Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "There never was a wilder story imagined," wrote one reviewer on the first publication of Frankenstein in 1818: "we do not well see why it should have been written." The admiring Sir Walter Scott felt that Frankenstein's "unexpected and fearful events. shook a little even our firm nerves". The prophetic power of novel's imagery in reflecting the dehumanising effects of science, technology, empire, business and the mass media has never abated. Writing in 2002, Jay Clayton said: "As a cautionary tale, Frankenstein has had an illustrious career; virtually every catastrophe of the last two centuries - revolution, rampant industrialism, epidemics, famines, World War 1, Nazism, nuclear holocaust, clone, replicants and robots - has been symbolized by Shelley's monster. Perhaps more than any other novel, Frankenstein has been interpreted as a warning impeding events." For some readers these warnings have produced a monstrous creation in place of Mary Shelley's own. "Frankenstein is a product of criticism, not a work of literature," argues Fred Botting. Yet if the metaphorical interpretations of the novel appear to exceed the adolescent fantasy which gave rise to them, this is in itself a tribute to the original work, concludes Levine: "The book is larger and richer than any of its progeny and too complex to serve as mere background. The novel has qualities that allow it to exfoliate as creatively and endlessly as any important myth." In this book, Josie Billington looks at the story and its legacy, and sifts the vast repertoire of critical opinion to give us the most interesting verdicts on the novel. The shocking story of Frankenstein seems as relevant today as it was when it was written nearly 200 years ago. Josie Billington tells us why.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Jane Eyre, published on 16th October 1847, was an instant popular success. More than 150 years later, it still powerfully affects its readers with all the charge of a new-minted work. It is easy to forget, now, how shocking it was to its mid-19th century readers. Virtually every early reviewer felt obliged either to condemn or defend its impropriety. As Josie Billington reminds us in this compelling guide, the most savage reviews denounced the "coarseness" of language, the "unfeminine" laxity of moral tone, and the "dereliction of decorum" which made its hero cruel, brutal, yet attractively interesting, while permitting its plain, poor, single heroine to live under same roof as the man she loved. What caused most outrage, perhaps, was the demonstrable rebellious anger in the heroine's "unregenerate and undisciplined spirit", her being a passionate law unto herself. "Never was there a better hater. Every page burns with moral Jacobinism," wrote an early critic. As the poet Matthew Arnold was to say of Bronte's "disagreeable" final novel, Villette, "the writer's mind contains nothing but hunger, rebellion and rage". In this book Josie Billington looks at the passion and indeed rage which filled Bronte, and shows us that, though sometimes criticised for melodrama, this is a novel of great intellectual seriousness, moral integrity and depth of feeling. She quotes George Henry Lewis: "It is soul speaking to soul; it is an utterance from the depths of a struggling, suffering, much-enduring spirit. An incisive, entertaining analysis of one of the greatest romantic novels in the English language - one which challenged 19th century stereotypes at every turn.
