Embraced by feminist scholars for her radical experimentation with queer poetic voice and her witty journalistic pieces on female independence, she remains controversial for her representations of London Jewry that draw unmistakably on contemporary antisemitic discourse.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAmy Levy: Critical Essays\u003c\/i\u003e brings together scholars working in the fields of Victorian cultural history, women's poetry and fiction, and the history of Anglo-Jewry. The essays trace the social, intellectual, and political contexts of Levy's writing and its contemporary reception. Working from close analyses of Levy's texts, the collection aims to rethink her engagement with Jewish identity, to consider her literary and political identifications, to assess her representations of modern consumer society and popular culture, and to place her life and work within late-Victorian cultural debate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students offering both a comprehensive literature review of scholarship-to-date and a range of new critical perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Susan David Bernstein, University of Wisconsin-Madison\u003cbr\u003e Gail Cunningham, Kingston University\u003cbr\u003e Elizabeth F.
