Sažetak
This thesis analyses the use of the marriage plot in Victorian novels, more specifically in Wilkie Collins‘s The Woman in White (1860), and its appropriation in James Wilson‘s neo-Victorian novel The Dark Clue (2001). By examining the marriage plot and its relationship to the changing notions of marriage in the Victorian period, the thesis offers a broad analysis of the gender dynamics in middle-class marriages as portrayed in these two novels. The analysis will be carried out through a close reading of both novels, followed by a contextualization that will explore the historical and literary trends they belong to. Special attention will be given to the analysis of the neo-Victorian re-imagining of Collins‘s characters in Wilson‘s novel.
