    In her formative article, Golden Age of Separate Spheres?, Amanda Vickery discusses at length the issues with the separate spheres dichotomy and how it has potentially stunted the discussions within women’s history. The majority of her essay concerns the historiography of women’s history and how, in many ways, using the framework of separate spheres allowed the field to develop and thrive. However, one of her chief criticisms is the way this model is often oversimplified. Vickery states that “in itself” the separate spheres model is not “proof that the majority of women in comfortable households had no engagement with the world outside their front door” and I feel this is particularly relevant to aristocratic women. Within their historiography, there are only a few works focused on singular, prevalent aristocratic women, chiefly the Duchess of Devonshire and Mary Derby, who, unlike many of their sisters, conducted their politics more publicly. The other books and articles on this subject are more general histories of aristocratic women, which are by no means less valid or important, but it makes the juxtaposition between the histories of middle-class and working class women and the histories of aristocratic women all the more obvious. Again, to return to the feminist narrative of women’s history, the separate spheres framework makes it hard to fit political aristocratic women into the already established designs of the field, and it is because of separate spheres that it is easy to dismiss them. Unlike middle-class and working class women of these periods, who battled against the oppressive regiment of the separate spheres model, aristocratic women were content with their position in society and did very little to challenge it. They benefitted from the institution of patriarchy immensely; they had wealth and comfort, had a freer rein on their interests and opinions, benefitted from more…

    Renaissance Women In France

    • 3711 Words
    • 15 Pages

    #During the era of feudalism it is argued that the power of Renaissance women was curtailed significantly through the development of a more centralized government rather than the decentralized socio political structure which had existed. It is often suggested that this centralized power was entirely male dominated. It is true to say that certain institutions existed such as the church and state which were obstacles for women in their quest for power and independence. Though these institutions stood in their way they still remained highly influential in political life particularly in France. This influence was usually on an informal, indirect basis.…

    Honor In Old Regime

    • 353 Words
    • 2 Pages

    This excerpt highlights how aristocratic privilege trumped concepts of ‘honor’ in Old Regime France and exasperated class tensions over aristocratic privilege. According to Loyseau, in early modern France, the social hierarchy of the three Estates was “. . . willingly observed through honor, and certainly they are more honorable when they come from a voluntary respect . . .” (Loyseau 17). Without the observance of honor and rank, Loyseau claimed “there would only be confusion among us.” (Loyseau 17). Consequently, the chevalier in the case, a noble, should never have pursued Noailles, the daughter of a merchant. Although Noailles resisted the chevalier’s advances because of the difference in their ranks, the chevalier continued to pursue her, leading to her kidnapping and, to protect her honor in the aftermath of the kidnapping, their…

    Montresor

    • 659 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The character Montresor in “The Cask of Amontillado” by Edgar Allen Poe is a character for a close psychoanalytic approach and study. This short story is teeming with the need to be analyzed from a psychoanalytic viewpoint. The very first line when Montresor states, “The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could; but when he ventured upon insult, I vowed revenge.” (Poe 160), clearly indicates that the protagonist of the story will not be a stable character. When the character says, “I must not only punish, but punish with impunity.” (160), the reader is clear on the tone of the story and may realize that Montresor is not sane. Montresor is about to act on his plot of revenge and lures Fortunato away from a celebration under…

    "I am as happy nowhere else and in no other society, and all my wishes end, where I hope my days will end, at Monticello," wrote Thomas Jefferson the great architect of his home, Monticello. His home of 54 years was named Monticello which means "little mountain" in Italian. Many still question the reasoning for the name "Monticello." The only reasoning that was come up with was that Jefferson wanted to build his home on his mountain located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia near Charlottesville. He wanted a place that was private and away from civilization and the commotion of politics.…

    here are clubs for ladies, for gentlemen, the gentry and the socially sedentary. Clubs where handshakes, back-slaps and ridiculous blazers maintain a cosy elitism. The Millionaires’ Club is not one of these clubs. Here we favour meritocracy over cronyism – if a spirits or liqueur brand sells a million 9-litre cases it’s in, if it doesn’t, it’s out. This year the revolving door has welcomed more brands than it has ejected, with membership now numbering 181. We have a slew of novice Millionaires – affirmation to burgeoning brands that if you get the proposition and market right, the million-case mark is eminently achievable. Of the newcomers to Millionaire status there’s La Martiniquaise’s Poliakov vodka, which inched its way past the million-case mark, presumably in the very last knockings of 2011. Then you have Cîroc which, through P Diddy’s notoriety and Diageo’s know-how, managed to pole-vault nearly 50 of its competitors to debut at 133. The global analysts at Euromonitor International have also unearthed some new names. There are those that have quietly amassed sales but been shy up to now about opening their ledgers. For those maintaining a non-declaration policy, the arrival of the Philippines’ Emperador to the list should dispense with the need for rhetoric. The brand debuted at number four in the list and simultaneously announced itself to the drinks world as the number-one selling brandy. Glenfiddich’s advancement is also worth a column inch. The Speyside malt is somewhat of an avant-garde figure among the 100 or so scotch distilleries that, up to now, might have resigned to thinking their place in life was in the narrow, not broad market. With the likes of The Glenlivet poised a few hundred thousand cases short of a million, Glenfiddich may be the pioneer, but it won’t be the single single malt in the list for…
