Victorian Morality in Thomas Hardy's "Tess of the d'Urbervilles"
Detalji
NaslovVictorian Morality in Thomas Hardy's "Tess of the d'Urbervilles"
Sažetak radaThis paper is concerned with the concept of Victorian morality and how it showcases in one of Thomas Hardy’s most prominent works, Tess of the D’Urbervilles. Throughout the prosperous reign of queen Victoria, English society showcases a specific type of behaviour known under the term of Victorian Morality. There are several aspects of Victorian morality: specific code of conduct, restraint, intolerance towards crime and religion. The concept of such morality and the society which requires it are criticised throughout the novel as hypocritical, and full of double standards applying only to women and proscribing the idea of an ideal woman. Because of this, Tess was, at first, seen as an immoral character, until Hardy himself justified her actions numerous times. This is also the reason why the subtitle of the novel is A Pure Woman Faithfully Presented. Tess was never immoral by society’s definition, but she was rather its victim and the victim of men who used their dominance to their advantage.
