A sympathetic view of the fallen women in Victorian England begins
in the novel. First published in 1984, this book shows that the
fallen woman in the nineteenth-century novel is, amongst other
things, a direct response to the new society. Through the
examination of Dickens, Gaskell, Collins, Moore, Trollope, Gissing
and Hardy, it demonstrates that the fallen woman is the first in a
long line of sympathetic creations which clash with many prevailing
social attitudes, and especially with the supposedly accepted
dichotomy of the 'two women'. This book will be of interest to
students of nineteenth-century literature and women in literature.
