Focusing on feminine compliance, this study reinterprets it as an active engagement rather than a passive act. It explores how the domestic novel critically addresses the constraints of Enlightenment modernity, revealing deeper political and social implications. Through this lens, the work sheds light on the complexities of women's roles and their influence on literature and society.
