Page "Charlotte Brontë" Paragraph 39

The Green Dwarf, A Tale of the Perfect Tense was written in 1833 under the pseudonym Lord Charles Albert Florian Wellesley.

It shows the influence of Walter Scott, and Brontë's modifications to her earlier gothic style have led Christine Alexander to comment that, in the work, " it is clear that Brontë was becoming tired of the gothic mode per se ".
