Feminine Voice in Walker’s The Color Purple
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page essay in which the writer argues that finding and defining a feminine voice is the most crucial and central thematic factor in Alice Walker’s The Color Purple. This novel, which is written as letters, that is, in epistolary form, demonstrates how the voice of the protagonist, Celie, changes from that of an abused, traumatized child to the voice of a mature, secure woman. This voice differs dramatically from the patriarchal assumptions of the society of Celie’s era, which is the early twentieth century, as Celie’s perspective slowly evolves away from the paradigms of mainstream culture and she emerges as an independent, spiritually-centered individual. No additional sources cited.

Feminism And Madame de Stael
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. It is quite appropriate to speak of the connection between Madame de Stael and the notion of feminism in nineteenth-century French literature. Indeed, one of the most powerful books on feminist conjecture is that of Corinne, a story Madame de Stael wrote about an aristocratic heroine who is in constant clash with the society around her. This approach to female strength was not a course many writers braved during this time; rather, to put forth the struggles inherent to gender issues was a bold statement about the patriarchal influence of the period. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
