Book Synopsis
This work reexamines the Victorian spiritual crisis from the perspective of the period's women writers, exploring the spiritual dimension in their writings. Case studies of the lives and writings of Florence Nightingale, Charlotte Bronte, Elizabeth Gaskell, and George Eliot provide an in-depth analysis of the relationship between these crises and narrative strategies that reappropriate the conservative power associated with religious symbolism.
