As this class goes on, it's getting harder for me to pick which era of English Lit. I like the most. I always thought it was the Romantic period, with all of its eccentric characters and amazing literary themes. After this week, though, I like what I see from Victorian Literature as well. I really like that, with this era, we get to see more of the voice of women, because this was around the same time that many got politically active in the women's rights movement of England (I think). We've now gone from seeing women as strictly inferior, to those that are almost equal to men with Tennyson. The works that we get to read in class are actually enjoyable to read, as opposed to really dry "college-ish" material that students usually get stuck with. I already read Mrs. Dalloway, and, although it was more challenging to follow along with, it was a great read. This class just keeps getting better.
