Sandra M. Gilbert made substantial contributions to feminist literary criticism, co-authoring landmark works like 'The Madwoman in the Attic,' transforming the study of 19th-century women's literature.
Her work, particularly with collaborator Susan Gubar, redefined the representation of women in literature, creating crucial dialogues around feminist perspectives in both historical and contemporary contexts.
A poet, critic, and educator, Gilbert's legacy is marked not only by her influential publications but also by the mentorship and encouragement she provided to future generations of women writers.
Gilbert's academic journey, rooted in her experiences from Cornell to her role at California State, laid the foundation for her pioneering analysis of women's writing through decades.
