"Sentimental Industry: Women's Work and Nineteenth-Century American Fictions of Labor" examines the literary representation of women wage earners in nineteenth-century America, a genre of fiction I call the sentimental novel of labor. By discussing these narratives, I show that wage labor for women and the principles of the domestic sphere were not in conflict but were initially imagined as compatible and mutually enabling. These texts articulate what I call a salutary view of wage labor, in which work in the economic sphere provides the foundation for an identity that is simultaneously inviolable and extensive, and therefore secure from threats that would be posed by restricting women's activity to the domestic sphere. By investigating the literature of sentimental industry, this study attempts to reconfigure critical discussion about sentimentalism during the period, showing that from its inception proponents of sentimentalism contemplated the promise as well as the threat of the marketplace.

Chapter One describes the intellectual tradition that imagines labor as the primary means of both self-constitution and self-expression, a tradition that includes, most notably, John Locke and Adam Smith. It also outlines the contemporary critical landscape associated with the domestic sentimental tradition. Chapter Two provides a reading of Sarah Savage's The Factory Girl , and places this neglected novel as part of a broad cultural response to the arrival of the factory. In this response, proponents of the salutary view of wage labor welcome the factory as a new site for the practice of virtue. Chapter Three examines two important slave narratives, demonstrating how, for these women, wage labor becomes the only secure means of establishing their freedom. Chapter Four places Louisa May Alcott's Work within the tradition of sentimental industry and describes postbellum expressions of the salutary view of labor. Finally, Chapter Five suggests how the ideas expressed in the sentimental novel of labor persist in the novels of Edward Bellamy and the progressive and utopian imagination.
