WOMEN INTHE 19TH CENTURY

 

DID YOU KNOW THAT WOMEN COULDN'T WORK IN THE 19TH CENTURY BECAUSE IT WAS NOT ALLOWED.

TAKE THE CASE OF MARY ANN EVANS, THE ENGLISH WRITE. SHE WAS BORN IN 1819 BUT SHE COULD NEVER USED HER REAL NAME AND SHE WAS USING 'GEORGE ELIOTT'.

ONE OF MY FAVOURITE NOVELS IS 'MIDDLEMARCH', WHERE YOU CAN APPROACH TO LIFE AT THAT TIME, CRITICISING THE BEHAVIOUR OF THE UPPER CLASSES.

WE ARE IMPROVING THE SITUATION NOWADAYS, FORTUNATELY.. .. ALTHOUGH NOT LONG AGO, FOR OUR SURPRISE A GROUP OF 3 MEN WERE USING THE NAME OF A WOMAN BECAUSE, THEY PROBABLY THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO SELL THE NOVEL BETTER.
