dc.description.abstractThe body appears in uncanny manifestations in noncanonical early women’s novels such as Penelope Aubin, Aphra Behn, and Eliza Haywood. These representations of the individual differ from the modern representations of the human as disembodied, which we see, in canonical novels, for example, of Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, and Samuel Richardson -the fathers of the English novel according to Ian Watt. In early women’s writing, on the other hand, the individual is presented with its bodily existence in different ways: In Aubin, the representations of physical violence, cannibalism, and eating raw meat disrupts identity as consciousness, in Eliza Haywood, the body is presented as the source of love and as the place where love inseparable from sexual desire becomes visible, and in Aphra Behn, both physical violence and sexual desire portray embodied subjects. These bodies that occupy central places will disappear in writings that will be regarded as respectable and edifying in eighteenth century and thus, these canonical novels will be situated within the duality of the body and mind relegating the body to the field of medical sciences in modern taxonomy and creating a subjectivity that is mediated as mind and consciousness for the novel.en_US
