- W3100290725 abstract "Jean Rhys Wide Sargasso Sea 1 (1966) is a postmodern parodic rewriting of Charlotte Bronte s canonical novel Jane Eyre 2 (1847) in which the postcolonial woman novelist writes the absented side of the silenced Bertha Mason. This paper seeks to study Rhys s text as a coming-out party for Bertha, who leaves the confines of voicelessness and savageness to celebrate, first, her splitting-subjectivity that endows her with much leeway not only to challenge her readerly representation as the madwoman in the attic in the original work but also to embrace her capacity to rebirth herself as Antoinette Cosway who espouses the multiplicity of her identities and the plurality of her selves. Second, her fragmented narrative structure enables her to upset the conventional concepts of objective truth and conclusive meaning, opening the floor to the free play of signs and the free-floating articulation of different realities. Third, her hybridity is no longer perceived as a dysfunctional space; it turns out to be a liberating site which enables her to subvert the conventional concept of purity, stressing the fact that cultural identity is a matter of being and becoming rather than of being. Fourth, Bertha s excessive passion and uncontained sexuality are openly articulated instead of being repressed." @default.
