Books by Patricia Ingham

Patricia Ingham's reader is designed to accompany study of the works of the Bronte sisters. It shows how their writings engage with the major issues that dominate 20th century theoretical work.

Challenging widely-held assumptions about the study of the Victorian novel, this work considers the following examples of the genre: "Shirley" by Charlotte Bronte, "Felix Holt" by George Eliot, "Hard Times" by Charles Dickens and "Jude the Obscure" by Thomas Hardy.
