Just some tidbits my English teacher passed on from our studies of Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Far from the Madding Crowd (my favourite), and Wide Sargasso Sea. I thought they would be handy for anyone interested in the Victorian Era a.k.a. Sherlock Holmes fanfiction-ers. :) I am by no means an expert, but sharing is caring!

Excellent overview ( Read more... )

I can understand the paper business - just completed one on Edith Head that was six pages plus bibliography. *passes you the tea thermos* We would have already died salute you. :)

Oh, and great essay on Jane Eyre! I read that book in Highschool and couldn't quite understand why I loved it so dang much to actually read the whole thing in one sitting over the course of three hours. Possibly now I can put it down to tone of narrative voice. :D

I'm glad you found it interesting! I personally liked Far from the Madding Crowd the best out of all of my books, but I did enjoy Jane Eyre.

Thanks for the tea! *sips*
