Beschreibung zu „3 books to know Brontë Sisters“

Welcome to the3 Books To Knowseries, our idea is to help readers learn about fascinating topics through three essential and relevant books.
These carefully selected works can be fiction, non-fiction, historical documents or even biographies.
We will always select for you three great works to instigate your mind, this time the topic is:Brontë Sisters:


- The Tenant of Wildfell Hall , by Anne Brontë.
- Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Brontë.
- Wuthering Heights, by Emily BrontëAnne's second novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, was published in the last week of June 1848. It was an instant, phenomenal success; within six weeks it was sold out. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is perhaps amongst the most shocking of contemporary Victorian novels. In seeking to present the truth in literature, Anne's depiction of alcoholism and debauchery was profoundly disturbing to 19th-century sensibilities.
Charlotte's Jane Eyre tells the story of a plain governess, Jane, who, after difficulties in her early life, falls in love with her employer, Mr Rochester. They marry, but only after Rochester's insane first wife, of whom Jane initially has no knowledge, dies in a dramatic house fire. The book's style was innovative, combining naturalism with gothic melodrama, and broke new ground in being written from an intensely evoked first-person female perspective.
Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights was first published in London in 1847. Wuthering Heights's violence and passion led the Victorian public and many early reviewers to think that it had been written by a man. According to Juliet Gardiner, "the vivid sexual passion and power of its language and imagery impressed, bewildered and appalled reviewers."
This is one of many books in the series 3 Books To Know. If you liked this book, look for the other titles in the series, we are sure you will like some of the topics.

Über Emily Brontë

Emily Jane Brontë nació en 1818 en Thornton, en el norte de Inglaterrra. Hija de un clérigo, perdió a su madre a temprana edad y se educó junto con sus cuatro hermanas y su hermano Branwell en una rectoría aislada en los páramos de Yorkshire. Durante un breve período, asistió a la escuela de Cowan Bridge ?un siniestro internado que Charlotte retrataría en su novela Jane Eyre¬?, pero tras la muerte de sus hermanas Maria y Elizabeth ambas prosiguieron su educación en casa. Emily siempre destacó por su fuerte temperamento y su carácter reservado y huraño. Todos sus intentos por integrarse en el mundo ?un viaje a Bruselas junto con Charlotte para aprender francés, unos meses como institutriz? se saldaron con un apresurado regreso al hogar, donde Emily permanecería hasta su muerte en 1848, a los treinta años.Emily Brontë publicó en vida sólo unos cuantos poemas, que aparecerían en un volumen junto con los de sus hermanas Charlotte y Anne bajo los seudónimos de Ellis, Currer y Acton Bell, y la novela Cumbres borrascosas (1847).
