Barbara Glore
Lecturer

While my teaching experience has been focused on Rhetoric and Composition, my scholarly research has also included British women writers of the long eighteenth century (1660-1800).  

 

In this regard, my doctoral work explores the connections between gender relations and social politics of late Stuart and early Hanoverian England in the works of Anglo-Irish writer Mary Davys (1674-1732).   Entitled Gender Performance in the Works of Mary Davys , my dissertation traces the development of female protagonists throughout the author's texts and reveals her impatience with gendered power and immoral behavior as they pertain to women's containment (Davys's female constructions arc from those who are overly feminized in her early works to those who enact masculine modes of behavior and those who foreground themselves in the texts of her later works).   I have presented several papers at various conferences regarding Davys's social critiques.   

 

My interest in these issues has been a direct result of research for my Master of Arts Degree in which I explore contemporary social practices and gender bias in Frances Burney's novel Evelina (1778).
