Biography

Goodden is a fellow of St Hilda's College, Oxford University, whose principal area of research and study is 18th and 19th century French culture, in particular literature and painting.[1] Gooden has authored several biographical books, including on subjects such as Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun, Germaine de Staël, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau.[2][3][4]

In 2005 she published a biography of the Swiss neoclassical painter Angelica Kaufman. The book, Miss Angel: The Art and World of Angelica Kauffman, was generally well received by critics. John McEwan of the Literary Review claimed it as "an amusing and solid biography". Kirkus concluded their review saying that "Goodden's well-measured life of the artist may help bring Kauffman's oeuvre back to light", however Tom Williams for The Observer did note that the book made it "impossible to engage with the woman who was Angelica Kauffman".[5][6][7][8]

Goodden also publishes reviews for the journal of French Studies and the London Review of Books.[9][10] As a sufferer of multiple sclerosis, Gooden has developed innovative solutions to maintain access and accommodate her specialised needs.[11][12]
