References • Although the main sources for my historical material are nineteenth-century medical treatises and journals, a number of interesting studies on hysteria have appeared in recent years including, most notably, Showalter The Female Malady, Showalter Hystories, Micale, and Veith. On hysteria and Victorian literature, see both Small, and Wood. My definition of “hysterial fictions” as texts both fictional and non-fictional that engage with Victorian medical constructions of hysteria through thematic interest, form and motivation, contrasts with Mary Poovey’s use of the term “hysterical text.” With reference to Jane Eyre, Poovey (141) argues that “[b]ecause there was no permissible plot in the nineteenth century for a woman’s anger [] the body of the text symptomatically acts out what cannot make its way into the psychologically realist narrative,” namely Jane’s aggression towards other characters in the novel. [] • Showalter’s The Female Malady is a prime example, but see also Moscucci. [] • For a discussion of this idea in relation to Lady Audley’s Secret (1862), see Langland.
