Traces the use of the disembodied posthumous voice in fiction and poetry by Mary Shelley, Emily Bronte, Emily Dickinson, and Sylvia Plath. This study sounds out the ways that the trope of the posthumous voice succeeds in negotiating the difficult cultural space between the concept of woman's body and the production of canonical literature.
