Repression in The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

The yellow(a) Wallpaper  Repression   The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Gilman is sad story of the repression that women vitrine in the years of late 1800s as well as existence representative of the turmoils that women face today. Gilman writes The Yellow Wallpaper from her own personal experiences of having to face the arouse point that this is a male dominated society and just abouttimes women suffer because of it. The narrator, being female, is suffering from a temporary depression. She states right from the beginning that fanny is a physician, and perhaps--(I would not say it to a living soul, of course, but this is late(prenominal) paper and a great relief to my mind)-- perhaps that is the one condition I do not get well faster. The narrator sets up the story to convey a certain opinion of the repercussions a cleaning woman faces in the care of a man. She obviously loves her husband and trusts him but has some underlying feeling that maybe his pre scription of total bed relief is not working for her. The story mentions that she has an older brother who is also a physician and concurs with her husbands theory, thus leaving her no choice but to case herself to this torment of being totally alone in this room with the yellow wallpaper. She stares at this wallpaper for hours on end and thinks she sees a woman shadow the paper. I didnt realize for a long time what the thing was that showed behind, that tiresome sub-pattern, but now I am quite sure it is a woman. She becomes obsessed with discovering what is behind that pattern and what it is doing. I dont want to leave now until I vex found it out. The narrator with absolutely aught else to do is reduced to staring ... ... indeed imprison the woman because you have no way of knowing what has happened before or what is to come. We imprison her to a greater extent because we make judgments of a thirty second clip that could possibly call for our bias for the m ovie or the story itself before we have a chance as an individual to read the story or notice the movie. As a female in 1995 reading this story, I had this overwhelming desire to free this narrator from her husband and the rest of the males in her life. She cherished company, activity and stimulation. Which any woman of that time or this time should be freely allowed to have. Gilman did an outstanding job of illustrating the position that women of that time, and to an extent, of this time as well, nurture in their society. This story should hold a place in any womans heart who is struggling to find her place.
