Excerpt: ...--to damp down the glad fever in my veins. I could only breathe out in the open. I should have been stifled within the four walls of that house in Montague Place. Since then I have watched with breathless emotion the opalescent skies of Venice; the westering light which streams like visible prayer through the windows of St. Peter's as you stand on the Pincio; the gorgeous sunsets of Naples, with that burning bar drawn all across the horizon, stretching from Vesuvius to infinitude; but I have never seen one to match the splendour of that sunset in London, on the evening of the day when I first achieved success. For the moment I was as a god among gods. My veins Avere filled with celestial ichor, not human blood; and my mind saw what it brought--the infinity of glory because of that intensity of joy. I turned into the Park and sat down on a bench, looking at this resplendence which was to me like a message--a symbol of my own strength and future lustre. Suddenly, as distinctly as if she had been there in the body, I felt the presence of Adeline Dalrymple. It seemed to me as if she stood before me, enveloping me in her personality as in the old days. I seemed to feel her arms about me--as if she drew me gently to her bosom; and I felt again her lips on my forehead and my eyes. Then she seemed to sit down on the seat beside me, and I heard the murmur of that marvellous voice, saying softly: 'By the power of Love you have come to the possession of Fame!' The full chord of divinest harmony was now complete. All my life and being were swept away as by one great rush and flood of rapture, unfathomable, irresistible. It was as if I heard the primal harmony whence all other music flows--as if I saw the archetype of all beauty, and felt the essence...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elizabeth nee Lynn Linton (1822-1898) was a British novelist, essayist, and journalist. She arrived in London in 1845 as the protege of poet Walter Savage Landor. In the following year she produced her first novel, Azeth: The Egyptian (1846); Amymone (1848), and Realities (1851), followed. None of these had any great success, and she became a journalist, joining the staff of the Morning Chronicle, and All the Year Round. In 1858, she married W. J. Linton, an eminent wood-engraver, who was also a poet of some note, a writer upon his craft, and a Chartist agitator. In 1867 they separated in a friendly way, the husband going to America, and the wife returning to writing novels, in which she finally attained wide popularity. Her most successful works were The True History of Joshua Davidson (1872) and Patricia Kemball (1874). The Autobiography of Christopher Kirkland (1885) was her fictionalised autobiography using a male pseudonym. She was also a severe critic of "The New Woman." Her most famous essay on this subject, The Girl of the Period, was published in Saturday Review in 1868 and was a vehement attack on feminism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rebel of the Family (1880) is the first New Woman novel by Eliza Lynn Linton. Perdita Winstanley, the novel's protagonist, struggles to balance the competing demands of her snobbish, conservative mother and sisters, her radical friends in the women's rights movement, and an admirable but low-born chemist and his family.

This Broadview edition includes a critical introduction and appendices that help to set the work in its historical and literary contexts.

Download or read book Victorian Metafiction written by Tabitha Sparks and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2022-11-17 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critics agree in the abstract that "metafiction" refers to any novel that draws attention to its own fictional construction, but metafiction has been largely associated with the postmodern era. In this innovative new book Tabitha Sparks identifies a sustained pattern of metafiction in the Victorian novel that illuminates the art and intentions of its female practitioners. From the mid-nineteenth century through the fin de siècle, novels by Victorian women such as Charlotte Brontë, Rhoda Broughton, Charlotte Riddell, Eliza Lynn Linton, and several New Women authors share a common but underexamined trope: the fictional characterization of the woman novelist or autobiographer. Victorian Metafiction reveals how these novels systemically dispute the assumptions that women wrote primarily about their emotions or were restricted to trivial, sentimental plots. Countering an established tradition that has read novels by women writers as heavily autobiographical and confessional, Sparks identifies the literary technique of metafiction in numerous novels by women writers and argues that women used metafictional self-consciousness to draw the reader’s attention to the book and not the novelist. By dislodging the narrative from these cultural prescriptions, Victorian Metafiction effectively argues how these women novelists presented the business and art of writing as the subject of the novel and wrote metafiction in order to establish their artistic integrity and professional authority.

Download or read book Determined Spirits written by Christine Ferguson and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-04 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the Spiritualist movement's role in disseminating eugenic and hard hereditarian thoughtStudying transatlantic spiritualist literature from the mid-19th to the early 20th century, Christine Ferguson focuses on its incorporation and dissemination of bio-determinist and eugenic thought. She asks why ideas about rational reproduction, hereditary determinism and race improvement became so important to spiritualist novelists, journalists and biographers in this period. She also examines how these concerns drove emerging Spiritualist understandings of disability, intelligence, crime, conception, the afterlife and aesthetic production. The book draws on rare material, including articles and serialized fiction from Spiritualist periodicals such as Light, The Two Worlds and The Medium and Daybreak as well as on Spiritualist healing, parentage and sex manuals.
