Produktinformationen zu „A Reputed Changeling; Or, Three Seventh Years Two Centuries Ago (ePub)“
Charlotte M. Yonge's 'A Reputed Changeling; Or, Three Seventh Years Two Centuries Ago' entwines historical fiction with the mythic intricacies of changeling folklore. Set in an England of past centuries, the narrative's rich semantic fabric captures the superstitious undercurrents of the era. Yonge's prose thrives on the fine depiction of a society torn between rational enlightenment and the enigmatic world of fae lore. As young girls murmur of a boy touched by otherworldly forces, Yonge deliberately layers her tale with cultural and religious nuances, exploring the tension between Pagan rites and the emergent Protestant ethos. A master of character study and period detail, the book does not merely recount fables; it breathes life into them, painting a vivid portrait of period beliefs and their palpable impact on everyday lives.
Charlotte Mary Yonge, a prolific Victorian novelist admired for her commitment to the principles of the Oxford Movement, often explored themes of piety and virtue. Through her exploration of tradition and the transcendent, 'A Reputed Changeling' may well reflect Yonge's engagement with religious and moral dilemmas of her time. Her narrative voice, resonant with authenticity and keen observation, suggests an underlying impetus to question the dichotomy between tangible faith and the intangible mysteries of existence. Yonge's dedication to historical accuracy serves as a vessel to convey theological contemplation, entwining the reader in a rich tapestry of time-lost pious discourse, infused with the struggle between emerging modernity and the remnants of a mystical past.
For aficionados of historical fiction and folklore alike, 'A Reputed Changeling' offers a compelling journey through time and belief. Yonge's work is recommended for those captivated by the sway of ancient legend over human hearts and minds, and is particularly suited for readers who savor the investigation of spiritual mores through the lens of literature. Weaving an intricate, contemplative narrative, this book is a refined choice for those who delight in the interplay of history, morality, and the enchanting uncertainty of the supernatural, skillfully threaded with the moral fabric characteristic of Yonge's oeuvre.

Charlotte Mary Yonge (1823-1901) was a prolific English novelist, known for her dedication to the High Church movement and her influential role in 19th-century literature. A devout Anglican, Yonge's work often reflects her religious convictions, intertwining devout characters and moral dilemmas within her narratives. She is most celebrated for her ability to capture the domestic and social challenges of her time, which she did with both sensitivity and a keen eye for detail. One of her works, 'A Reputed Changeling; Or, Three Seventh Years Two Centuries Ago', exemplifies Yonge's literary style that marries historical fiction with didactic elements, exploring themes of identity, transformation, and the moral complexities of the world.
