CHARLOTTE BRONTËS ATYPICAL TYPOLOGY - KEITH A J...

Charlotte Brontë's Atypical Typology traces Charlotte Brontë's reinscription of the Bible
through her four novels  paying special attention to her use of three strategies: gender
reversal  the undermining of traditional notions of God's providential control of human history
and the recasting of several «otherworldly» locales into settings within this world. Although
many scholars acknowledge the importance of Brontë's use of biblical material  and a few may
scrutinize specific passages  the full body of Brontë's adult work has never been examined in
this manner. Indeed  a full understanding of her fiction  as well as her significance within
the Victorian era  cannot be reached apart from such an exploration. Teachers and students of
the Victorian novel in general as well as readers interested in early feminist perspectives
will benefit from learning to read the Bible in the light of Charlotte Brontë's approach.
