Mansfield Park, Washington Square, alienación doméstica, integridad moral, individualidadResumen
Mi objetivo en este artículo es argumentar que Washington Square (1880), de Henry James, es una rescritura no reconocida de Mansfield Park (1814), de Jane Austen. Para ello, he analizado ambas narraciones como ficciones de alienación doméstica en las que las heroínas se niegan a permitir que su individualidad sea subyugada por; (a) la autoridad patriarcal y la mala gestión paternal; (b) las interferencias y las intromisiones de sus manipuladoras tías; o (c) la corrupción libertina de sus engañosos pretendientes. A pesar de haber sido sometidas a coacciones y manipulaciones, Fanny Price y Catherine Sloper se rebelan contra las presiones de la autoridad paterna y emergen como las verdaderas preservadoras de la integridad moral.
