Abstract

William Faulkner created, through his use of varied stylistic devices, a female essence: a characterization that embodies an earth mother or reproductive female, an earth goddess or erotic female, and several characteristics common to both. When taken as a whole, such characteristics-- fecundity, innocence, adaptability, and apparent stasis in time and space--epitomize Faulkner's female essence.
