Dickens and the Daughter of the House - Cambridge Studies in Nineteenth-Century Literature and Culture
Schor, Hilary M. (University of Southern California)
The daughter in Dickens' fiction is considered not as an emblem of tranquil domesticity and the hearth-fire, but as a bearer of cultural values - and as a potentially disruptive force. The daughter's secret inheritance, her 'portion', is to give Dickens a way of reading and writing his own culture differently.
