[headline]Provides an intimate portrait of Victorian life - especially women's' lives - that uncannily anticipates the way we live now Offering a modern edition of an Anglo-Scottish epistolary classic, drawn from the authoritative scholarly edition, the letters of Jane Welsh Carlyle are works of art in themselves, but also shed light on the Victorian age and the experience of women within it. Arranging her letters chronologically alongside a biographical summary, this collection includes Jane's correspondence concerning a large range of Victorian intellectuals and other identities, from Mazzini to Dickens, Elizabeth Barrett Browning to Ruskin and Tennyson to George Eliot. These letters are commonly regarded as among the liveliest in the language, alongside those of Byron, Keats, Henry James and Virginia Woolf, and are a key document in feminist history and the history of female authorship.
