مستخلص المنشور

This article is a reaction against Charlotte Bronte’s criticism that reads her work either within a biographical context or a reactionary objective framework. The article examines the author’s borrowing of a certain episode in an Eastern tale for her novel Villette and claims Bronte as a self-conscious artist. She works in deliberate awareness of self, text and reader.
