here is the topic i chose and the proposal and references for the topic I want u to write a research about that topic i chose

Topic:

The Female writers in the 17th and 18th century

Thesis:

The female writers in the 17th and 18th century were challenged with expressing themselves in a patriarchal system and had to fight very hard against the injustice in the society.

Factual details about the thesis:

Aphra Behn was credited with being the first woman writer to earn a living by her pen around 1660.

Fanny Burney a famous writer had to overcome family disapproval in order to make a name among literature circles in the 18th century.

The women found creative outlet in private journal writing in like the captivity narrative of Mary Rowlandson which was published in 1682.

The purpose of the paper:

The purpose of the paper is to analyze the works and lives of the women writers in the 17th and the 18th century. The inspiration for their writings and the personal , social turmoil being undergone by them. The writings played a major role in helping in woman emancipation and also helped the women in fighting the injustice that was prevalent in the society.

Plan for conducting the research:

The research would be conducted by using credible scholarly resources and Britannica Encyclopaedia will be relied upon for facts and for various perspectives. For instance, Rexroth Kenneth writes an article titled Literature about the role literature played in the society. Apart from this some articles from scholarly journals can also be relied upon. The analysis would be done based on the evidence from various scholarly references. The article by Richter, N.L. ,titled, ”Female Writers in the 18th Century: The Power of Imagination” will play a massive role in research. There are some books as well which dwell on the same issue like the one titled, ‘Surpassing the love of men’ by Lillian Faderman which can be very helpful in research. Another one is a Description of Millenium Hall, and the Country Adjacent: Together with the Characters of the Inhabitants, and Such Historical Anecdotes and Reflections, as May Excite in the Reader Proper Sentiments of Humanity, and Lead the Mind to the Love of Virtue. By a Gentleman on His Travels. London: Printed for J. Newbery, 1762. First edition.

Reason for choosing the topic and what i want to learn:

The reason for choosing the topic is to understand the struggle that women were starting at that time. The issues that they were facing and how literature helped them vent their feelings, achieve liberation and also reach a very wide audience. I want to learn to learn more about the literature, culture, society and status of women in the 17th and 18th century.
