Pen Names In 'What's In A Name'

The works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle provide evidence of classism; the easily identified separate social classes, during the Victorian-era. His writing graphically proving the status quo of the times. If someone created an act of crime, it was to advance in class or the characters are trying to stay in the same style class before some event happened. In a time when females were considered meek and frail. That is how they are written besides for the occasional exception. The easily flustered gender in distress scenario is repeated in many of the adventures. If he strays from that it is for a purpose. Typically, intensifying the story.

In this stanza, Anne Bradstreet grows even more fantastical in her causticity, using phrases such as “If e’er you deign these lowly lines your eyes” (99), and she also claims that her unskilled writing is like a rough ore and men’s like refined gold, and announces that she only writes in order to further complement the work of the males of that day and age. This is especially clever on her part, because her level of sarcasm may make men give her credit, but is also somewhat of an inside joke, making fun of the enormous egos of men and how they believe that even acknowledging the talent of a woman would somehow make them less of a masculine

She was regarded during her time as intelligent writer as well as today. Her writing style was viewed as original and unlike anything else. This is proven by remarks by her professors and brother. “Her

Back in the 19th century women writers, such as Emily Brontë (wrote Wuthering Heights) weren’t taken seriously. So I’m glad that society has become a bit more equal in the sense of

First of all John Steinbeck brings to light sexism throughout the novel through the character Curley's wife. Curley's wife isn’t even given a name throughout the story she is only an object to the men. A text example of this would

She uses her writing to express her ideas on women being significant figures in the world, or at very least the field of writing. She makes note of the history of writers and how strongly women have been involved in the process for a number of years, “But sure the antique Greeks were far more mild / Else of our sex, why feigned they those nine / And poesy made Calliope’s own child” (Bradstreet 31-33).Bradstreet includes this line to establish the belief to her readers that women have been and should continue to be significant figures in the world of writing and the arts. With the muses of the famed Greeks being women and successful poets themselves, Bradstreet hopes to argue that women were important and proficient in the trade that men laid claim to in her time. In all of her piece, Bradstreet’s main idea that she hopes to convey is that since women have been such staples in the art for so long that it only makes sense for them to be allowed to still.While both authors write in ways that express “radical” ideas for their respective time periods, they were sure to write in methods that did not serve to be inflammatory to their largely opposing audiences. This is the point in which their differences truly shine: their execution of this

Another instance given of this was when her family decided to sign a paper in which would result in not having to pay costs for her. She refused to let them get away with it and decided to quickly do something about the condition. Also, without a doubt, I knew that Maggie was nothing like her sister when Maggie bought a house for her family, the first thing her sister said was “Where is the kitchen? The stove? The fridge?” Unlike her sibling, she does not fit into the conventional image of a woman’s only purpose being cooking and cleaning. She was sure to not end up like neither nor her mother and sister living such ways. And again, when her mother told her: “Find yourself a real man, be more proper. People here laugh at you.” indicating the

Not only does Wollstonecraft criticizes male writers, but female writers as well. When describing how children books and letters on education written by Madame Genlis have “useful hints” that are used by “sensible parents”, it appears that Wollstonecraft is applauding Genlis’ works. However, her sarcasm is blunty presented when she states parents who agree with genlis beliefs on how to raise subservient children “ will certainly avail themselves”(106). Wollstonecraft condemn Genlis because she believes that forcing children into utter submission creates orthodox thinkers, but more specifically women. In order to illustrate the correlation between obedience and lack of intelligence, She explains how men gain “ knowledge… by the exertion of

Gender profiling is another atrocity controlled by the hands of publication companies. Not to suggest the similarities between race and gender are identical, but to point out that injustices being handed out from the media are nothing new. For example, women in centuries past used pseudonyms to get their work published, such as Louisa May Alcott who penned her early writings under the name of A.M. Barnard, gaining notoriety first as a male writer before publishing works under her real name. Society and publishers have long held an ideology as to what material would be best-suited for writers, according to society's impression of one's race and gender. The struggle still exists for writers today. For example, publishers thought it acceptable for author Scott Westerfeld to pen the Uglies series, whose main character is a fifteen-year-old girl, yet, the famous Harry Potter series author, J.K. Rowling was told it was not wise for a woman to be writing from the perspective of a young boy. Therefore, she was asked by her publisher to forego the usage of her first name and also to create a middle initial. Rowling also wanted to write crime novels, but to do so successfully, in the world of literary critics, she adopted the pseudonym of Robert Galbraith. After all, who would buy any other type of genre after the success Harry

Unfeminine Feminism In the nineteenth century, which was more commonly known as the Victorian Era, Europe and North America believed in the ideology of separate spheres which was intended to show off the fact that men and woman were not equal. It was understood that men were a part of the public sphere where they would go out to work and mainly have a social life, while woman belonged in the domestic sphere where they were expected and encouraged to be stay at home mothers and cook/clean all day. Fundamentally speaking, society did not see woman as real people. Woman were not allowed to vote, claim property, nor where they able to get an education.

Joanne K. Rowling is a plagiarist. Here are some facts to consider: Rowling does not have a middle name. My middle name is Ronald, my father's first name. I am the original creator of the Harry Potter stories before the plagiarism of it occurred. J. K. R. was formed by me as my mother's preferred name is Joy. I chose the name Joe as my first author name because my main character was first named after a girl I knew named Joanne. That was in 1980 when she was nine years old. I was 22. I am a Leo, so I chose letter K from the word "King" from the title name of my second story: 'The Lion King'. Letter R was taken from my father's first name and I named my friend in the story of Harry Potter 'Ronald' because of that. Joanne K. Rowling is a plagiarist. I

Women’s voices in mainstream literature has morphed and transformed throughout the years. From early 17th century with the first female poet Anne Bradstreet all the way to 1960’s housewife heroes in novels, women’s roles in text has reflected their place in society during date of publication. Art mirrors real life as the saying goes, and that’s very much applicable to literary arts especially. Women’s place in society has definitely progressed since Puritan time and early America but has their track progressed in as linear line as suspected. With benchmarks such as the suffrage to vote to the first ever female big party candidate for the presidential election, it’s suspected that women have only gone up in their rights to speak and their strength of voice in society. Taking a second look at perceptions and everyday obstacles women have faced throughout time paints a much more scattered and branching line of progression. Progress may not be as straightforward as suspected.

Many authors use different types of literary devices in order to communicate with their audience to portray their perspectives on real world problems or messages through the novel. Messages found in children’s books could be as simple as being kind to one another. The messages or the author’s perspectives found in adult novels could have more meaning to it. These messages could be about real world problems that exist today or in the past. Some authors could have strong opinions about these real life problems and express their opinions through their novels. For example, a real world problem that is often portrayed in novels is the roles of gender and their independence. According to the online dictionary, gender roles can be defined as, “the public image of being male or female that a person presents to others”. Independence can be defined as, “freedom from the control, influence, support, aid, or the like, of others”. In the early 1900s down in the South, gender roles and their independence was very prominent. Women who were white started to gain more independence, and their low paying jobs gave them a little more freedom. They started to develop their own identity instead of being identified by their husbands. While women who were African Americans did not get the same independence that white women got.They were still being identified based on their husbands, and they still had do all the responsibilities of a mother and will do the same things as men, like working on the

This double standard is actually stated and "justified" by another woman, which accurately highlights the way of thinking in the 18th century that Fielding evidently recognized.
