Abstract:
I have prepared this dissertation in partial requirement for the degree of M.A in English. I decided to work on this topic because an investigation about the gradual development of the theme of the female emancipation in two societies divided by norms, values and time appeared stimulating to me. The idea actually crosses into my mind when I took courses on English fiction in the 19th and 20th century. The purpose of this study is to find out if there has really been change in the status of women over a long period of time.
Description:
