Produktbeschreibung

Anne Brontë's 'The Tenant of Wildfell Hall' is a powerful and controversial novel that shines a light on the issues of alcoholism, women's rights, and the oppressive nature of marriage in Victorian society. The book is written in a unique epistolary format, providing readers with a firsthand account of the protagonist's experiences. Brontë's vivid descriptions and engaging narrative style make this novel a compelling read that continues to resonate with readers today. The literary context of the novel places it alongside other works of Victorian literature that challenged societal norms and conventions. With its complex characters and thought-provoking themes, 'The Tenant of Wildfell Hall' remains a timeless classic in the world of English literature. Anne Brontë, the youngest Brontë sister, drew upon her own observations and experiences to create this groundbreaking novel. As a governess, Anne had firsthand knowledge of the struggles faced by women of her time, which is reflected in the novel's depiction of the protagonist's fight for independence and self-determination. Anne's bold and courageous storytelling sets her apart as a writer unafraid to address difficult and controversial topics. I highly recommend 'The Tenant of Wildfell Hall' to readers who enjoy thought-provoking literature that delves into complex social issues. Anne Brontë's masterful storytelling and insightful exploration of gender dynamics make this novel a must-read for anyone interested in Victorian literature or feminist literature.

Autorenporträt

Anne Brontë was born at Thornton in Yorkshire on 17 January 1820, the youngest of six children. That April, the Brontës moved to Haworth, a village on the edge of the moors, where Anne's father had become the curate. Anne's mother died soon afterwards. She was four when her older sisters were sent to the Clergy Daughters' School at Cowan Bridge, where Maria and Elizabeth both caught tuberculosis and died. After that, Anne, Charlotte, Emily and Branwell were taught at home for a few years, and together, they created vivid fantasy worlds which they explored in their writing. Anne went to Roe Head School 1835-7. She worked as a governess with the Ingham family (1839-40) and with the Robinson family (1840-45). In 1846, along with Charlotte and Emily, she published Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell. She published Agnes Grey in 1847 and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall in 1848. That year, both Anne's brother Branwell and her sister Emily died of tuberculosis. A fortnight later, Anne was diagnosed with the same disease. She died in Scarborough on 28 May 1849.
