'Wuthering Heights' and Victorian values

Más información sobre el libro

The paper examines the critical reception of Emily Brontë's novel shortly after its publication and the subsequent defense by her sister, Charlotte Brontë. Following Emily's death, Charlotte felt compelled to advocate for the novel's merit in her 1850 Editor's Preface, while also expressing her own reservations about certain elements of the work. Despite her efforts, the preface failed to elicit more nuanced reviews, highlighting the challenges faced by both sisters in gaining recognition for their literary contributions.
