Devoted Sisters: Representations of the Sister Relationship in Nineteenth-Century British and American Literature

Sarah Annes Brown
0/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
"Devoted Sisters seeks to explore - and explain - the power of the sister bond in nineteenth-century literature. Sarah Annes Brown has researched a wide range of British and American texts, including both canonical works, such as Pride and Prejudice, Little Women and Middlemarch, and fascinating but lesser known novels by authors such as Dinah Mulock Craik and Catherine Sedgwick. In addition to contemporary resources such as conduct books, letters, and accounts of parliamentary proceedings, Devoted Sisters draws on recent psychoanalytical and anthropological research to illuminate nineteenth-century depictions of the sister relationship." As well as scholars and students of Victorian literature, this book is aimed at all readers with an interest in the dynamics of family relationships, particularly those who are - or have - a sister.
