Write an essay of minimum 1250 words (five pages)
Consider Mr. Rochester's relationship with his wife, Antoinette Cosway, in the context of the cultural perceptions and expectations of the time in which the action of Wide Sargasso Sea takes place. Research the early 19th-century British ideas about life in the West Indies, in particular about white West Indian women. To what extent does Mr. Rochester seem influenced by these ideas? How do they affect his marriage? What appraisal of these ideas is suggested by the novel? If you choose this topic, there is one source in particular that I want you to use. It is available online; it is a master's thesis by Chloe Aubra Northrop, entitled "White Creole Women in the British West Indies: from Stereotype to Caricature." The information that you will need for this paper is found mostly in Chapter 1--Introduction and Chapter 2--Creole Women in Travel Histories.
