Victorian literature was composed from roughly 1830-1900 under the reign of Queen Victoria of England. It is most often characterized by the hypocrisy of the social stratosphere and the precedence of good over evil. Victorian author Oscar Wilde, however, challenged the bounds of typical Victorian literature and ultimately “opened the door for the development of modernism” (Gutierrez-Folch). Two of his works, The Importance of Being Earnest and An Ideal Husband, portray Wilde’s ideas and…
Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl; Analysis. Slavery thrived in America, especially the south in the 19th Century.

From a historical perspective, both Joseph Heller and Ian McEwan criticise the nature of war through Catch-22 and Atonement respectively.

officially published in October of 1847 under her pen name “Currer Bell” (“Jane Eyre is published”).

By publishing under a pseudonym, she saved herself from verbal attacks concerning her femininity. She was bold by publishing her work.

Weinstein & Foard, 2006, p.85). When reporting the research results, “names of participants are fictitious” (Kinsella & Singleton, 2014, p.448). Whist participants might experience “a sense of a loss of ownership of the data” (Iphofen, 2009, p.100), pseudonyms (fake names) instead of real names are used to protect the privacy of the research subjects (Esterberg, 2002). However, for those three native-like participants (Kenneth; Cassie; Siobhan), personal details concerning their family,…

From serving in the army, to his final duel with Aaron Burr, Hamilton committed his life to the cause of patriotism.

Two Horrific Events Based on Lies The Salem Witch Trials ended with about 200 people being accused of “witchcraft”, and during the Red Scare, over a thousand people were accused of being part of the communist party.
