The purpose of this study is to uncover the ways in which the changing religious landscape of the nineteenth century in Britain, particularly the Dissenting movement, impacted discourses of progress, including the role of women and other social issues. One of the results of the influence of Dissent was a new understanding of time, and this new understanding of time changed the individual's relationship to society, with the result of creating a greater focus on finding solutions for the plight of the marginalized and oppressed. This dissertation identifies two texts as foundational for the new understanding of a woman's role in both the domestic sphere and the culture at large: the text Robinson Crusoe by the Dissenter Daniel Defoe and the text Corinne, Or Italy by Madame de Stael. In British literature, the text Robinson Crusoe originates the biblical image of the castaway as a symbol of the individual; the text Corinne, Or Italy is the source of the image of the woman artist, a trope which became popular for exploring women's roles. The women authors who are the subject of this dissertation, Ann Bronte, Charlotte Bronte, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning, combined and reimagined the tropes of the castaway and of the woman artist in an effort to create a new understanding of the role of a woman which was both contemporary and faith-based. The texts by Ann Bronte Agnes Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall explore the private role of a woman within her own character and in the private domestic setting. The text Shirley by Charlotte Bronte explores a woman's role in a small community and calls current institutions to fulfill their obligations to those in need. The text Aurora Leigh by Elizabeth Barrett Browning broadens the role of the woman to an international level and entertains the idea of the destruction of some institutions; the poem "Runaway Slave at Pilgrim's Point" is Browning's personification of the role of the woman poet as proposed in the text of Aurora Leigh; this poem calls for the end of the global institution of slavery.
