Comparing Nature’s Purification Properties in Charles Kingsley’s “The Water Babies” and George MacDonald’s “At The Back of the North Wind”

April 9, 2024April 9, 2024 Discipline: English

Water Babies is a much more literal purification, compared to “at the back of the north wind” which is a more spiritual purification. Nature is a healing and cleansing property in both, which interestingly prepares people for the afterlife. Both use purification through nature as a method of rebirth, and as preparation for a regeneration or moral reform. I’ve attached my notes and started essay below. Here are the sources I have found.
