a volcanic literature of the body as well as the heart

What does "volcanic literature of the body" mean in the text below? Is the writer saying Charlotte Bronte devoted a great deal of her writings to describing body and sensations?

In rejecting Austen and deciding instead to write about "what throbs fast and full, though hidden, what the blood rushes through, what is the unseen seat of life," Charlotte Bronte had chosen a volcanic literature of the body as well as of the heart, a sexual and often supernatural world. She was thus seen as the romantic, the spontaneous artist who "pours forth her feelings . . . without premeditation." George Eliot was seen as the opposite: a writer and a woman in the Austen tradition, studied, intellectual, cultivated.

Solution 1:

*Volcanic literature" is a simple analogy between two things: geological volcanism; and life as depicted by Bronte. Volcanic systems are often quiet and smoulder gently for long periods, underlain by latent subterranean motions, punctuated by dramatic eruptions of destructive violence or irresistible force. The literary creations of Bronte similarly are based on normally lived life, which is underlain by undercurrents of sex, greed, jealousy and other emotions; these occasionally break out with destructive consequence or irresistible force, as in the tale she tells.
