Abstract
Although it seems that the rebellion present in the story destroyed some characters for a lifetime, it also revitalized other characters and those around them. At first, Rowson wants us to believe that the story entails a head versus heart motif; however, it is apparent that rebellion against society and following your heart go hand in hand. Through this, Rowson demonstrates the harshness and evils of society and tries to show characters that rebel against society's tough barriers. At a first glance it is seen that Rowson demonstrates rebellion on a destructive level only. This is shown through Charlotte's deceit of her parents, Montraville's betrayal of his father, and La Rue's actions against her boss. After looking further, it should be noticed that rebellion in the novel can also be good. By looking at the characters of Mrs. Beauchamp, Mr. Temple, and John, Rowson demonstrates the importance of rebelling against society and the value of following your heart.
