Abstract
The gendered prescriptions that permeate fairy tales can shape societal structures and perspectives. However, just as literature plays a role in reinforcing societal constructs, it can be used to challenge and subvert them. This paper looks at the form of space in The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Brontë (1848) as a subversion of “Blue-Beard” by Charles Perrault (1697) and its relation to understanding gender as biology, discourse, and construct.
