Abstract

The idea of the division of the sexes in the public and private spheres has been critical for our understanding of modern culture, but this division is not as clear cut as the terms imply. This paper argues that the mid-century rise of the female initiated by Samuel Richardsons fictional heroines and his Bluestocking friends co-opts the public values upheld by a more ancient civic humanism by sublating the citzens virt into the domestic womans Virtue. The virtuous woman, closeted off from the market place of political economythe new private spherewas to subsume values that were once reserved for the male, martial landowner, incorruptible because disinterested in private matters. The female and the domestic becomes the site of a virtue formerly occupied by the male and the public in a curious reversal occasioned by the loss of a more traditional sense of character.
