Description

This book explores the variety of forms and discourses employed by members of the Gosse family, tracing the intergenerational, intertextual, and interdisciplinary conversations between its members during the period from the 1820s to the 1930s. It argues that this middle-class family, through a passion for nature and religion, art and literature, produced accounts of biblical or literary figures which took autobiography and biography beyond family parameters, to the life cycles of flora and fauna, and even the 'afterlives' of books. With each generation, inherited models of life narrative are reshaped and repurposed. Kathy Rees draws on a plethora of Gosse manuscript materials as well as published texts to uncover writing intended for both private and public consumption, and to bring to light new works.

Chapter One: Introduction.- Chapter Two: The Memoirs: Thomas Gosse as Family Chronicler.- Chapter Three: Philip Gosse s Nature Writing: The Search for Connexion .- Chapter Four: Nature, War, and the Limits of Official Memory: Philip Henry George Gosse s Memoirs of a Camp Follower (1934).- Chapter Five: Emily Bowes/Gosse: The Divided Self.- Chapter Six: The Biography of Saint Emily by Anna Shipton.- Chapter Seven: Philip Gosse s Illness Narratives: Public and Private.- Chapter Eight: Eliza Brightwen: Sickness, Scripture, and Scraps.- Chapter Nine: My Mother : The Making and Unmaking of a Portrait.- Chapter Ten: From Puritan Shade to Cavalier Sun: The Autobiographical Work of Edmund Gosse s Bookplate (1883).- Chapter Eleven: I, of course, am Tristram Jones : Edmund Gosse s autobiographical romance.- Chapter Twelve: Auto/biography at the Breaking Point: Edmund Gosse s The Secret of Narcisse: A Romance (1892).- Chapter Thirteen: Father and Son (1907) as Gothic Romance.

Kathy Rees is an independent researcher in Victorian literature specializing in the work of Edmund Gosse. She is the co-editor of Edmund Gosse's manuscript, Tristram Jones (2022), and the author of Victorian Non-Fiction Prose: A Companion (2023).
