Description: Objects of Liberty explores the prevalence of souvenirs in six British women's travel accounts of the French Revolution and Napoleonic era. Using a methodology informed by literary, gender, and material culture studies, it argues that women writers employed the souvenir to circulate political ideas and contribute to conversations about individual and national identity.
