the serialization of early detective fiction, arguing that the figure of the female detective was instrumental in shaping the genre. The author examines the ways in which serialized detective fiction provided a space for women to negotiate the constraints of domestic ideology and explore new possibilities for female agency and independence. The book also considers the broader cultural and historical context of the Victorian era, examining how the rise of the detective novel reflected the anxieties and aspirations of a rapidly changing society. Through close readings of works by Wilkie Collins, Mary Elizabeth Braddon, and Arthur Conan Doyle, the author shows how the female detective figure challenged conventional gender roles and contributed to the development of detective fiction as a genre.
