Über Elizabeth Gaskell

Elizabeth Gaskell nació en Londres en 1810 y al casarse se estableció en Manchester, en los inicios de la revolución industrial. El choque con esta sociedad quedaría reflejado en varias de sus novelas, especialmente en Norte y Sur (1855; ALBA CLÁSICA MAIOR núm. XXIV). En 1857 publicó Vida de Charlotte Brontë (ALBA CLÁSICA BIOGRAFÍAS, núm. IV). Otras obras de Gaskell son Cranford (1851-1853, ALBA CLÁSICA, núm. XLII), Cuentos góticos (ALBA CLÁSICA núm. XCIV), Los amores de Sylvia (1863) e Hijas y esposas (ALBA CLÁSICA MAIOR núm. XLII), cuyos últimos capítulos dejaría sin concluir a su muerte, en 1865).
