Rebecca Harding Davis
editThanks for addressing my concerns. I have completed a more complete review of the article at Talk:Rebecca Harding Davis/GA1 with some specific questions about the work. You can edit the article directly in response to the questions or provide me with feedback on the Talk:Rebecca Harding Davis/GA1. maclean (talk) 04:16, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
GA status
editYou all have gotten some great feedback from the GA reviewer - - and it looks to me like you're very, very close to GA status. Congratulations! Now . . the final push. The two questions the reviewer raises that I might be able to help with: Life in the Iron Mills' status as pioneering document of realism; and, LIM's status within Davis's ouevre. For the first, you might look at the header notes for any Norton or Heath anthology of Am. Lit - - I have the Heath in my office, so remind me on Tuesday. Also, you might add this to your list of refs in re the claim about LIM in Davis's oeuvre: "Most readers agree that Life in the Iron Mills is Davis's best work." From Cecelia Techi, "Introduction: Cultural and Historical Background," Rebecca Harding Davis: Life in the Iron Mills, ed. Cecelia Tichi, NY: Bedfort St Martin's (1998). For certification of LiM's "pioneering" status: you might refer to RHD society page, the Heath Anthology page on Davis, the Legacy page on Davis, and Jean Pfaelzer's article in Legacy - - Legacy "LEGACY Profile: Rebecca Harding Davis, 1831-1910." Jean Pfaelzer. 7.2 (1990): 39-45. I think these two things - - LiM's "pioneering" status and its value w/i Davis's oeuvre - - are pretty much accepted as common sense within American lit. scholarship today. So, since it's pretty non-controversial - - it's going to be hard to find an article or writer explicitly arguing for or against these judgements. I think the best thing to do is to represent the ubiquitous status of these judgements, e.g. how they reflect the common sense of the discipline.
The other items/recommendations look fairly straightforward. Correct them and I think you'll clinch the GA status prize.
Congrats on your hard work! A job well-done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Profhanley (talk • contribs) 15:52, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
