Heroes in History 
The Little Book of Notable Women Writers (An Encyclopedia of World’s Most Inspiring Women Book 4) 

Literature has always been viewed to be the arena of men. Man’s presence in the literary community had effectively subjugated women. When we talk about literature, names such as William Shakespeare, Ernest Hemingway, and Mark Twain consistently appear. More often than not, when we hear answers such as Jane Austen or Virginia Woolf. When you search “famous authors, ” eight out of ten authors in the main field are men. This has always been the case in any of the sciences and arts. Authorship has never been associated with women’s roles, only motherhood, marriage, and home-making.

 

But women’s innate ability for survival persists even in the midst of severe sexism and discrimination. There are women who defied all odds and proceeded to write their experiences and imagination. Despite the criticisms and the adverse consequences of voicing out, women in the past were never silenced. And their efforts paid off – we now see women authors getting more popular than male writers. We now witness a changing world where the words of women finally carry weight.
