註釋In 'The discarded daughter; or, The children of the isle' by Emma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte Southworth, readers are transported to the world of 19th-century sentimental literature with a tale of love, betrayal, and redemption. The novel follows the story of a young girl, abandoned by her family, who navigates the challenges of growing up without a mother's guidance. Southworth's literary style is characterized by its emotional depth and vivid descriptions of the natural world, reflecting the sentimentalism popular in her era. The book is a classic example of 19th-century domestic fiction, exploring themes of family dynamics, social class, and moral duty. With its intricate plot and engaging characters, 'The discarded daughter' offers readers a glimpse into the moral complexities of the Victorian society. Emma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte Southworth was a prolific American writer known for her popular novels in the mid-19th century. As a contemporary of Harriet Beecher Stowe and Louisa May Alcott, Southworth's works contributed to the development of sentimental fiction in America. Her firsthand experience as a teacher and governess likely influenced her portrayal of the struggles faced by young women in 'The discarded daughter'. I highly recommend 'The discarded daughter; or, The children of the isle' to readers interested in exploring the themes of family, duty, and redemption in 19th-century literature.
