Geraldine Jewsbury : [unknown review]

'[italics] Is [end italics] Miss Jewsbury's review shallow? It looked to me very deep, but then I know I'm easily imposed upon in the metaphysical line, and could no more attempt to write such an article than fly'

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell      Print: Serial / periodical

  

Geraldine Endsor Jewsbury : Zoe: The History of Two Lives

Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, ?7 January 1846: 'Zoe [...] I have been reading at last. An extraordinary book certainly. I should take the author to be a free-thinker, by a copious interpretation of the word. The power, & liberty of utterance, are undeniable generally -- but parts of the book are very inferior.'

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Elizabeth Barrett Barrett      Print: Book
