EXCEPTIONAL FEMININITIES AS HISTORICAL ROLE MODELS IN CICELY HAMILTON’S A PAGEANT OF GREAT WOMEN
Öz
This paper aims to shed light on the concept of exceptional femininities in the script and performance of Cicely Hamilton’s political play A Pageant of Great Women, which she wrote in 1909. It also argues that her play was not only an imitation of Edwardian social drama with a political message. Instead, it suggests that she exploited a large variety of sources in the construction of her female characters. The play showcases rich costumes, a large stage and a very large cast, and its first production was performed by famous Edwardian actresses who represent the exceptional qualities of femininity they promoted on the stage. However, it also reveals confusion about the ordinary and the exceptional and to what extent ordinary women could be attracted to the playwright’s arguments through her representation of exceptionality. Hamilton’s relying solely on the exceptional, hence the minority, for mass appeal, suggests an elitist strategy. It is elitist due to its exclusive idealisation of exceptionality, but her strategy has limitations in elucidating the scope and the range of exceptionality and how it could be applied to the ordinary. This paper will examine the tension between the represented and the object of representation in the construction and production of the play and will attempt to show how this tension is partly resolved through the playwright’s unique solution.
