| Abstract: |
The Bildungsroman traditionally narrates an individual’s journey toward maturity and social integration. When examined through female experience, however, this progression becomes complex and often unstable. This paper explores the transformation of the female Bildungsroman through a comparative reading of Jane Eyre and The Bell Jar. While Brontë’s novel presents a structured movement shaped by moral endurance and culminating in self-realization, Plath’s work disrupts this pattern by depicting psychological fragmentation and unresolved identity. The study argues that this shift reflects a broader transition from nineteenth-century confidence in coherent selfhood to modern uncertainty about identity formation. By examining social expectations, gender roles, and inner conflict, the paper demonstrates how the female Bildungsroman evolves from a narrative of resolution into one marked by ambiguity, thereby expanding its relevance within an increasingly global literary framework today. |
