Expert Solution
The
novels "Wide Sargasso Sea" by Jean Rhys, "Jane Eyre" by
Charlotte Brontë, and "Emma" by Jane Austen tend to deeply explore
aspects of racialization, gendered agency, and colonial domination. The varied
characters in these novels play instrumental roles, for instance, how they
navigate the oppressive systems, makes it possible for one to relate with and
examine the manner in which race and gender would substantially influence
individual agency. There are connections between various themes in the novels, which
potentially highlight the nuanced portrayals in every story through quotations
and examples.
