  • ... that one reviewer for the book Women Philosophers in the Long Nineteenth Century was concerned by the book's lack of poetry? Source: Source: [1] - "Although the volume contains various genres, including notes and parts of epistolary novels, it does not, as Nassar and Gjesdal note, contain either poetry, dramas, or letters. As stated earlier, it is the nature of any volume that seeks to cover a period that it cannot do justice to the full variety of thinkers and ideas that fluctuated around a specific time; something is always left out. It would, however, in this case, have been rather interesting to get an insight into the very materiality of (some) women’s philosophy; material in the sense of the different formats that their ideas took. This would also have granted further insights into how philosophical ideas alter when published in letters, novels, or treatises."

  • New enough, long enough, neutral, well-cited (summary presumably sourced to the book itself), earwig only picks up quotes and titles, no close paraphrasing, QPQ done. The hook could use some improvement – I like the underlying idea, but repeating "the book" twice is clunky, and I don't know if "concerned" is supported by the source; the reviewer merely says "it would have been rather interesting" if such formats were included. – Teratix 03:14, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Teratix: Thanks for the review. Would the following hook be better?
ALT1 ... that one reviewer for Women Philosophers in the Long Nineteenth Century was let down by the book's lack of poetry?
I've removed the book and replaced concerned with let down, which better fits what Ardnal was saying in the passage. Cheers! :3 F4U (they/it) 03:25, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
