Hertha (1856) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781104262945)

Hertha is a novel written by Swedish author Fredrika Bremer and published in 1856. The story follows the life of the titular character, Hertha, a young woman living in Sweden during the mid-19th century. Hertha is a strong-willed and independent woman who challenges the traditional gender roles and societal expectations of her time. Throughout the novel, Hertha navigates her relationships with the men in her life, including her father, brother, and romantic interests. She also grapples with her own desires and ambitions, ultimately striving for personal fulfillment and happiness. Bremer uses Hertha's story to explore themes of gender, identity, and individualism, making the novel a significant contribution to the feminist literature of the 19th century. The book is also notable for its portrayal of Sweden during this period, offering a glimpse into the country's social and cultural landscape. Overall, Hertha is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that remains relevant to contemporary discussions of gender and identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
