Dissenting Women in Dickens' Novels: The Subversion of Domestic Ideology
Brenda Ayres
Victorian novels frequently presented women as angels in the home, and were often considered vehicles for propagating moral norms. This work examines how the Dickens text subverts conventional Victorian ideology through a convoluted characterization of women that fails to promote domesticity.
