Description of The Wasting Heroine in German Fiction by Women 1770-1914
In this broad-ranging study, Richards examines the representation of women's illness in German fiction by women 1770-1914. In the context of medical history, she focuses particularly on female self-starvation and wasting diseases, illustrating how the 'wasting heroine' both reinforced and challenged popular notions of female fragility.
