This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 4463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Austen and Brontës: Complete Novels of Jane Austen, Charlotte Brontë, Emily Brontë & Anne Brontë is a monumental anthology that unites the full literary oeuvres of four of the most important and influential authors in English literature. This collection traverses the diverse landscapes of 19th-century British life, weaving together themes of love, independence, social status, and the clash between personal desires and societal expectations. The anthology is unique in its amalgamation of Austen's keen wit and social commentary with the passionate intensity and psychological depth of the Brontë sisters, offering readers a rich variety of styles and perspectives. Long celebrated standouts include 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Jane Eyre', among others, representing the pinnacle of the era's literary achievements. The contributing authors, though contemporaneous, represent divergent experiences, backgrounds, and worldviews within the same historical period. Their works collectively reflect the nuanced evolution of the novel as a form and offer critical insights into the changing roles of women, both within the literary world and in society at large. The Brontës' raw emotional power and gothic elements contrast with Austen's brilliant satire of Georgian society, yet each author's work is a testament to the enduring power of narrative to challenge and reflect the complexities of human nature. This anthology is an indispensable resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in 19th-century English literature. By juxtaposing the works of Austen and the Brontë sisters, it provides a unique opportunity to engage with the era's preeminent voices in a comprehensive dialogue. Readers will not only gain a deeper appreciation for the individual talents of each author but will also witness the collective evolution of the novel as a reflective and transformative medium. This collection is a treasure trove of literary mastery, inviting readers to explore the depths of human emotion, societal constraints, and the timeless pursuit of personal fulfillment.

Download or read book Her Bread To Earn written by Mona Scheuermann and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much criticism has posited an all-powerful patriarchy that effectively marginalized and disempowered women until well into the nineteenth century. In a startling revisionist study, Mona Scheuermann refutes these stereotypes, finding that the images presented by eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century novelists are of functioning, capable women whose involvement with the getting, keeping, and investing of money provides a ubiquitous theme in the novels of the period. Her Bread to Earn focuses on the images presented by the major novels of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, those works that form the core of the canon or that define an important trend at a particular time. Moving through Defoe through Richardson, Fielding, Holcroft, Godwin, Bage, Inchbald, and Wollstonescaft to Austen, Scheuermann demonstrates that novelists of this period depicted women as relatively independent persons, many of whom managed property, shaped and directed events, and controlled their own destinies. These are intelligent women, eager to learn, and ready, sometimes aggressively ready, to act. Scheuermann's eighteenth-century women is drawn in the grays of reality, not in the black and white of ideology. The images she presents go far beyond the patriarchal prison into which modern criticism has sometimes forced the female characters. Certain to spark controversy, this book marks a major shift in received opinion.

Download or read book Emma The Jane Austen Illustrated Edition written by Jane Austen and published by Sourcebooks, Inc.. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special edition of Emma includes the famous illustrations by Charles Edmond Brock, created in 1898. Brock and his brothers were all successful illustrators of the day and often posed for each other using costumes, props and furniture in their Cambridge studio. Brock's younger brother, Henry, also illustrated Austen's books and joined him in illustrating other Austen releases for this set of 1898 editions. In conceiving Emma Woodhouse, Jane Austen set out to create a heroine "whom no-one but myself will much like." A naive and spoiled young lady, she is at the pinnacle of local society and lives with her doddering father. Her neighbor Mr. Knightley is the hero of the tale. Ten years her senior, he sees Emma's faults, and delights in pointing them out to her. Emma, as an heiress, has no need to marry, but she feels strongly that her less fortunate friends must certainly do so, and she is tireless in promoting the best interests of those she holds dear. Her first project is her new friend Harriet Smith, a young lady of unknown parentage, but sweet disposition. After thoroughly disrupting a match between Harriet and a handsome young local farmer, Emma pushes Harriet to aim for the vicar, who himself has his eye on Emma. By the time that misunderstanding is untangled, Emma has Mr. Knightley thoroughly disapproving of her. Against the backdrop of Highbury society, Emma is a charming tale of a young woman coming of age, learning to mind her own business, and discovering her own heart resides with the strong, steadfast gentleman next door.
