Description
Abstract: The spousal abuse is a form of abusive and aggressive actions that woman encounters in her close relationship with her male partner who attempts to uphold control and power over his spouse. This subject has increased widely nowadays and it needs to be investigated through the lens of literature in order to give a voice for the voiceless wives who endure the bad temper and abuse of their spouses. It will be studied in The Wrongs of Woman which is considered as a feminist novel and one of the best 18th century novels. Wollstonecraft’s philosophical and gothic tale tells the story of Her husband has committed her to an insane asylum. It critiques the oppressive sacredness of getting married in eighteenth-century Britain, and also the judicial framework that upholds it, according to Wollstonecraft., and focuses on society rather than individual female wrongdoings. The purpose of this dissertation is to utilize a thematic method to evaluate the theme of spousal abuse of women in the novel, and to investigate the impact and consequences on the main female characters. Her novel , was designed to be read and appreciated as both profoundly restorative and historical important in terms of what that exposes concerning patriarchal and patriarchal systems’ effects on women’s lives.
