Abstract
The paper discusses the impact of female authors in the nineteenth-century who used literature as a medium to incite changes in the unjust position of women in the society. The paper’s focus is on two women writers, Charlotte Brontë, whose novel Jane Eyre demonstrated the obstacles women had to overcome in order to gain independence and equality before entering marriage, and Kate Chopin, whose heroine in The Awakening experienced a shift in her attitude towards the role of a mother and a wife... More in a stereotypical Victorian marriage by rejecting the prescribed roles and freely expressing her sexuality. By taking a closer look at the public reception of the female authors in the nineteenth-century, as well as the common themes that Chopin and Brontë used to expose the narrow-mindedness of the patriarchal society and the lack of basic human rights to freedom in this period, the novels raise awareness to the oppression of women and help in the establishment of a path towards the long-awaited female independence and gender equality.
