Om denne bog

This major new work makes available a large amount of significant documentary material on the life and work of the 19th-century novelist. This is contextualised by modern analysis by a leading critic.

Geraldine Jewsbury's works focused on the chief concerns of her day including social change, the education of women, marriage, and faith. 

Jewsbury (1812 - 80) was English novelist, book reviewer, publisher's reader, and prominent critic. She is best known for popular novels including Zoe: the History of Two LivesThe Sorrows of GentilityThe Half Sisters, and Right or Wrong. She was also noted for her critical literary reviews for the Athenaeum


She took it on herself to encourage other women to reach their full potential, and her influence mattered. 


This gathering of Jewsbury’s letters, short stories, and essays makes long-unavailable material newly accessible for scholars, students, and general readers, with modern introductions and notes.
