Book excerpt: Charlotte Brontë: legacies and afterlives is a timely reflection on the persistent fascination and creative engagement with Charlotte Brontë’s life and work. The new essays in this volume, which cover the period from Brontë’s first publication to the twenty-first century, explain why her work has endured in so many different forms and contexts. This book brings the story of Charlotte Brontë’s legacy up to date, analysing the intriguing afterlives of characters such as Jane Eyre and Rochester in neo-Victorian fiction, cinema, television, the stage and, more recently, on the web.

Engagingly written and illustrated, the book will appeal to both scholars and general readers.

Download or read book Time, Space, and Place in Charlotte Brontë written by Diane Long Hoeveler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organized thematically around the themes of time, space, and place, this collection examines Charlotte Brontë in relationship to her own historical context and to her later critical reception, takes up the literal and metaphorical spaces of her literary output, and sheds light on place as both a psychic and geographical phenomenon in her novels and their adaptations. Foregrounding both a historical and a broad cultural approach, the contributors also follow the evolution of Brontë's literary reputation in essays that place her work in conversation with authors such as Samuel Richardson, Walter Scott, and George Sand and offer insights into the cultural and critical contexts that influenced her status as a canonical writer. Taken together, the essays in this volume reflect the resurgence of popular and scholarly interest in Charlotte Brontë and the robust expansion of Brontë studies that is currently under way.

Download or read book The Professor written by Charlotte Brontë and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-07-10 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time a major novel by Charlotte Brontë appears in an edition based directly on the author's manuscript. Like her other mature work, The Professor owes much to her relationship with M. Heger, her Brussels schoolmaster. The first of her full-length novels, it is of special interest since it was written comparatively soon after her experiences in Brussels in the early 1840s, but not published until 1857, after her death. A full introduction gives an account of its composition, analyses the manuscript, and describes the circumstances of its eventual publication, in an inaccurate form, under the editorship of A. B. Nicholls. Appendices include an unused `Preface' - one of Charlotte Brontë's attempts to `recast' the novel - and a list of substantive variants between the manuscript and the first edition. Her last fragmentary novel, `Emma', begun after Villette, is now transcribed directly from the author's rough draft, instead of from the polished and revised text produced by Nicholls, George Smith, and Thackeray for the Cornhill Magazine in 1860. The volume contains full indexes to Biblical and literary allusions in Charlotte Brontë's four major novels, thus giving a fascinating guide to the nature and extent of her reading. The editors also make use of continuing research by providing a list of additions and corrections to all previous volumes in the Clarendon Brontë series.

Download or read book The Oxford Companion to the Brontës written by Christine Alexander and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-12 with total page 914 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special edition of The Oxford Companion to the Brontës commemorates the bicentenary of Emily Brontë's birth in July 1818 and provides comprehensive and detailed information about the lives, works, and reputations of the Brontës - the three sisters Charlotte, Emily, and Anne, their father, and their brother Branwell. Expanded entries surveying the Brontës' lives and works are supplemented by entries on friends and acquaintances, pets, literary and political heroes; on the places they knew and the places they imagined; on their letters, drawings and paintings; on historical events such as Chartism, the Peterloo Massacre, and the Ashantee Wars; on exploration, slavery, and religion. Selected entries on the characters and places in the Brontë juvenilia provide a glimpse into their early imaginative worlds, and entries on film, ballet, and musicals indicate the extent to which their works have inspired others. A new foreword to the text has been also penned by Claire Harman, award-winning writer and literary critic, and recent biographer of Charlotte Brontë. This is a unique and authoritative reference book for the research student and the general reader. The A-Z format, extensive cross-referencing, classified contents, chronologies, illustrations, and maps, both facilitate quick reference and encourage further exploration. This Companion is not only invaluable for quick searches, but a delight to browse, and an inspiration to further reading.

Download or read book Imagining Italy written by Michael Hollington and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08-11 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a companion volume to Dickens and Italy, edited by Michael Hollington and Francesca Orestano, which aimed to fill an important gap in our understanding of England’s paramount novelist by studying his personal, political and literary relation to the foreign country he loved best of all of those he visited. Its focus is wider and its scope more ambitious and speculative. Without in any way leaving Dickens or his writings about Italy behind, the attempt here is to approach the Victorian fascination with that country from a broader, more theoretical perspective in which several current debates about travel writing are taken up and critically redeployed. The book is articulated in three parts. Part One concerns what the writings of Dickens and other Victorians can tell us about the history and theory of travel and travel writing, and Part Two, what they can tell us about particular Victorian writers themselves and their work. In Part Three the focus shifts in order to compare writing and visual representations of the experience of ‘abroad’ in general and Italy in particular, in an era when what can be thought of as modern visual culture is gradually taking shape. The book aims to show that the study of how Victorians imagined Italy can lead to a deeper understanding of some of the stereotypes that continue to inform contemporary tourism.

Download or read book The Belgian Essays written by Charlotte Bronte and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Venturing out of Yorkshire for the first time in their lives, the Bronte sisters Charlotte and Emily traveled to Brussels in 1842, and Charlotte returned for another visit in 1843. The journeys proved to be pivotal in both their writing careers. Under the tutelage of their brilliant teacher Constantin Heger, the young authors penned the twenty-eight essays (devoirs) collected for the first time in this volume. Each essay, presented in its original French, is accompanied by an English translation and commentary to establish historical and literary context. Where M. Heger made comments, they are reproduced in full. Nine of the essays have never been published before. Sue Lonoff offers a mine of information on the Brontes and their Brussels experience, exploring why the months in Belgium meant so much to the sisters and how their writing exercises affected their developing prose styles.

Download or read book The Cambridge History of the English Novel written by Robert L. Caserio and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 1006 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge History of the English Novel chronicles an ever-changing and developing body of fiction across three centuries. An interwoven narrative of the novel's progress unfolds in more than fifty chapters, charting continuities and innovations of structure, tracing lines of influence in terms of themes and techniques, and showing how greater and lesser authors shape the genre. Pushing beyond the usual period-centered boundaries, the History's emphasis on form reveals the range and depth the novel has achieved in English. This book will be indispensable for research libraries and scholars, but is accessibly written for students. Authoritative, bold and clear, the History raises multiple useful questions for future visions of the invention and re-invention of the novel.

Download or read book Stemming the Torrent written by Gesa Stedman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-10 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2002: Gesa Stedman mines the vein of emotion in Victorian writing to unearth new insights into the ways literature responded to the dramatic social and political changes then taking place. Contemporary research from various disciplines, including sociology, ethnology and history, inform this study, which juxtaposes canonical material such as Dickens' "Hard Times", Charlotte Bronte's "Shirley" and Germaine de Stael's "Corinne" with popular novels and non-fictional texts, such as "The Education of the Heart" by Sarah Ellis and Darwin's "On the Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals". The analysis deals with emotions applying to both genders, but includes a special section examining the representation of emotion in relation to women. The book aims to provide new insight into the literature of the period, and brings to light new material for scholars interested in the philosophy and psychology of emotions.
