Some Reflections Upon Marriage
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. The concept that men are entitled to inherent privileges in marriage, while women have to earn their place in the same state of matrimony, is the clear implication in Mary Astell's "Some Reflections Upon Marriage." Asserting feminist views about the vast differences between the roles men and women play in relationships, Astell contends that the fairer sex has routinely been victimized by society merely because of gender; that women are lesser human beings in any respect is a concept foreign to the author's forward thinking structure. The writer discusses the concepts of marriage, roles and feminism as they relate to the essay. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Kate Chopin's The Story of an Hour

Freedom means many things to many people. In The Story of an Hour, by Kate Chopin, freedom is the sum and total of the thematic enterprise. The protagonist's deepest wish is for freedom and Chopin is able to embed both the desire and the attainment of freedom within her writing style through the use of recurring metaphors and symbols, as well as the story line. This 5 page paper argues that freedom from the social constraints of the conventions of gender role during the Victorian era are the first of the freedoms that Chopin addresses.
