"What Women See When They See Hillary" - Article Critique
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. America's unprecedented political maneuver of having a woman run for the nation's highest office is a clear indication of just how far the United States has come with regard to social and political progress. Hillary Clinton has indeed created a legacy for feminists and naysayers alike merely by having her name placed on the ballot. This is not to say, however, that just because a female candidate has finally made it into the United States history books that she is necessarily the right person for the job. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

'Moll Flanders,' 'History Of Misella' And 'The Rambler': How The Role Of Women Shaped 18th Century London Society
[ send me this paper ]
14 pages in length. There has rarely been a time in the history of mankind that women have not had to struggle in order to assert their worth as a gender. From the time when males first declared patriarchal authority over their female counterparts, women have fought – in various ways and with various results – to be treated both equitably and respectfully. Literature has long reflected this perpetual struggle between the genders, most often taking the side that support patriarchal control; however, a slow but steady change began occurring in eighteenth century London society that helped nurture a growing metamorphosis, which included Samuel Johnson 'Rambler' (Misella), Daniel Defoe's 'Moll Flanders' and Frances Burney's 'Evelina: Or, the History of a Young Lady's Entrance into the World.' Bibliography lists 11 sources.
