Bloody Chamber Motifs
Mirrors
The Marquis surrounds the bridal chamber with
mirrors - represents his control and dominance
"I saw him watching me in the gilded mirrors
with the assessing eye of a connoisseur"
Sexual voyeurism - he gains more pleasure from watching
intercourse, as opposed to actually being part of it
His objectification of her
Tigers's Bride
Girl looks into the magical mirror and sees her father's
face instead of her own, as if she has 'put it on'
Fear of becoming him -> focused on material world (wasteful)
Eyes (tears)
Blood
Jewels
Represents materialism
Symbolise purity and innocence,
believed to attract wealth also
"I have lost my pearl, my pearl beyond price"
(Tiger's bride)
Signifies power through wealth
"bloody bandage of rubies"
Rubies thought to
restore youth
"my earrings turned back
into water and trickled
down my shoulders; I
shrugged them off my
beautiful fur"
"I had bled" "bloody sheets"
Destruction of innocecnce
"flashing crimson jewels round her
throat, bright as arterial blood"
Danger, choking, fatality
"Her cheeks are an emblematic
scarlet and white and she has just
started her woman's bleeding"
Seems vulnerable but she is
strong, menstrual cycle, virginity
as her protection
"Never seen her own blood before"
More of a victim than the one inflicting pain"
Blood = discovery
"Heavy eyelids, folded over eyes that always
disturbed me by their absolute absence of
light" (bloody chamber)
Hidden truths -> darkness holds secrets
Lack of light = lack of
human emotion?
"There are some eyes that can eat you" (The Erl-King)
Reference to Little Red Riding Hood
Consuming power of eyes /
eyes as a warning of danger
"Her tears fell on his face like
snow"
Coldness to them, sense of innocence
