Book Overview

The Bronte Sisters by Ernest Dimnet is a comprehensive exploration of the lives and works of the three literary geniuses, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Bronte. The book delves into their upbringing, their early writings, and the challenges they faced as women writers in the Victorian era. The author provides a detailed analysis of their most famous works, including Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, and examines their impact on English literature. The book also sheds light on the personal lives of the sisters, their relationships with each other and their family, and the tragedies that befell them. Through extensive research and insightful commentary, Dimnet offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of the Bronte sisters, their unique voices, and their enduring legacy.The French original of this volume was published in 1910. This translation is what the original aimed at being: frankly and simply a literary biography. Among the most celebrated English writers are the Bronte sisters. Charlotte enjoyed extraordinary popularity; and she and Emily and their youngest sister Anne joined the ranks of the immortals. It is hoped it will please readers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
