  • Sayers Roberts
    A HAUNTING STORY – DOROTHY SAYERS’S GAUDY NIGHT Dorothy Sayers, poet, novelist, playwright, essayist and translator, was Born in 1893 in Oxford. In 1912 she won a scholarship to Somerville to read medieval French. She took a First Class degree but had to wait until 1920 to Be awarded it, when women were at last admitted to degrees. Her first novel, Whose Body? published in 1923, established her protagonist Lord Peter Wimsey, while a sequel, Strong Poison, 1930, introduced his future companion Harriet Vane. Sayers’s 1935 novel Gaudy Night, featuring both Wimsey and Vane, is set in an Oxford women’s college closely based on Somerville, though transplanted to St Cross Road and ‘the Balliol cricket ground’, and re-named Shrewsbury, and it’s because of these evocations of a Somerville of the past that I’m talking aBout it today, when we’ve gathered to talk (partly at least) about our own pasts in this college. Re-reading Gaudy Night, we notice how much Somerville changed Between 1935 and 1967, when we came up, and how much it has changed again since. Sayers’s novels have traditionally been fitted into the genre she herself called detective stories. Sometimes such works would Be called mystery stories. Gaudy Night, though it comes suitaBly freighted with mystery and with crime, can also fruitfully be read, I’m going to suggest, as a ghost story. Even though many of you must know the novel well, I’m going to invite you to take another look at it. Gaudy Night is littered with references to ghosts.

    WOMEN WRITING WOMEN : GENDER AND REPRESENTATION IN BRITISH 'GOLDEN AGE' CRIME FICTION Megan Hoffman A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of PhD at the University of St Andrews 2012 Full metadata for this item is available in St Andrews Research Repository at: http://research-repository.st-andrews.ac.uk/ Please use this identifier to cite or link to this item: http://hdl.handle.net/10023/11910 This item is protected by original copyright Women Writing Women: Gender and Representation in British ‘Golden Age’ Crime Fiction Megan Hoffman This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of PhD at the University of St Andrews 4 July 2012 ii ABSTRACT In this thesis, I examine representations of women and gender in British ‘Golden Age’ crime fiction by writers including Margery Allingham, Christianna Brand, Agatha Christie, Ngaio Marsh, Dorothy L. Sayers, Josephine Tey and Patricia Wentworth. I argue that portrayals of women in these narratives are ambivalent, both advocating a modern, active model of femininity, while also displaying with their resolutions an emphasis on domesticity and on maintaining a heteronormative order, and that this ambivalence provides a means to deal with anxieties about women’s place in society. This thesis is divided thematically, beginning with a chapter on historical context which provides an overview of the period’s key social tensions. Chapter II explores depictions of women who do not conform to the heteronormative order, such as spinsters, lesbians and ‘fallen’ women. Chapter III looks at the ways in which the courtships and marriages of detective couples attempt to negotiate the ideal of companionate marriage and the pressures of a ‘cult of domesticity’.

Possible reasons for this are the contrast between the orthodox Catholic Tolkien’s view of male sexuality as inherently sinful, requiring “great mortification”, and Sayers’s frankly hedonistic approach.
