Immediately after his creation comes to life, Frankenstein abandons his creation due to pure disgust of its appearance. In a time of loneliness and rejection, the
In society, women are stressed on the role of motherhood, being a “happy” mother, and providing their every moment toward not only their children, but their husbands needs on both ends. Kate Chopin changes the view of the woman role figure, in the 19th century, that not all women are the same.

CONRAD’S PERSPECTIVE OF WOMEN IN “HEART OF DARKNESS” Joseph Conrad is always accused for not treating his female characters seriously. They remain like an undeveloped fetus in contrast to the powerful male characters that we see in “Heart of Darkness”.
