Charlotte Perkins Gilman

    3 juli 1860 – 17 augustus 1935

    Charlotte Perkins Gilman was een vooraanstaande Amerikaanse sociologe en schrijfster, bekend om haar romans, korte verhalen, poëzie en non-fictie. Als utopisch feministe dienden haar onorthodoxe concepten en levensstijl als rolmodel voor toekomstige generaties. Haar werk onderzocht vaak thema's van sociale hervorming en bekritiseerde hedendaagse maatschappelijke normen, waarmee ze een belangrijke stempel drukte op de sociologische en literaire discussie.

    • Die gelbe Tapete & Herland - Zwei feministische Klassiker in einem Band

      Sozialkritik als Gothic Novel und ein utopischer Roman gegen Diskriminierung

      Charlotte Perkins Gilmans einflussreichste Werke in einem Band: Mit der feministischen Horrorerzählung »Die gelbe Tapete« gelang ihr 1892 der Durchbruch. Eine junge Frau wird nach der Geburt ihres Kindes zu strikter Schonung verdammt, im Bett einer Dachkammer mit vergitterten Fenstern soll sie sich erholen, von ihrem Ehemann und dem Arzt streng überwacht. Doch die Muster der Wandtapete führen ein unheilvolles Eigenleben ... In Gilmans utopischem Roman »Herland« brechen drei abenteuerlustige Männer auf zu einem geheimnisvollen »Frauenland«; die Realität der friedlichen Frauengesellschaft wird das Welt- und vor allem Frauenbild der drei für immer verändern. Als erste klassisch feministische Utopie ist »Herland« in die Literaturgeschichte eingegangen. Endlich eine deutsche Ausgabe mit beiden Schlüsseltexten der großen amerikanischen Frauenrechtlerin Aufrüttelnd, fesselnd und schnell gelesen: zwei feministische Klassiker der Weltliteratur Für Leser*innen von Edgar Allen Poe und Virginia Woolf
