Produktbeschreibung
Infelice, written by Augusta J. Evans in 1868, is a poignant exploration of the psychological and social dilemmas faced by women in the antebellum South. Through its intricate narrative style, blending romanticism and realism, Evans crafts a rich tapestry of emotions that encapsulate the struggles for autonomy and self-identity. The story revolves around the titular character, Infelice, whose life is marked by personal sacrifice and societal expectations, reflecting the broader themes of woman's role in a patriarchal society. The novel captures the zeitgeist of its era, challenging contemporary gender norms while illuminating the constraints of Southern female existence. Augusta J. Evans was a prominent author of her time, known for her insightful portrayals of women in American literature. Born in 1835 in Alabama, her own experiences in a restrictive Southern environment influenced her writing, rendering her narratives deeply empathetic and resonant with truth. Evans' commitment to addressing women'Äôs issues and her poignant exploration of emotional depth are hallmarks of her literary voice. Her works often reflect her keen awareness of societal expectations, which undoubtedly inspired her to create Infelice. For readers seeking an enriching examination of the complexity of female experience in a historical context, Infelice offers not only a compelling narrative but also a layered critique of 19th-century societal norms. Evans' eloquence and insight render this novel a must-read for students of literature, gender studies enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the evolution of the American narrative.

Autorenporträt
Augusta Jane Evans (1835 1909) was an American novelist best known for her works of Southern literature. Born in Columbus, Georgia, she was raised in the antebellum South and her writing reflects the cultural and social dynamics of that time, often focusing on themes such as familial duty, romantic relationships, and social conventions. A supporter of the Confederacy during the American Civil War, Evans' personal and political views often influenced the content of her works. Her novels gained significant popularity in the late 19th century and became a key example of the "sentimental novel" genre, which was popular among women readers at the time. Evans' novels often highlighted themes of personal sacrifice, religious faith, and the complex roles of women within Southern society. Despite the success of her books, Evans' works were banned by the American Library Association in 1881, possibly due to their perceived moral and religious overtones. Her work continues to be a part of the literary conversation about the American South and its complex history.
