Britain boasts a rich heritage of great writers whose works have earned global
fame and remain firm favourites many years after the death of their creators, in
some cases many hundreds of years later. In this wonderful collection of
programmes we seek out what inspired many of the true greats to bring us such
classic works as Hamlet, Pride and Prejudice, Great Expectations and many, many
more. We examine the locations, from the back streets of London to the rolling
moorlands of Yorkshire, the childhoods and home lives of our subjects, and the
social, political and religious backdrop against which they were writing.
The
Classic Literature Collection will give you a fresh insight into the motivation
and character of your favourite writer, and a new way of looking at their work.
