In this video, we explore the best headmistresses and headmasters in classic novels and discuss why they deserve more attention. Headteachers in classic fiction often embody the tension between institutional authority and personal conviction. They can be tyrants, mentors, bureaucrats, or revolutionaries and they tell us a great deal about what their societies valued in education, both the process itself as well as philosophical vision. ✨ *Let me know in the comments* ✨ Do you like to read books that feature headteachers? What books Ive mentioned here seem the most interesting to you or are already your favorites? And have you watched South Riding? ✨ *Books Mentioned* ✨ South Riding by Winifred Holtby: This 1936 masterpiece offers one of literatures most nuanced portraits of school leadership and community politics (so. much. politics). https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/south-riding_winifred-holtby/654436/?resultid=419c72db-1459-4b44-8c23-72f8e398dd00#edition=4699234&idiq=3818020 Villette by Charlotte Brontë: Set in a girls boarding school in Belgium, this book boasts one of Brontës most fascinating (and complex!) characters. https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/villette_charlotte-bront/3251050/?resultid=13ee52e2-c0e6-4016-a1a6-bdc93b19fd00#edition=8107143&idiq=48739698 Christopher Plummer reading Good-Bye Mr. Chips by James Hilton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eS 9rax7UA or read the physical copy: https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/good-bye-mr-chips_james-hilton/319782/?resultid=46dbdd68-ab8f-4909-93be-9c99bdd2fcc6#edition=3754487&idiq=226393 Miss Read frequently features headmistresses in her popular series as well as standalone novels.

With no electricity I was free to disconnect and settle into my book retreat plan of reading classic horror by lamplight as the sun sets. 📚 Books featured in this video: • The Willows – Algernon Blackwood • The Wendigo – Algernon Blackwood Complete Works here: https://amzn.to/4zxUJF2 This was part reading retreat, part isolation experiment. Could I make it the full 24 hours surrounded by nothing but forest and classic horror? And did Blackwoods nature-based terror hit different while I was actually off-grid? ✨ *Let me know in the comments* ✨ Have you ever read any Classic Horror? Somehow reading nature horror from 100 years ago seems manageable and not *too* terrifying. This post may contain affiliate links.
