I second the recommendation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. If you don't have access to the book, you can view it free online at

"I have every reason in the world to think ill of you. No motive can excuse the unjust and ungenerous part you acted there. You dare not, you cannot deny, that you have been the principal, if not the only means of dividing them from each other--of exposing one to the censure of the world for caprice and instability, and the other to its derision for disappointed hopes, and involving them both in misery of the acutest kind."
[Elizabeth] paused, and saw with no slight indignation that he was listening with an air which proved him wholly unmoved by any feeling of remorse. He even looked at her with a smile of affected incredulity.
"Can you deny that you have done it?" she repeated.

By the way, the film versions of Pride and Prejudice are terrific and a character in the movie "You Got Mail" refers to the novel (which is symbolic since the characters in it are loosely based on Elizabeth and Darcy).

'The Yellow Wallpaper' - it's a very short story anyway. Is a married woman's perspective on oppression at that historical period. Her husband doesn't really realise that his treatment of her is sending her insane. It doesn't have many overt arguments between the characters but the theme does underline much of the book (e.g. he 'persuades' her to shut herself indoors and lie about in bed all day, 'resting'). I'm not sure exactly what type of conflict you're wanting, but this book deals with conflict based on gender expectations.

Are you meaning fiction when you say texts? If so, there are loads of them: GONE WITH THE WIND is one that comes to mind.
