255 Words2 Pages
Women in this time period were meant to stay at home and take care of their families. Before they were married they were meant to stay home, listen to their fathers or the male figure in their lives and educate themselves on everything they may need to know. In Memoirs of the Modern Philosopher by Elizabeth Hamilton there are three heroines, only one of which is the “ideal” women of the time. Harriet was the type of women that stayed home and did everything she was told to do. This was the type of woman that many people expected in this time period since women were not meant to have opinions and they were not meant to work because their lives were meant to be controlled by the men in their lives since the men knew what was best for everyone.
