Om Charlotte Bronte, Embodiment and the Material World
Comprising nine original essays by specialists in material culture, book history,
literary criticism and curatorial and archival studies, this co-edited volume
addresses a wide range of Brontë’s writing—from vignettes composed during her
teenage years (ΓÇ£The Tea PartyΓÇ¥ and ΓÇ£The SecretΓÇ¥) to completed novels (The
Professor, Jane Eyre, Shirley and Villette) and unfinished works (ΓÇ£AshworthΓÇ¥ and
ΓÇ£EmmaΓÇ¥). In bringing to life the surprising array of embodied experiences that
shaped Brontë’s creative practice (from writing to book-making, painting, and
drawing), Charlotte Brontë, Embodiment and the Material World forges new
connections between historical, material, and textual approaches to the authorΓÇÖs
work.
