關於作者
Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935) was an eminent American writer, feminist, and social reformer, whose literary contributions have been extensively influential in both literature and sociology. Gilman is perhaps best known for her short story 'The Yellow Wallpaper' (1892), which has become a seminal piece in feminist literature, exploring themes of mental health and the oppressive effects of the patriarchal society on women. Her body of work includes poetry, novels, and non-fiction, with a particular focus on gender equality, economics, and social reform, all grounded in her belief in the progressive evolution of human society. 'Women and Economics' (1898) remains a foundational feminist text, advocating for economic independence for women. Through her famous work, 'The Collected Works of Charlotte Perkins Gilman', readers encounter a broad spectrum of her intellectual contributions. Gilman's literary style is characterized by its clear prose, incisive social critique, and often utopian visionary ideas, aimed at the liberation and empowerment of women. Her influence extended beyond her literature into her lectures and activist work, solidifying her as a pioneering figure in the early feminist movement. Gilman's life and works continue to be studied and celebrated for their bold engagement with issues of gender equality and their impact on subsequent generations of writers and scholars.
