== Early career ==
Light grew up in Portsmouth, UK, and read English at Churchill College, Cambridge University from 1973 to 1976, where she was awarded a BA and was a University Scholar. She worked as a school teacher, a cleaner, a researcher for the National Association for Gifted Children, and as a studio manager at the BBC, before taking an MA and D.Phil at Sussex University in 1991. She also taught for the Workers' Educational Association, at the Open University and as a lecturer in English at Brighton Polytechnic from 1984 to 1990. She published her first reviews and early fiction in the feminist magazine, ''Spare Rib'' and was for several years a member of the editorial collective of ''Feminist Review'', an academic journal of the British women’s movement. Her first academic article on romance fiction in 1984 helped open up the field of British popular culture to serious study and has been much anthologised.〔Light, Alison, 'Returning to Manderley': Romance Fiction, Female Sexuality and Class', ''Feminist Review'', 16, 1984; reprinted in ''Feminist Literary Theory'', (ed.), Mary Eagleton, (Blackwell 1986); ''Feminism and Cultural Studies'', (ed.) Morag Shiach, (OUP 1999); ''British Feminist Thought: A Reader'', (ed.), Terry Lovell, (Blackwell 1990); translated: 'Zuruck Nach Manderley', Karen Nolle-Fischer, (ed.), ''Mit Verscharftem Blick'' (Frauenoffensive, Munich 1987)〕 Her first book, ''Forever England: Literature, Femininity and Conservatism between the Wars'' is related to interwar studies and studies of ‘Englishness’. It argued that it was impossible to understand ideas about English character in the period, or the changes within literary culture, without recognizing the extent to which the female population represented the nation between the wars. Her coinage, ‘conservative modernity’, to describe British culture in the period, has been taken up by other scholars.〔Light, Alison, ''Forever England: Literature, Femininity and Conservatism between the Wars'' (Routledge 1991); Light, Alison, 'Conservative Modernity', ''New Formations'', 28, 1996〕
