She felt that females back then should have the same rights as women have achieved through the Civil Rights Movement today. Her answer to this was "A Religious Retirement." It is Mary Astell's ideal place to end her intellectual suffering and open new doors for the female mind. I feel that Mary went a little to far with this idea. She wanted to segregate males and females, live in a convent, and find alternates to marriage for women, which, I guess, would be the same as living in a convent. Mary was a feminist which I fee ....


Frankenstein: What Makes It A Gothic Novel?
700 Words - 3 Pages

.... atmosphere of the novel and can also cause or hinder the actions of Frankenstein and his monster as they go on their seemingly endless chase where the pursuer becomes the pursued. Darkly dramatic moments and the ever-so-small flashes of happiness stand out. The setting sets the atmosphere and creates the mood. The “ dreary night of November” (Shelly 42) where the monster is given life, remains in the memory. And that is what is felt throughout the novel-the dreariness of it all along with the desolate isolation. Yet there were still glimpses of happiness in Shelly's “vivid pictures of the grand scenes among Frankenstein- the thunderstorm of the Alps, the valleys o ....

The Witches In Macbeth
1727 Words - 7 Pages

.... Snider means is that the witches foreshadow the play, but also through that the build up the greed to have Macbeth cause what they foreshadow. This supports my thesis. Since Macbeth knows he is going to become king, he thinks why should he not become king now, instead of having to wait. Hazlitt stated that the reason for all of Macbeth s crimes were the witches, who surprised him, and he was impatient to verify their predictions, causing Duncan s murder (Hazlitt 11).
