Acknowledgments
This book would not have been possible without the generous support of students, friends, and colleagues. Since this manuscript has emerged out of my teaching experiences, I must begin by thanking my students, particularly those in my seminars on American women's writing at Swarthmore College and the graduate students who took my classes at Kent State University. I heartily thank Barton Levi St. Armand for introducing me to the fiction of Mary Wilkins Freeman and for his enthusiastic praise of my early work. Thanks also to Ellen Rooney, whose astute commentary has sharpened my thinking. I also owe an enormous debt to the English department faculty and staff at Kent State University, who have supported my research in numerous ways, not the least of which include my voracious xeroxing requests; in this regard I would especially like to thank Ruby Riley and Liz Siciliano. I am also indebted to the helpful staff of Kent State University's library, especially those working in circulation, who expedited my numerous requests. This book would certainly not have been finished without the Division of Research and Graduate Studies at Kent State University, which granted me a research leave in the spring of 1996 and additional financial support to hire editorial assistance, pay permission fees, and create an index. In particular, I owe the Kent State University Research Council an enormous debt of gratitude for their generous support of this work.
