The Letters of Charlotte Brontë: 1848-1851
Author : Charlotte Brontë
Publisher : Clarendon Press
Page : 866 pages
File Size : 29,77 MB
Release : 1995
Category : Authors, English
ISBN : 9780198185987
Book Description
In this volume we share Charlotte Bronte's experience for four crucial years. The success of Jane Eyre and the strange power of Wuthering Heights made the 'brothers Bell' the 'universal theme of conversation'; but privately the family endured the deaths of Branwell Bronte in September andEmily in December 1848, followed by Anne's in May 1849. Haunted by the fear that she also would succumb, Charlotte found salvation in writing Shirley, published in October 1849, and comfort in her friendship and correspondence with Ellen Nussey, with her publishers-especially George Smith-with MrsGaskell, and (for a time) Harriet Martineau. She may also have received a proposal of marriage from Smith, Edler's manager, James Taylor.

None of the letters in this volume has appeared in the original edition of the Letters, and most have never previously been published at all.

Routledge Revivals: The Letters and Private Papers of William Makepeace Thackeray, Volume I (1994)
Author : Edgar F. Harden
Publisher : Routledge
Page : 942 pages
File Size : 14,10 MB
Release : 2017-03-16
Category : History
ISBN : 1315445425
Book Description
First published in 1994, these two volumes are intended as a supplement to the four-volume edition edited by Gordon N. Ray in 1945-46. In writing to his broad range of correspondents, Thackeray produced a varied body of letters that will help readers to better understand his nineteenth-century society as well as his professional and private life — especially his relationships with women. These volumes contain 1713 letters: 1464 to and from Thackeray that were not included in the earlier volumes, and 249 with texts that have been edited from newly available manuscripts, and that thereby replace texts that were printed in Ray from incomplete sources.

File Size : 36,37 MB
Release : 2001-08-30
Category : Literary Criticism
ISBN : 9780521659574
Book Description
These new essays by leading scholars explore nineteenth-century women's writing across a spectrum of genres. The book's focus is on women's role in and access to literary culture in the broadest sense, as consumers and interpreters as well as practitioners of that culture. Individual chapters consider women as journalists, editors, translators, scholars, actresses, playwrights, autobiographers, biographers, writers for children and religious writers as well as novelists and poets. A unique chronology offers a woman-centered perspective on literary and historical events and there is a guide to further reading.
