Ambiguity in Charlotte Brontë's 'Villette'

Charlotte Brontës final novel 'Villette' (1853) is associated with ambiguity because of its open ending: Does M. Paul return to narrator-protagonist Lucy Snowe or is he killed in a storm raging on the Atlantic? Taking its famous ending as a starting point, this study explores 'Villette' as a text in which ambiguity is all-pervasive in various ways. 283 Seiten, gebunden (Close reading - Schriften zur britischen Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaft; Vol. 3/V&R unipress 2020) leichte Lagerspuren, Mängelexemplarstempel auf Schnitt/minor shelfwear, remainder mark stamp on edge
