Protecting Miles and Flora in The Turn of the Screw Essay -- Henry Jam

Protecting Miles and Flora in The bite of the ScrewI saw my service so strongly and simply. I was there to protect anddefend the little creatures The g everyplaceness sees it as her duty toprotect Miles and Flora. What do they exigency protection from and howdoes Henry James illustrate this in his novel The work on of the Screw?Henry Jamess Turn of the Screw can be interpreted in many distinguishableways. He constructed his novel in order to make allusions to sexualtopics, (without stating anything explicitly) madness, shadows and the squeamish society. In this essay I will be analysing each of the in a higher placein order to make a conclusion as to what I speak out the infantren needprotecting from.As for the ghosts being toast or not, this can be argued. A eyeshadearguing the ghosts are present is in the introduction of the story.The man telling the story said he knew the governess and he creditsthe story with being a real ghost tale and the governess as being areal her o. Another point suggesting the ghosts are present is thatwhen the governess sees Peter Quint she is able to go defend to MrsGrose with a fairly full description of him, even though she had neveractually met him whilst he was alive. Another aspect of the novel that shows the ghosts exist is the wording used to describe Miles and flora. They are called cherubsand have religious connections made dictum they are angelic. Thegoverness sees Flora as so very unparalleled and the most beautifulchild ever seen. The children seem to be withal perfect. Flora isdescribed as being the most perfect child yet so many supernaturalthings occurs it is quite unbelievable that she is so very sweet andinnocent.Going onto a point suggesting the g... ...s or over imagine, for example, when she seesMiles looking at up she instantly is convinced he is not looking at her,but just above her and at a soul and that person is Quint. Could thegoverness be 100% sure that Miles was looking above her and not ather? As I think the governess is mentally unstable, the next bar I see hertaking is protecting her sexuality and safety. The governess producesan image which is the distaff ghost of Miss Jessel. This allows PeterQuint and Miss Jessel to be sexually involved and the governessprotecting herself.This leaves me to say, that the ghosts are a part of the governessesimagination. I think this because I do not find the governess areliable narrator. If anything the children need protecting from it isfrom the governess and her unstability. I think this is what broughtabout her unbalanced behaviour.
