I will soon start posting on my books. I had a late start due to summer reading and I had to buy all of my books and shipping took a few days...

List of Books

Question:
How has early feminism influence itself from the 19th century to 21st century?




List of Books:

To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf
This book caught my attention when I was browsing through Amazon. What really sold it for me is that I read in someone’s review that the book was written in a stream of consciousness style which right now appeals to me a lot.


A Room of One’s Own by Virginia Woolf
This book would be a great connector piece when I’m trying to synthesize some of the other books with my question. The question, I believe needs to be revised. But I am just fascinated at this moment with Virginia Woolf.

Woman Destroyed by Simone de Beauvoir
I’ve always wanted to read some of Beauvoir’s work. This project will help me to really dissect what she is saying since I’ve heard she is a tough one to read.

The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan
This book will hopefully give me some insight into feminism’s history. How it began and where we stand right now.

Invitation to the Waltz by Rosamond Lehmann
I couldn’t refuse a Ms. Clapp’s recommendation. Besides that, the plot seems very interesting and I could definitely use this piece in my project.

At last:

Vindication of the Rights of Women by Mary Wollstonecraft
I cannot write about feminism without mentioning one of its first feminists.

Looks like I need to get cracking soon...First book on my nightstand is Invitation to the Waltz

Testing...

Hey everyone! So, I'm still trying to catch up with everything. As of right now, I am working hard on perfecting my project question. But here's a preview:

What is the difference between early feminist writers and contemporary ones such as Maya Angelou?

I still need some help concerning my question...Any feedback would be great.
