This final exam essay should be 2-3 pages long. You do not need to quote or include works cited page, but you may do so if you wish. Prompt: Feminists and scholars have analyzed literature by both men and women in an effort to understand literary representations of women, as well as the writers and cultures that create them. Consider Goethe’s character, Charlotte, and Shelley’s character, Elizabeth from the book “Goethe – Sorrows of Young Werther (Dover Thrift edition)”. Please comment on these two “literary representations of women.”
How real do these women seem? What do they have in common? How are they different? What do we learn about Victor and Werther through their romantic relationships with these women? Create your own thesis and write a standard essay.
