"The Yellow Wallpaper" is short story that was written by American writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman and it was published in 1982. The main purpose of this story was to expose the way that women were viewed and treated during the 19th century, especially when it came to mental and physical health issues. Written in the first person, the story is related in a series of journal entries, in which the main character, whose name we do not learn, tells of the circumstances that surround her when her husband, John decides to move them somehwere where he thinks his wife, the narrator, will be able to be cured from what he terms: temporary nervous depression. So they move to a mansion with Jennie, John´s sister, and settle into a room that had once been a nursery with yellow wallpaper that has been badly scratched. As time passes, the narrator focuses on the wallpaper more and more, until she begins seeing the form of a woman in there. In the end, John comes home one day and after unlocking the door to the room, finds his wife crouched against it, circling it and when she sees him she tells him that she has finally been able to break free despite him and Jane. John passes out and the narrator continues circling the walls without a care. In this excerpt of the story, the narrator is: B: she feels an overwhelming responsibility to meet society´s expectations, because, through the words she uses and the expression, the narrator shows how much shame she feels that her situation, her condition, prevents her from doing what socially she should be doing, which is becoming a support for her husband.

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Society and Class is one of the themes of Don Quixote.

Explanation:

There are many themes in the "Don Quixote" by "Miguel de Cervantes" like Social and class, madness, loyalty, race, madness, morality.

Cervantes's novel shows the difference between the class of a person and his worth. In Don Quixote, Cervantes argues the traditional thinking that if a person is an aristocrat, he is respectable and noble. But Duke and Duches are frivolous and unkind though they are aristocrats in the story. On the other hand, though Sancho has low social status and is a farmer, he is wise and thoughtful.  

In Don Quixote, two people who love each other are asked to live apart  apart because of their social class and Cervantes also suggests that quality of a person is more important than his social class.
