Download or read book Cometh Up As A Flower written by Rhoda Broughton and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important sensation novel, Cometh Up as a Flower made Rhoda Broughton’s reputation and fortune while also attracting harsh criticism. Nell LeStrange, the heroine, is tricked by her calculating sister into leaving her poor lover and marrying a wealthy man she does not love. What angered critics of the time was the heroine’s frank discussion of her sexual attraction to her lover, and her dispassionate evaluation of loveless marriage as a form of self-sale. Broughton’s lively, colloquial narrative voice, witty observations of contemporary manners, and sympathetic portrayal of the lives and feelings of young women, though no longer shocking, are as engaging now as they were to her readers of 1867. This Broadview Edition includes an extensive selection of appendices on the novel’s reception (including a parody of Broughton), Victorian discourses on health and medicine, and contemporary attitudes towards women, marriage, and sexuality.

Endless appeared to me the lengths of moony turnpike, the wood-shaded windings and twistiugs among Lord Stencliffe's great quiet oaks and beeches. Whether it was all love and no champagne, or all champagne and no love, or half love and half champagne, or three quarters love and one quarter champagne, or one quarter love and three quarters champagne, I cannot say, but certain it is, that Hugh became inconveniently tender--tender in the moonlight, tenderer far in the shade. I, in my own mind, ascribed an undue preponderance to the champagne element, and suffered agonies of apprehension lest the grooms behind should overhear his amorous platitudes. "Jolly and big the moon looks, doesn't it? like a Cheshire cheese!" The moon, the sacred moon, the be-songed, the be-sonneted moon, the moon that Romeo sware by, and that Milton saw " Stooping thro1 a fleecy cloud," like a Cheshire cheese! "How poetical," said I, sardonically. "No, it isn't poetical, I know. I'm not up to the dodge of poetry. I don't go in for those kind of things. I would though, if it would make you like me any better." Cupid and the vintage of Epernai have infused a certain sentimentality into the dark middle-aged eyes that contemplate me. "How soon shall we be home?" I ask, abruptly, looking at him discomfortably, and thinking how plain the crow's feet come out in the moonlight. "Home! Why we've hardly set out yet. We haven't got to the fourth milestone by Thorny Hill, you know!" "Haven't we?" "What are you in such a hurry to get home for? I feel as if I should not mind going spinning along here for ever behind such tidy cattle and with you beside me!" As he speaks we reach a toll-gate, and the sleepy toll-keeper descends in a slight and sketchy attire, suitable for the...

Download or read book The Awkward Age in Women's Popular Fiction, 1850-1900 written by Sarah Bilston and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2004-07-22 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates that 'the awkward age' formed a fault-line in Victorian female experience, an unusual phase in which restlessness, self-interest, and rebellion were possible. Tracing evolving treatments of female adolescence though a host of long-forgotten women's fictions, the book reveals that representations of the girl in popular women's literature importantly anticipated depictions of the feminist in the fin de siècle New Woman writing; conservative portrayals of girls' hopes, dreams, and subsequent frustrations helped clear a literary and cultural space for the New Woman's 'awakening' to disaffected consciousness. The book thus both historicises the evolution and mythic appeal of the female adolescent and works to receive suggestive exchanges between apparently diverse female literary traditions.
