Reading one of the articles published in the last issue of Brontë Studies :

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall: What Anne Brontë Knew and What Modern Readers Don't pp. 255-257(3)

Author: Bellamy, Joan

Abstract: Anne Brontë placed her novel firmly in the context of women's legal status of her times and the slow changes being brought about. Readers today miss the significance of much of Anne's writing because they are not aware of these issues.

we have remembered one recent book published by the University of Cambridge: "Marital Violence. An English Family History, 1660–1857", written by Elizabeth Foyster in which Anne Brontë's Tenant of Wildfell Hall is discussed.
