Emily Brontë Knihy

Převyprávění klasického románu o chudé, osiřelé dívce, která přes nejrůznější útrapy nakonec najde štěstí.

Tento historický román se odehrává na Drozdově a Větrné hůrce od druhé poloviny 18. století do počátku 19. století. Působivý román je mistrnou psychologickou studií člověka, který zasvětil život pomstě. Autorka sugestivně líčí prostředí, v němž hrdina vyrůstal, objasňuje příčiny, pro které se z normálního chlapce vyvinul v ovzduší nenávisti tvor, který splácí všechny domnělé i skutečné křivdy nelidským způsobem a jenž nezná slitování ani sám se sebou. Jediná bytost, žena, která je schopná učinit z něho normálního člověka, se provdá za jeho soka a za dramatických okolností umírá. Tím jsou spáleny všechny mosty mezi hrdinou a okolním světem a začíná příběh fanatické pomsty na všech příslušnících rodiny milované ženy.

The Bront sisters won immortality through their novels, but they and their brother Branwell were also outstanding poets. This generous selection of their best poems gives readers access to the personal feelings and observations woven into their great novels, from Anne's loneliness as a governess to the thrill Emily felt on the wild moors.

This superb anthology of poems contains Emily Bronte's verses in their entirety, including her private and posthumously published poetry, as compiled and edited by the literary critic Clement Shorter. The Complete Poems of Emily Bronte is a collection assembled both from past publications featuring Emily Bronte's works, and private collections discovered after her death by members of her family. Although her verse compositions are overshadowed to this day by her phenomenally successful novel Wuthering Heights, they remain worthy examples of the Romantic era form. The poems situated at the conclusion went unpublished for decades and did not appear in print until 1908. Emily Bronte was a private character, who took very little interest in promoting her works to the public. As such, many of these poems never appeared in print until years or even decades after her death in 1848. Alongside the poems themselves is a biographical introduction which explains the most pivotal events in Emily's life.

Includes the novels Jane Eyre, Villette, Wuthering Heights, Agnes Grey, and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall.

Jane Eyre, Shirley, Villette, and The Professor by Charlotte Brontë and Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë are included in this new addition to the Library of Literary Classics.

The literary masterpieces of the three Brontë sisters in one volume: Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. This handsome leather-bound edition includes the most acclaimed novels of each of the Brontë sisters: Charlotte’s Jane Eyre, Emily’s Wuthering Heights, and Anne’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Originally published under male pseudonyms in the 1840s, these three novels later helped give rise to the feminist literary movement of the late nineteenth century, in which women’s perspectives became more accepted by the mainstream reading public. A scholarly introduction provides an overview of the sisters’ childhood in northern England, their literary influences, and their enduring legacy.

The poems of Emily Jane Bronte are passionate and powerful works that convey the vitality of the human spirit and of the natural world. This book contains poems attributed to her that describe the mythic country of Gondal and its citizens that she imagined with Anne, and remain the only surviving record of their joint creation.
