Description
An attempt to re-read the construction of the mad female characters of Dickens novels. A main aim is to demonstrate how social rules and forces differentiate mental derangement gender-wise, as far as its causes and manifestations are concerned, within what could be called, in Dickens fiction, a general human tendency toward mental derangement. A further aim is to qualify Dickens reputation for misogynistic blindness and prejudice.
