Résumé

Edmund Gosse's "Father and Son: A Study of Two Temperaments" serves as a poignant exploration of the complex relationship between the author and his father, the strict and devoutly religious Philip Gosse. Written in a reflective and introspective literary style, the book combines autobiography with critical analysis, illuminating the divergent temperaments that shaped their lives. Within the context of Victorian England, Gosse candidly addresses themes of faith, individuality, and the generational conflict between scientific inquiry and religious belief, rendering a rich psychological portrait that echoes the broader cultural tensions of the era.
Edmund Gosse, a noted literary critic, poet, and biographer, draws upon his upbringing in a strict Plymouth Brethren household to create this intimate narrative. His father, a renowned naturalist and biblical literalist, instilled in him a profound love for nature but also a restrictive framework of religious thought. This dichotomy offers insights into Gosse's later struggles with faith and his eventual embrace of literature and science, a transition that informs the stirring duality expressed in his memoir.
"Father and Son" serves as a compelling read for anyone interested in the interplay of personal identity and familial influence. Through its eloquent prose and deep psychological insight, the book not only elucidates the historical context of its narrative but also resonates with contemporary readers grappling with similar themes of belief, autonomy, and the defining impact of parental relationships.
