The work is characterized by its rich imagery and eloquent language, engaging with themes of transformation, identity, and the intrinsic connection between humanity and the natural world, while also critiquing the deterministic views of her contemporaries. Mathilde Blind, a prominent figure in the women’s literary movement, was deeply influenced by the scientific advancements and social changes of her time.
