Fanny Fern: The Not So Humorous History of Feminist Satire In the 21st century, many women, myself included, take for granted that we can wear whatever we desire and say what we want, in public, without the fear of being thrown in jail. However, that was not always the case. While the fight for the continued advance of women’s rights rages on, women of the 19th century lived a very different life than the one, us women, lead today.

It was originally composed by Berlin in 1918 while he was serving in the U.S. Army. He set the song aside for a while and didn’t pick it back up until he later revised the piece in 1938.

Lady Chatterley's Lover, written by DH. Lawrence was first published in 1928. The novel follows around the protagonist of the story, Lady Constance Chatterley. The story is about how this woman, who is trapped in a loveless and almost sterile marriage, finds emotional and physical love with the gameskeeper of her husband's estate.

On August 30th 1797, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin was born (“Biography of MWS,” 2009). Ten days after Mary’s birth, her mother died of placental infection.

Ever since the death of his wife

In “Insurmountable barriers to our union’: Homosocial male bonding, homosexual panic, and death on the ice in Frankenstein” James Holt McGavran makes a compelling argument about the nature of Frankenstein’s creature in Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein.” He argues that the creature represents his creators repressed sexuality and that Victor’s rejection of the creature stems from “homosexual panic.” The revulsion Victor feels is due to being faced with a physical manifestation of his sexuality and being
