The work frames key scenes, character formations, and shifting power dynamics through major texts, including A Pair of Blue Eyes, Far from the Madding Crowd, The Return of the Native, Tess of the d’Urbervilles, and Jude the Obscure. It also situates arguments with supporting apparatus such as an introduction, conclusion, appendix on internal dating, notes, bibliography, and an index.","WOMEN AND SEXUALITY IN THE NOVELS OF THOMAS HARDY  \nWOMEN AND SEXUALITY IN THE NOVELS OF THOMAS HARDY  \nRosemarie Morgan  \nROUTLEDGE London and New York  \nto Adam, Ruthie, Mimi and Alice, with love  \nFirst published in 1988 by Routledge 11 New Fetter Lane, London EC4P 4EE  \nThis edition published in the Taylor & Francis e-Library, 2006.  \n“To purchase your own copy of this or any of Taylor & Francis or Routledge’s collection of thousands of eBooks please go to [http://www.ebookstore.tandf.co.uk/](http://www.ebookstore.tandf.co.uk/).”  \nPublished in the USA by Routledge in association with Routledge, Chapman and Hall, Inc. 29  \nWest 35th Street, New York, NY 10001  \n© Rosemarie Morgan 1988  \nNo part of this book may be reproduced in any form without permission from the publisher except for the quotation of brief passages in criticism  \nLibrary of Congress Cataloging in Publication Data Morgan, Rosemarie.  \nWomen and sexuality in the novels of Thomas Hardy.

Nonetheless, I must express my deep gratitude first and foremost to those members of St Andrews University who, in my thesis-writing days, helped to bring the project into being. My warmest thanks go to my doctoral supervisor, Phillip Mallett, who guided, invigorated, inspired and consoled me, put up with my stubborness and contrariness, and became my valued friend. I owe him a debt of special importance which can never be repaid. I would also like to express my deepest thanks to Professor Peter Bayley, whose unfailing support and encouragement sustained me through many hard times, and to Dr Neil Rhodes, whose scholarly criticisms of my text were as enlightening as the dinner conversations I enjoyed in his home. And of all the generous individuals who shared their lives with me at St Andrews, I owe a special debt of affection to Peter Coxon, whose infectious enthusiasm for all things Hardyan enlivened my days immeasurably. Among those who have helped with the final stages of the book, I would like to thank Professor J.Hillis Miller for his patient readings of my text, Tolin Duda for her special skills in structural organisation, Rona Davies for her sensitive and insightful comments on the final draft, and Luis Ortiz who went well out of his way to guide me through the hazards of computer typesetting. Finally, my deepest appreciation goes to my editor, Andrew Wheatcroft, whose availability above and beyond the call of duty, whose sense of organisation when I had none, and whose infinite care in working with me on final revisions completed the incomplete and brought the book through.  \nABBREVIATIONS  \nThroughout this study I have used the fourteen-volume New Wessex edition of Hardy’s novels, published by Macmillan in 1974–6.
