The Thinking Woman A Theoretical Perspective of 19th Century Women Novelists and Their Impact

In literature, all superior readers are quite familiar with the bronze sculpture called The Thinker Le Penseur by Auguste Rodin that shows a male figure sitting on a rock with his chin resting on one hand as though deep in thought and this image has loomed large as a myth, as an image, a symbol and an emblem suggestive of the immeasurable capacities of man. Similarly, a premise is being suggested here that with the advent of the 19th century writers a new age dawned in the domain of world literature and resulted in the birth of The Thinking Woman which obviously was consequent to a number of factors that traversed various disciplines and movements in thought.
