Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s The Yellow Wallpaper tackles the status of nineteenth-century women within the society. Charlotte mirrors her feelings of fragmentation and rebellion against her confinement and submission to laws established by patriarchal society and portrays in this short story that the woman, in an attempt to escape her confinement, may flee into madness. This use of madness appears to transform the negative construct of female insanity into necessary affirmation of the female self, breaking the shackles of isolation and oppression that enslaved her. In my dissertation, I want to show how the protagonist tries to break free from the bonds of male medical profession and by large patriarchal dominance, which subject her to harsh treatment known as the rest cure that denies her the freedom to engage in intellectual activities. Gilman had hoped to create an awareness of the medical conventions imposed on women and to highlight the social injustice that many American women were subjected to during the nineteenth-century.
