    Abstract: Cover; Half-title; Series-title; Title; Copyright; Dedication; Contents; Acknowledgments; Introduction; 1 Defining English gender; 2 The gender shift in histories of English; 3 A history of gender, people, and pronouns: the story of generic he; 4 Third-person pronouns in the gender shift: why is that ship a she?; 5 Gender and asymmetrical word histories: when boys could be girls; 6 Implications for nonsexist language reform; Appendix 1: Background on early English personal pronouns; Appendix 2: Helsinki Corpus texts and methodology; References; Index
    Abstract: How did grammatical gender in English get replaced by a system dependent on natural gender? How is this related to 'irregular agreement' (she for ships) and 'sexist' language use (generic he) in Modern English? This study, based on extensive corpus data, offers an important historical perspective on these controversial questions

    Abstract: Introduction -- "Immaterial pleasure houses": the initial aesthetic dilemma -- "A more dream-heavy hour": medievalist and progressive beginnings -- "Pedantry and hysteria": contemporary political problems -- "A certain discipline": radical conservative solutions -- "A particularly lively wheel": cyclic views emerge -- "Our own image": the example of Asian and non-Western cultures -- In "the grip of the ... vortex": the proof of post-impressionist art -- The "cycle dance": cyclic history arrives -- "The nightmare" and beyond: the First World War and mature cyclic theories
    Abstract: Louise Williams explores the cyclical nature of historical memory in the work of five writers: Yeats, Pound, Hulme, Ford and Lawrence. Modernists, Williams argues, changed their attitude to history as a result of important conflicts within the period. This study will be essential reading for anyone interested in modernist writing; 1900 - 1999
