Produktinformationen zu „That Lass O' Lowrie's (ePub)“
In 'That Lass O' Lowrie's', Frances Hodgson Burnett pens an evocative narrative set within the gritty coal mines of 19th-century England. The novel skillfully portrays the life of Joan Lowrie, a strong and independent-minded woman who rises above her oppressive environment, a testament to Burnett's early feminist leanings. Employing a rich vernacular speech and illustrative descriptions, Burnett captures the essence of her characters and the somber ambiance of the mining community. This work predates her later transition to children's literature, showcasing her versatile mastery of both adult and juvenile storytelling, and is an integral piece of her oeuvre within the Victorian literary canon.
Frances Hodgson Burnett, an author renowned for her charming children's classics such as 'The Secret Garden' and 'Little Lord Fauntleroy,' began her journey with more mature themes encapsulated in 'That Lass O' Lowrie's'. Burnett's own experience of the social inequities of her time no doubt influenced this foray into adult literature. Her keen insight into the plight of the working class and their indefatigable spirit is deeply rooted in her transatlantic life experiences, from industrial Manchester to the United States, infusing her work with authenticity and empathetic depth.
This eloquently crafted tale by Burnett is an enriching read for those who appreciate historical fiction with a hearty dose of character development and social commentary. 'That Lass O' Lowrie's' is recommended for readers who relish the literary artifacts of the Victorian era or for those seeking an early feminist narrative. As DigiCat Publishing endeavors to preserve the literary milestones of human civilization, this work stands out as a deserving classic, evoking both an acknowledgment of past struggles and an inspiration for resilience and self-determination.

Autoren-Porträt von Frances Hodgson Burnett
Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849-1924) was a British-American novelist and playwright known for her children's stories and her ability to render vivid characters and enchanting gardens. Born in Cheetham, England, Burnett migrated with her family to the United States in 1865 following the death of her father, which catapulted her into writing to support her family. Her literary career began with stories in magazines, but her fame skyrocketed with the publication of "That Lass O' Lowrie's" in 1877, a tale that paints a vivid, compassionate portrait of a courageous coal miner's daughter in Victorian England, reflecting Burnett's keen observations and social conscience (Gardner, 1990). This first success was followed by other well-known works such as "Little Lord Fauntleroy" (1886), "A Little Princess" (1905), and "The Secret Garden" (1911), which have become timeless classics due to their exploration of themes such as resilience, transformation, and the redemptive power of nature. Burnett's writing is characterized by a blend of realism and romantic idealism, with an undercurrent of practicality, possibly informed by her own life experiences (Thwaite, 1974). Her lush, descriptive prose and ability to capture the innocence and wisdom of her child protagonists have ensured her place in the canon of English literature and continue to delight readers to this day (Carpenter, 1987).
