This book is an exploration of the thematic contents of Charlotte Bronte’s fiction, analyzing her major novels on an integrated plane, and simultaneously comparing them with major works of other contemporary leading novelists living or dead. As such, this study records her stand of unconventionality and novelty. The first chapter is an Investigation into the seedy backgrounds to their themes of alienation predicament, predicament, and love and marriage, the Second and the Third a demonstration of the cruelty of alienation and the pinch of predicament in the lonely life of Charlotte’s heroines. But the Fourth chapter discovers that the primary and predominant concern of her fiction is love and marriage, and so it solemnizes the triumph of the passionate, revolutionary woman in love who seems to be agreeing with done: “To make them manly tooâ€. Here again this study exhibits hw the novelist asserts the independence and the individuality of woman on equal footing with man. Thus Charlotte Bronte’s crusade through the realism of The Professor and Shirley and the romanticism of Jane Eyre and Villette envisages a world where women should not be victims, if not always victorious. The conclusion sums up her vision of human life, giving due allowance to destiny and hostile forces. Dr. Singh’s study will serve as a very illuminating and stimulating analysis of Charlotte Bronte’s novels leading to the promotion of healthy attitude towards women and an understanding of their principal problems.
