Byron?s influence on the other Brontė siblings is well-documented but absent in Anne?s history. Building on recent discourses of rich intertextuality in Anne?s work, Jessica Lewis reveals her relationship with the poet as significantly different from that of her siblings. Instead of trying to emulate Byron or derive inspiration from the concept of ?mix?d essences? or elemental affinity, Anne?s relationship with him is grounded in their shared Calvinistic upbringing and a rejection of its stringent principles, which propels both writers to positions of contemporary religious controversy. This volume reappraises Anne Brontė and her work in light of significant Byronic influence, and provides new readings of her novels and poetry. Dr Jessica Lewis works as a part-time lecturer in English Literature at the University of South Wales, UK. Her research interests broadly lie in Victorian fiction with particular emphasis on Brontė studies, but always include the more macabre elements of Victorian literature including disease, death, medicine and surgery and slum fiction. She is also interested in tales of the ecological, botanical and zoological Gothic. 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y19th century 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aLiterature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aIntermediality 606 $aNineteenth-Century Literature 606 $aEuropean Literature 606 $aLiterary Criticism 606 $aIntermediality 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 0$aLiterature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aIntermediality. 615 14$aNineteenth-Century Literature. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 615 24$aLiterary Criticism. 615 24$aIntermediality. 676 $a809.034 700 $aLewis$b Jessica$01790630 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910986127903321 996 $aAnne Brontė and Lord Byron$94327373 997 $aUNINA
