Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She has just given birth to their child. He labels her postpartum depression as »hysteria.« He rents the attic in an old country house. Here, she is to rest alone – forbidden to leave her room. Instead of improving, she starts hallucinating, imagining herself crawling with other women behind the room's yellow wallpaper. And secretly, she records her experiences. The Yellow Wall-Paper [1892] is the short but intense, Gothic horror story, written as a diary, about a woman in an attic – imprisoned in her gender; by the story. Charlotte Perkins Gilman's feminist novella was long overlooked in American literary history. Nowadays, it is counted among the classics. CHARLOTTE PERKINS GILMAN (1860–1935), born in Hartford, Connecticut, was an American feminist theorist, sociologist, novelist, short story writer, poet, and playwright. Her writings are precursors to many later feminist theories. With her radical life attitude, Perkins Gilman has been an inspiration for many generations of feminists in the USA. Her most famous work is the short story The Yellow Wall-Paper [1892], written when she suffered from postpartum psychosis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Sherlock Holmes she is always the woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name. In his eyes she eclipses and predominates the whole of her sex. It was not that he felt any emotion akin to love for Irene Adler. All emotions, and that one particularly, were abhorrent to his cold, precise but admirably balanced mind. He was, I take it, the most perfect reasoning and observing machine that the world has seen, but as a lover he would have placed himself in a false position. He never spoke of the softer passions, save with a gibe and a sneer. They were admirable things for the observer--excellent for drawing the veil from men's motives and actions. But for the trained reasoner to admit such intrusions into his own delicate and finely adjusted temperament was to introduce a distracting factor which might throw a doubt upon all his mental results. Grit in a sensitive instrument, or a crack in one of his own high-power lenses, would not be more disturbing than a strong emotion in a nature such as his. And yet there was but one woman to him, and that woman was the late Irene Adler, of dubious and questionable memory.

Book excerpt: Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-The books about the adventures of the detective and his assistant, Dr. Watson, remain very popular even 130 years after their release. In the end, it seems that the relationship of the author and his character was not simple at all.The future writer was born in a dysfunctional family (although respected): his father was an alcoholic, so he quickly spent his fortune on that vice. When Arthur was 9, wealthy relatives felt sorry for him and took him to a Jesuit boarding school, and then allowed him to continue his studies at the University of Edinburgh School of Medicine. Arthur was not the most diligent student, since his main passion was literature. The young man even published a couple of short novels in the magazine of this institution.In 1881, the young man received a degree in medicine and opened a private practice. However, the patients did not line up outside their door to be treated by such a young doctor, because there were hundreds of people like him. And, when there are no people to deal with, there is no money.Arthur dedicated himself to that job he didn't like for 5 years. During this time he managed to get married, he wrote a novel and many short stories, but these did not bring him fame.In 1886, in just three weeks, Arthur Conan Doyle wrote a novel called Study in Scarlet. In it, the protagonists,
