   Extractions: Best known for her short story "The Yellow Wall-Paper," Gilman was a woman who wrote thousands of works, from short journalism to book length discussions of the social realities of women's lives to poetry. Her book, Women and Economics was hailed as a major accomplishment and re-published in several languages; Vassar college even used it as a textbook for a short time. Gilman's major concern during her lifetime was feminism women's suffrage as well as women's economic independence. She also self-published a magazine titled, The Forerunner, for seven years; the magazine is an incredible collection of thought and ideas and an example of how driven she was. Gilman learned in 1932 that she had incurable breast cancer. As an advocate for the right-to-die, Gilman committed suicide on August 17, 1935 by taking an overdose of chloroform. She "chose chloroform over cancer" as her autobiography and suicide note stated. During her life, Gilman published a huge volume of work much of which is unavailable to the modern reader. However, much of her work is beginning to be recognized as important and re-published. (See the

Gilman refused to call herself a "feminist" - her goal as a humanist was to campaign for the cause of women's suffrage. Gilman saw that the domestic environment has become an institution which oppresses women. Her famous story, 'The Yellow Wallpaper' (1892), depicted a depressed woman who slowly descends into madness in her room while her well-meaning husband is often away due to his work at a hospital. "Personally, I disagree with their ideas.

   Extractions: To swallow and follow, whether old doctrine or new propaganda, is a weakness still dominating the human mind. A concept is stronger than a fact. The one predominant duty is to find one's work and do it. Audiences are always better pleased with a smart retort, some joke or epigram, than with any amount of reasoning.

   Extractions: The papers of Charlotte Perkins Gilman were deposited with the Schlesinger Library by her daughter, Katherine Beecher Stetson Chamberlin, in 1971 and 1972. Mrs. Gilman was born Charlotte Anna Perkins on July 3, 1860, in Hartford. Her mother, Mary Fitch Westcott, had married a second cousin, the well-known librarian and bibliophile, Frederic Beecher Perkins, grandson of Lyman Beecher, nephew of Henry Ward Beecher and Harriet Beecher Stowe. Gilman herself and others attributed her lifelong talent for speakingand especially preachingwith ease and power to her Beecher heritage. Her brother, Thomas Adie, was 14 months older; there were two siblings who died in infancy. Charlotte Perkins' first published work was the poem, "One Girl of Many," which appeared in The Alpha, probably in 1880; The Woman's Journal also published some of her verse in the 1880s (see oversize volume 70). In Pasadena, recovering from the mental turmoil of her married life and thrown on her own resources, she began to write and speak professionally, earning enough to keep herself and Katharine. In 1890 alone she wrote 33 articles and 23 poems, and she spoke to women's clubs, Nationalist groups, and others. Soon after attending a meeting of the Pacific Coast Women's Press Association (PCWPA) in San Francisco, she moved to Oakland, in the summer of 1891; during the next four years its monthly paper, The Bulletin, and editing itwith Helen Campbellunder the title The Impress form 1893 to 1895 (see folder 238, volumes 1o and 2o). Her mother came to live with her but died in March 1893 of cancer.

   Extractions: Charlotte Perkins Gillman (1860-1935) Contributing Editor: Elaine Hedges Students respond well to "The Yellow Wall-Paper." They like the story and don't have serious difficulty understanding it, and they enjoy discussing the meanings of the wallpaper. They may, however, oversimplify the story, reading the ending either as the heroine's victory over her circumstances, or her defeat. Have students choose and defend one or the other of these positions for a classroom debate (with the aim of showing that there is no easy resolution). Students might also want to debate (attack or defend) the role of the husband in the story. Background information on medical treatment of women, and specifically white, middle-class women, in the nineteenth century, especially Dr. S. Weir Mitchell's "rest cure" (mentioned in the headnote) is useful. Naive students sometimes wonder why the woman in the story can't just leave; they need to understand the situation of white, middle-class married women in the nineteenth century: The censure against divorce, and their limited opportunities in the paid labor force. "Turned," like "The Yellow Wall-Paper," deals with the situation of women inside marriage, but it offers a wife who takes matters into her own hands and recreates her life. The two stories can thus be profitably compared and contrasted. Significant differences, of course, include the greater freedom (she is childless) and professional training (she can support herself) of the wife, Mrs. Marroner, in "Turned."

    Extractions: Considered the leading intellectual in the woman's movement from the 1890s to 1920, Charlotte Perkins Gilman was widely known both in the United States and abroad for her incisive studies of woman's role and status in society. By the time of her death in 1935, all of her books were out of print, and in the intervening decades her ideas were largely forgotten. Since the 1970s her writings have been rediscovered—both the sociological analyses that made her popular in her own time, and her less widely known fiction, especially her short story "The Yellow Wall-Paper," regarded today as a classic of nineteenth-century literature. Establishing herself in California, Gilman began to write and lecture on suffrage and woman's rights, and on the social reforms advocated by the Nationalist clubs inspired by Edward Bellamy's Utopian novel Looking Backward (1888). In 1892 she published "The Yellow Wall-Paper." Based on her experience with Dr. Mitchell, it is an indictment of nineteenth-century medical attitudes toward women as well as a subtle analysis of the power politics of marriage. Rejected by the prestigious

Here, a woman is not allowed to do much of anything. Cannot write, draw, etc. too much of a strain on her mind. Must pretty much stay up in her room all day and "rest."
