    Of Mice and Men - Notes Steinbeck never names Curley’s wife. She is defined by her relationship to Curley‚ as his property‚ not as an individual. Namelessness also has the effect of reinforcing how insignificant she is in the life of the ranch‚ how dependant she is on Curley‚ for her identity and how little she is respected by all. In the book‚ Curley’s wife is shown to be a very mean‚ unfavourable‚ self-willed‚ troublesome‚ young and lonely girl with no one to comfort her‚ so she

    Despite the fact that they were held to higher expectations in regards to their duties around the house‚ as a mother as well and as a wife‚ the value of a wife is unequal to that of a husband; no matter how many of their duties outweigh those of their significant other.

    I want a wife Published in 1971‚ “I want a wife” written by Judy Brady illustrates successfully the role of women in marriage. Brady humorously mentions a wife’s duties which range from doing chores and tasks‚ such as laundry and cooking‚ to take care of the husband’s mental‚ physical‚ social‚ and sexual needs. The repetition of “I want a wife who will…” is used effectively to emphasis the husband’s selfishness. Brady is right when she lays out a list of what most women are expected do after

    • 2 Pages

    The Good Wife Guide The “Good Wife Guide” is an advisory text from the 1950’s telling typical 1950’s women on how to accomplish their role as a “good wife”.

This creates a rather stern and overpowering tone‚ connoting that women in the 1950’s were being ‘told’ what to do. Other parts of the text seem to suggest that women had no right to make any individual decisions and
