L. E. L. : the lost life and scandalous death of Letitia Elizabeth Landon, the celebrated "female Byron" / Lucasta Miller. by Miller, Lucasta, author. New York : Alfred A. Knopf, 2019. Subjects L. E. L. (Letitia Elizabeth Landon), 1802-1838.   Women and literature -- England -- History -- 19th century.   Poets, English -- 19th century -- Biography. ISBN:  9780375412783 (hardcover) : 0375412786 (hardcover) : Description:  xii, 401 pages, 12 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations ; 25 cm Edition:  First edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  Lucasta Miller tells the full story and re-creates the literary London of her time. She was born in 1802 and was shaped by the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars, a time of conservatism when values were in flux. She began publishing poetry in her teens and came to be known as a daring poet of thwarted romantic love. We see L.E.L. as an emblematic figure who embodied a seismic cultural shift, the missing link between the age of Byron and the creation of Victorianism. Miller writes of Jane Eyre as the direct connection to L.E.L.--its first-person confessional voice, its Gothic extremes, its love triangle, and in its emphasis on sadomasochistic romantic passion.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 821.7 Landon Mi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 821.7 Landon Mi Checked In Add Copy to MyList
