  • Female's Inevitable Exclusion Through Sound And Language

  • Nature Of Female Passion
    2,247 words
    Is female passion dangerous, or is it a form of empowerment? Historians and critics often look upon the 18th Century as "The Age of Reason".

However, it is interesting to consider the issue of female passion in texts that do not so overtly deal with the topic and are more ambiguous in nature. Defoe's "Roxana" pr...
