| Résumé | Ce mémoire examine les personnages, la métatextualité, et la "Woman Question" du roman Shirley de Charlotte Brontë en utilisant le dialectique Maître-Esclave du philosophe allemand Georg Hegel. |
| Résumé en anglais | Charlotte Brontë's Shirley is analyzed by equating the characters' differing power balances as well as the novel's intertextuality and metatextuality through an interpretation employing the Hegelian Master-Slave Dialectic. The struggles of the rioting mill-workers are paralleled to the novel's middle-class women. The male characters effectively are placed in the Master/Lord status while the women are delegated the Slave/Bondsman role. In her identity's fluidity, Shirley Keeldar embodies the both Master and Slave spheres yet ultimately relinquishes her Master dominance upon her marriage to Louis Moore. |
