The Brontes and the Idea of the Human

Science, Ethics, and the Victorian Imagination

Omschrijving

An interdisciplinary reevaluation of the novels and poetry of Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë draws on scholarly insights to demonstrate how their respective creative approaches reflected the scientific, legal, political, theological, literary and cultural realities of the 19th century Investigating links between literature, science, psychology, religion, law, and ethics, this study re-evaluates nineteenth-century understandings of what it means to be human. Leading scholars argue for the centrality of the idea of the human within the works of the Brontë sisters, offering new insight on their writing and cultural contexts.
