Elsie B. Michie here provides insightful readings of novels by Mary
Shelley, Emily and Charlotte Bront, Elizabeth Gaskell, and George
Eliot, writers who confronted definitions of femininity which
denied them full participation in literary culture. Exploring a
series of abhorrent images, Michie traces the links between the
Victorian definition of femininity and other forms of cultural
exclusion such as race and class distinctions.
