The supernatural and textual uncertainties of Victorian ghost story were used as both a critique of and alternative discourse to the dominant narrative of the Victorian period. The women writers chose the non-realist mode of ghost story to represent the complexities of Victorian women's experiences and to redefine the Victorian patriarchal order. This paper examines feminist concerns and narrative strategies in Victorian women writers' ghost story focusing on Margaret Oliphant's A Beleaguered City.
In A Beleaguered City, Oliphant shows how the distinction between the Unseen and the Seen can be blurred by using the multiple narrations. She represents the ways in which public and private authority are intermingled with each other in the crisis of Semur. Martin Dupin, as the mayor of Semur, focuses on the preservation of the patriarchal order throughout the crisis. By contrast, the interpretive differences resulting from the various narrators challenge his authorial control of the document and undermine his view of women and religion. The diverse interpretations of the crisis represent the city's complex relations of class and gender, which shows the political tensions in the city. Moreover, the pluralistic array of female voices of Chapter Ⅷ and Ⅸ undermines powerfully Dupin's complacent view of women. His multi-vocal voiced document disintegrates his own political and interpretive authority.
In the mode of ghost story, Oliphant explores her ambivalence about her critical authority as a journalist and constructs woman's rhetoric for her literary career. Her use of supernatural mode and multiple points of view is linked to her desire to explore the middle-class value system of the Victorian period, and the contradictory discourses on women.
