“The more I observe the world, the less I like it,” Jane Austen wrote in her novel Pride and Prejudice.Gallant cavaliers, beautiful dresses, balls, poems, carriage rides ... - all this is just a facade. The reality was much more prosaic. Due to the high mortality rate, “post-mortem” photographs came into fashion, depicting families with the corpse of a relative who had just died, to whom a skilled photographer painted on open eyes. Pupils of prestigious boarding schools were kept on bread and water, and as a result, well-bred, but deeply ill women were released into high society. What is it like to be a woman in a society in which doctors seriously believed that all the organs that make a woman different from men are ... pathology? How did they live, what did they talk about and what did the Bronte sisters, Jane Austen and other famous women of the brightest era in the history of Great Britain prefer to keep silent about?
