    Extractions: Re-Creating 44). For the degree to which works are penned by women, the manner in which these texts are critically received, and the roles women occupy within the general body of African literature, are all reflective of societal attitudes toward women. Unfortunately, the African literary canon is characterized by the inadequate representation of female-authored works. Moreover, the literature it is inclusive of, often perpetuates the gender myths that are typically projected onto African societies via the Western gaze. In many instances, African women writers are marginalized by their male counterparts, and their works either remain unacknowledged or tokenized by literary critics. Male Daughters, Female Husbands - argues: The History of the Education of Ghana from the Earliest Times to the Declaration of Independence , suggests that the apprehension of parents may have been a significant deterrent to the enrollment of female students. Because the types of employment formal education ensured was solely offered to boys, parents were reluctant to send their daughters to school- a decision that would intensify the familial workload without guarantee of any future employment. Nevertheless, the correlation between decreases in female registration and increasing levels of study suggests that social factors regarding gender resulted in the limited access and lowered prioritization of academia for women.

In classic accounts, women are mentioned only occasionally, for example to highlight the crisis that traditional family relationships undergo Forebears: Women Immigrants and the Chicago School of Sociology. The fact that Handlin, and others paid scant attention to women is remarkable because women immigrants had actually been the subject of a rather lively scholarship during the early 20th century. Jane Addams and Lillian Wald, for example, were not only both founders of settlement houses in the United States, they were also prolific writers whose publications paid much attention to the women immigrants under their care Greenwich Village

    Extractions: LITR 5535 American Romanticism UHCL, summer 2002 Student Research Journal Jennifer Thurik LITR 5535 Research Journal Women in Romantic Literature When I look at literature, I am always fascinated by the roles that women play within the structure of the literature. I believed when I began this course that women would be desired objects that men could dominate over. Although in some cases I did recognize that, I was also able to see women in control of their destinies. For Bradstreet, she plays the devoted wife who dearly misses her husband and loves her children, but she is constantly at odds with herself for desiring something more than the tradition in which she grew. In Out of the Past , the femme fatale is very much in control of her destiny and will do anything to ensure her survival. Poe’s women are traditionally passive characters who are acted upon instead of being active participants. They are objects of desire for men and are easily dismissed when no longer needed. Faulkner’s Emily is very much in control of what is happening within her environment. Female characters in Romantic Literature are used very diversely.
