▼a "Women's Work: Domesticity, Interiority, and Social Science in American Literature, 1890-1910" demonstrates the relationship between early U.S. modernist literary production and emergent social scientific discourses that reconfigured domesticity in its relation to women's mental and bodily lives. To date, literary discussions of domesticity in this period-the proto-modernist era of realism and naturalism-have been framed in terms of the continued cultural dominance of sentimentalism as an outdated but persistent ideology and aesthetic mode, and are thus presented in contrast to more apparently "modern" representations of women leaving the home for participation in the public sphere of wage labor. "Women's Work," however, uncovers a focused engagement, by both social scientists and literary and cultural producers, with domesticity and the figure of the domestic woman as privileged objects of study for attempting to understand interior consciousness and the modern world. At the turn of the century, a proliferation of different kinds of writing took domesticity up as an object for inquiry, which, in the process, thoroughly denaturalized its taken-for-granted meanings.In centering domesticity as the site for the theorization of the mind in relation to labor, "Women's Work" revises and extends genealogies of modernism and sentimentalism. In particular, I argue that fiction at the turn of the century centering on domesticity engaged in a protomodernist project of aesthetic and cultural experimentation linked to the era's social scientific milieu-specifically, the evolutionary theory that underwrote the emerging fields of sociology, anthropology, and particularly psychology. The writers that comprise this study-Mary Wilkins Freeman, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Pauline Elizabeth Hopkins, Sigmund Freud, and Gertrude Stein-however, did not merely replace sentimental domesticity, or confine its values to the past, but took it up as an object for inquiry, and with it the nascent-psychological interiority of the domestic woman. Within this social scientific landscape, the psychological zone of women's mental and interior life, as it is developed and tied to the home, its labors, and its ideologies, becomes a central zone in fiction for reconfiguring modern psychological subjectivity. |
