Far and Momentary Glimpses: Hawthorne's Treatment of Mrs. Wakefield
Bucknell Review
(1988)
Abstract
Modern criticism of Hawthorne’s “Wakefield” concentrates on Wakefield himself, his urban surroundings, and Hawthorne as cultural analyst. Little of the spotlight is devoted to Mrs. Wakefield, who still lurks outside the pale beam of criticism-stout, retiring, and very likely misunderstood.
