Produktinformationen zu „North and South (World Digital Library Edition) (PDF)“
A novel of feminine conduct in the Victorian era, North and South deals with everything from “dressing for tea” to strikes and mutiny. Margaret, the novel’s heroine, laments, “Life, however, was yet in my possession, with all its requirements, and pains, and responsibilities,” yet still she remains steadfast. A study in contrasts, the poignant novel deals with life and death, happiness and sorrow, home and homesickness, both in the North of England and in the South.
Autoren-Porträt von Elizabeth Gaskell
Gaskell was born Elizabeth Cleghorn Stevenson on September 29, 1810. Her family lived in Chelsea (now Cheyne Walk.) After her mother died when Gaskell was still a toddler, her father, William, took her to North England to stay with an aunt. He remarried, and didn’t see her again until she was twelve years old, causing her to feel abandoned. At twenty, she married William Gaskell, a Unitarian minister like her father, and moved to 1 Dover Street, Manchester. She had four daughters, and worked as a pastor’s wife among the young girls who labored long hours in the city’s cotton mills. A frequent traveler, the nature of her foreign correspondence reveals that she was a private person – she wanted the letters burned – who was more industrious and organized than passionate.
