Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 2005.

Elizabeth Spencer, who studied at Vanderbilt under the direction of Donald Davidson and retained strong ties to the Nashville Fugitive-Agrarians, has published critically acclaimed fiction for over forty years. Yet scholars have overlooked her body of work as a whole, a move that speaks to the ways she is an uneasy fit within both the rigid paradigms of the Southern Renaissance---until recently recognized as a largely masculinist project---and the traditional boundaries of feminist fiction. In my project, I focus on Spencer's treatment of "home," a notion that is central to the construction of southern womanhood. Traditionally, southern scholars have viewed home as a site of reaffirmation of cultural identity, while feminist scholars working with southern texts often identify home as a contested space, one that operates as a site of subversion of male power. Spencer's work resists easy categorization, however, embracing a number of shifting and often contradictory notions of home that challenge traditional assumptions of space and place. In this project, I trace Spencer's evolving notion of home from her early novels, which embrace traditional Renaissance conventions, to her later work, which reenvisions "home" within a global cartography and repositions southern women's experience within a transnational context.
