I investigate the novels' treatment of female sexuality across various social classes, Victorian ideas regarding women's intellectual capacities, women's body autonomy, and the position of women of colour, as well as the New Woman movement, a possible response to the various forms of discrimination that women faced in the Victorian period.42enVictorianismCanadaMurdochwomensocial issuesdiplomamunkaDEENK Témalista::Irodalomtudomány
