Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
Feminist geographers are now engaging with the gender implications of landscape representation. In this paper, the multiple significances of the garden in F.H. Burnett (1911) children's story The Secret Garden are explored. Using an approach informed by feminisms and poststructuralisms the A. draws attention to intersections of late-19th and early 20th century discourses on Englishness, gender, class and nature.
