Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper"
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page essay that discusses the short story classic. The writer argues that Charlotte Perkins Gilman's short story "The Yellow Wallpaper" can be understood as offering a multifaceted reflection of Victorian patriarchal, imperialist sensibilities as a whole. The narrative deals with the journal entries of an unnamed female protagonist, a wife and mother who descends slowly into seeming insanity. However, the implied characterization of her husband/physician John suggests a poststructuralist interpretation that pictures the narrator in the position of colonial populations who were dominated by Western Victorian men, such as John. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Giovanni Boccaccio's Tenth Tale, Tenth Day And Chaucer's The Wife Of Bath: Analysis
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Giovanni Boccaccio's Tenth Tale, Tenth Day tells his story of Griselda as an answer to Chaucer's The Wife of Bath tale and philosophy. When one ponders the opposition of The Wife of Bath's Prologue and Tale as it relates to Boccaccio's tale of Griselda, it is easy to see how they represent completely divergent personalities. Chaucer's Alisoun, on the one hand, is a strong and defiant woman who lets no one stand in her way. Griselda, by contrast, is the victim of spousal brutality and has absolutely no way to escape it, either mentally or physically. No additional sources cited.
