English literature of the XIX century was a unique environment in which a whole pleiad of talented women writers and poets appeared. Despite the fact that in literature, as well as in society, reigned patriarchal order, the work of the Brontë sisters, Jane Austen and other female authors managed to find a way to the reader and prepare him for the future feminist turn in the literature of modernism. The faces of this era were talented, enlightened and strong of its representatives, to whom the book is dedicated to literary scholar A. Livergant. It includes three essays: "Unrivaled Jane" about Jane Austen, "The House in the Cemetery" about Charlotte, Emily, Anne and Branwell Brontë and "Victorian Sibyl" about Mary Ann Evans, who wrote under the pseudonym George Eliot. In each of them, the author reflects on the creativity and fate of the heroines, immersing their biographies in a detailed historical context. Alexander Livergant is a PhD candidate in art history, philologist, translator, and editor-in-chief of the journal Foreign Literature. He is the author of numerous works on English and American literature.
