THEORY OF THEOLOGY IN WIDE SARGASSO SEA BY JEAN RHYS

Abstract

Jean Rhys' last novel, Wide Sargasso Sea, is by and large related to women's activist and post-frontier issues. This examination endeavors to peruse this novel as an impression of Jean Rhys' view of the actual nature as profoundly enlivened. Uncovered, particularly, in her self-portrayal, Rhys trusts in a world soul that is reflected in all presence as the indication of a more prominent power. Human love particularly, in the entirety of its structures, replaces her faith in God. Rhys mirrors a similar faith in Wide Sargasso Sea, as the principle struggle that leads both Antoinette and Edward Rochester into misfortune, when Rochester neglects to conform to this supernatural reality on account of his Victorian reproducing. Awed by the actual impressions of Antoinette's affection for him due to his rigid upbringing, Rochester neglects to comprehend the otherworldly extension of it, which he sees as sexy as it were. Disconformity between Rochester’s material English reality and Antoinette’s West Indian otherworldliness diverts the two characters from a glad association.
