Heroines of Fiction is a two-volume collection of essays by the American author and literary critic, William Dean Howells. In these volumes, Howells examines the portrayal of female characters in classic works of fiction, with a focus on the 19th century. He analyzes the roles and personalities of heroines such as Jane Austen's Elizabeth Bennet, Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, and George Eliot's Dorothea Brooke, among others. Howells offers insightful commentary on the social and cultural contexts in which these characters were created, as well as their significance in the literary canon. By exploring the heroines of fiction, Howells provides a unique perspective on the evolving roles and representations of women in literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
