The Brontës and War
Author: Emma Butcher
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3319956361
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
This book explores the representations of militarisim and masculinity in Charlotte and Branwell Brontë’s youthful writings. It offers insight into how the siblings understood and reimagined conflict (both local and overseas) and its emotional legacies whilst growing up in early-nineteenth-century Britain. Their writings shed new light on a period little discussed by social and military historians, providing not only a new approach to Brontë Studies, but also acting as a familial case study for how the media captivated and enticed the public imagination.

Living by the Pen
Author: Cheryl Turner
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134832338
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Living by the Pen traces the pattern of the development of women's fiction from 1696 to 1796 and offers an interpretation of its distinctive features. It focuses upon the writers rather than their works, and identifies professional novelists. Through examination of the extra-literary context, and particularly the publishing market, the book asks why and how women earned a living by the pen. Cheryl Turner has researched and lectured widely in the field of eighteenth-century women's writing.
