Discuss the significance of the struggle for financial independence and equality on the place of women in academia or any other profession, either historical or contemporary.
2) “It would be a thousand pities if women wrote like men […] considering the vastness and variety of the world, how should we manage with one [sex] only?”
Using at least two examples, discuss the impact and value of the voices of women and/or gender non-conforming individuals to the literary world.
