520 1  "Anna Krugovoy Silver examines the ways nineteenth-century
       British writers used physical states of the female body - 
       hunger, appetite, fat, and slenderness - in the creation 
       of female characters. Silver argues that anorexia nervosa,
       first diagnosed in 1873, serves as a paradigm for the 
       cultural ideal of middle-class womanhood in Victorian 
       Britain. In addition, Silver relates these literary 
       expressions to the representation of women's bodies in the
       conduct books, beauty manuals, and other non-fiction prose
       of the period, contending that women "performed" their 
       gender and class alliances through the slender body. 
       Silver discusses a wide range of writers including 
       Charlotte Bronte, Christina Rossetti, Charles Dickens, 
       Bram Stoker, and Lewis Carroll to show that mainstream 
       models of middle-class Victorian womanhood share important
       qualities with the beliefs or behaviors of the anorexic 
       girl or woman."--Jacket.
