I am doing my dissertation on how women are portrayed as deviant if they do not follow the guidelines society has laid for them. This would include women always being labelled badv in religion because of Adam and Eve. In academic texts such as Pollak, Lombroso etc. In films I have alot of examples eg, Thelma and Loiuse, Butterfields 8, Waterloo Bridge, Fatal Attraction- Bad women dying at the end.
Does anyone know any plays by classic writers which stereotype women as gossips, bad etc? Any modern books?
Any films?
