Produced by Delphine Lettau, Pat McCoy and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Woman Novelists of Queen Victoria's Reign: A Book of Appreciations" by Mrs. Oliphant et al. is a collection of essays that provide critical assessments of women novelists from the Victorian era, written in the late 19th century. This compilation highlights the contributions and literary significance of notable figures such as Charlotte Brontë, George Eliot, and Mrs. Gaskell, among others. The book aims to celebrate the achievements of these female authors, whose prominence in the literary world often stemmed from their unique perspectives and experiences as women. At the start of the volume, Mrs. Oliphant introduces the Brontë sisters, focusing primarily on Charlotte Brontë and the impact of her work on literature during a time of notable male dominance. Oliphant discusses the contrasting nature of the Brontë sisters and illustrates how Charlotte's genius emerged amidst an era richly populated with talented male authors. Delving into their tumultuous lives, she highlights how the sisters' limited social experiences, alongside their creative aspirations, shaped their narratives. Oliphant emphasizes Charlotte's groundbreaking protagonists, and her novels’ exploration of gender roles and personal agency, setting the tone for an appreciation of the complex interplay between their life circumstances and literary achievements.
