Wilkinson (English, Wilmington College) explores modern novels by women that portray the education of young female characters from the middle and upper classes. The women negotiate their own ways in the world and learn the terms of their female condition and social roles in the private sphere of domesticity, she says, and their education is achieved not by active pursuit, but by emotional suffering and passive indoctrination. Her study is a complement and counterpart to the many on the Bildungsroman genre, which portrays young men learning their masculine role in the public realm.
