Download or read book Oroonoko written by Aphra Behn and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-05-25 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oroonoko is a novel by Aphra Behn, published in 1688, concerning the love of its hero, an enslaved African in Surinam in the 1660s, and the author's own experiences in the new South American colony. It is one of the earliest English novels. Interest in it has increased since the 1970s, critics arguing that Behn is the foremother of British women writers, and that Oroonoko is a crucial text in the history of the novel. Aphra Behn (baptised 14 December 1640 – 16 April 1689) was a prolific dramatist of the English Restoration, the first English professional female literary writer. Her writing contributed to the amatory fiction genre of British literature. Along with Delarivier Manley and Eliza Haywood, she is sometimes referred to as part of "The fair triumvirate of wit." Behn's work Oroonoko (1688) is critically acknowledged as important to the development of the English novel. She was also a key writer in seventeenth century theatre. She is perhaps best known to modern audiences for her short novel.

Download or read book The Complete Novels written by Charlotte Brontë and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-11-29 with total page 3112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'The Complete Novels' of Charlotte, Anne, and Emily Brontë, readers are presented with a seminal collection that not only showcases the varied literary styles of the three sisters but also serves as a pivotal exploration of themes such as gender roles, morality, and the human struggle against societal constraints. Spanning Gothic romances to probing social commentaries, the anthology charts a significant trajectory in 19th-century literature, offering standouts such as the tempestuous landscapes of Wuthering Heights and the introspective journey of Jane Eyre. Each novel, rich in psychological depth and complexity, reflects the Brontë sisters' innovative approaches to narrative and character development, marking a departure from the convention of their time. The Brontë sisters emerged from a context of constrained female authorship to significantly impact English literature. Despite their relatively isolated upbringing on the Yorkshire moors, their works transcend their circumstances, aligning with and propelling forward the literary movements of their time, including Romanticism and Victorian realism. Collectively, their novels embody a defiant critique of the societal expectations and strictures placed upon women, while individually, each sister carves a distinct literary path that reflects her unique worldview and artistic sensibility. 'The Complete Novels' is an indispensable volume for those who seek to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Brontë literature. It not only offers a comprehensive exploration of the sisters' collective contribution to English literature but also provides a platform for readers to engage in a profound dialogue with the texts, uncovering layers of social commentary, moral inquiry, and emotional depth. This collection is a testament to the enduring power of the Brontë sisters' work, inviting readers to ponder the complexities of the human condition through the lens of three of the most influential female voices in literary history.
