A 5 page essay that discusses what Austen has to say about single women in British society. All of the accounts of single women in the novel point to the fact that that women, at this time in British history, had no real political or civil power of their own. Given this fact – that a female's position in society was entirely defined by her male associations – it is, therefore, understandable that all of the attentions of the single women in the novel are directed toward possible marriages between eligible females and likely males. The young women are concerned with finding mates, and the older single women, the widows, are, likewise, preoccupied with possible pairings. No additional sources cited.

5 pages in length. Robert Graves' extreme humanitarianism and devotion to the written word is significantly apparent within the literary boundaries of Goodbye To All That, a classic autobiography that records both the end of his own innocence and the decline of the chivalrous code of his class in post-war England. Not only does the reader assume the fact that the author is wholly attentive to his craft, but he also is privy to the notion that Graves only writes about things that are close to his heart. Expounding upon his experiences during World War I, Graves interweaves elements of a personal and political nature as a means by which to illustrate the atrocities of war. Chapter 18, which establishes the major points between World War 1 and the relationship to European Society, allows the reader to gain a significantly better understanding of what Graves' account sets out to convey. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

How does one account for this phenomenon?
