The Brontes

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the Brontë sisters' literary contributions, this collection of essays explores the diverse interpretations of their works from their contemporaries to modern critics. It highlights key themes such as gender, class, and race, revealing how these issues have evolved in literary criticism. Organized by theoretical frameworks like feminist, Marxist, psychoanalytic, and postcolonial perspectives, the volume serves as a valuable resource for both undergraduate and postgraduate students studying nineteenth-century literature and cultural theory. Patricia Ingham's introduction provides essential context for understanding these critical developments.
