| Defining Romanticism: The Implications of Nature Personified as Female in Frankenstein and Jane Eyre | ||
| This interesting paper explores the portrayal of nature as female in two famous literary works, Frankenstein and Jane Eyre, and begins with a discussion of a new classification and definition of Romanticism. Several examples of the personification of nature as female are included for both novels, and the author uses excerpts from each story to support her claims. Also discussed are several instances from Jane Eyre where the role of nature as female is reinforced and ultimately restored. | ||
