Did Charlotte Bronte transform the ancient tale of 'Cupid and Psyche' into one of literature's most enduring novels?
In this compelling study, Elizabeth Imlay argues that 'Jane Eyre' is a bold reworking of fairy-tales dating back to the tragic myth, recast through the consciousness of a 19th-century woman seeking passionate love. By tracing Jane's symbolic journey through earth, air, fire, and water-body, spirit, passion, and reason-Imlay reveals how Bronte reshapes the story through a feminist lens, redefining love as a unity of the spiritual and the physical, making 'air' a female element.

Elizabeth Imlay, MA Oxon, was born into a Freethinking family, her father being a classical scholar and her mother a linguist. She was educated at a school for the daughters of Evangelical missionaries, where she obtained a thorough grounding in the Bible, French and Latin. She read English Language and Literature at Oxford, which at that time demanded a knowledge of French, Latin, Anglo-Saxon and Middle and Modern English. She has worked in publishing and journalism and is now a widow with two grown-up children.
