Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: bestanden, University of Leipzig (Institut für Amerikanistik), course: The 19th century in American female fiction, language: English, abstract: enforcements and become an independent human being. In which way she tries to "free"herself from the entrapment called marriage, which developments her way to her personalliberty goes through and if she eventually succeeds will be discussed in this term paper.In the first part of this term paper, I want to report briefly about the second half of thenineteenth century in America and the role of women, especially female writers. Afterwardthere will be a short look at the author's vita, because the way Wharton lived tells us muchabout her understanding of different themes. Then I want to analyze Wharton's short story'Souls Belated' which contains a lot of themes and symbols, from which the most interestingwill be described and interpreted. In a final conclusion I will try find an answer to theessential topic of Wharton's story: Does the protagonist succeed in escaping the socialconventions due to her divorce or does she fail? And is it possible at all to "free" oneself ofthe social imprisonment of the time described, particularly as a woman?This term paper focuses on the thesis, that 'Souls Belated' is mirroring the social conditionsof Edith Wharton's 19th century New York Society and the institution of marriage as a kind ofcage for women.
