在19世纪50年代中后期,弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔(Florence Nightingale)成为克里米亚战争后的民族女英雄,是女性集体传记中最受欢迎的人物。然而,她的一生可以看作是对符合维多利亚时代女性理想的坚决反抗。她意识到自己的人气与现实之间的鸿沟:公众好!它不知道我在克里米亚到底在做什么。良好的公共!它不知道我想做什么,也不知道我回家后做了什么。(来自1857年的私人笔记;南丁格尔,Ever Yours 177-78)这句话暗示了她对错误描述的抵制,这表明她内心在寻找表达她的愿景的手段。
Florence Nightingale, who became a national heroine after the Crimean War, was the most popular subject in hagiographical collective biographies of women during the mid- and late-1850s. However, her life can be regarded as a resolute resistance to conformity with the ideal of womanhood in the Victorian era. She recognised the chasm between her popularity and reality: Good public! It knew nothing of what I was really doing in the Crimea. Good public! It has known nothing of what I wanted to do & have done since I came home. (Private note from 1857; Nightingale, Ever Yours 177–78) This statement implies the resistance to the misrepresentation of her, which is indicative of her inner struggle to search for a means to express her vision.
