Description

Explore the literary connections between Brontte's famous debut and the mythic traditions that shaped it. Jane Eyre's Fairytale Legacy at Home and Abroad: Constructions and Deconstructions of National Identity offers a deep look into the nationalistic stakes found within the heroic female bildungsroman tradition. Author Abigail Heiniger examines how Jane Eyre functions as a heroic changeling. The text traces how Charlotte Brontte incorporated regional, pre-Victorian fairy lore from Haworth into her writing, and how Brontte later moved away from these influences in her novel, Villette. This study tracks how this heroic figure influenced female writers on both sides of the Atlantic, providing a clear view of how fairytale paradigms impact national identity in literature.
