Akademische Arbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: This paper deals with the question, to what extent the "The Secret Garden" influences Mary Lennox and her cousin Colin Craven and what effects does this have on their states of mind. Life and nature are at the centre of action. Even today, the garden motif is steadily present in the literature, and it also finds a high value in children's literature. A prime example of a book in children's literature is The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett, which was first published in 1911; it has been reissued on every occasion up until today. As the title suggests, the garden plays a central role in the book and seems to bring with it a mysterious aspect. The present term paper focuses on this very garden and explains how it influences the protagonists Mary Lennox and Colin Craven.
