Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Applied Geography, grade: sehr gut, University of Innsbruck (Translationswissenschaften), language: English, abstract: The Female Eunuch, Germaine Greer (1970)Germaine Greer was born in 1939 in Melbourne, but spent most of her life inEngland. She is a writer, broadcaster and professor of English andcomparative studies.The main themes of her literary activity are art and literature, abortion andinfertility and she was one of the most important supporters of the women'smovement and was an engaged representative of feminism.With "The Female Eunuch" "she broke taboos and changed the lives of awhole generation of women..."1.Her book is a statement against establishment and she fights the stereotypicalideal of the "Feminine". Besides this she writes about men's hatred of womenand how man "waylays women for the sake of finding sexual release" p. 268.Germaine Greer shocked the public by describing her experiences of lesbiansex, rape, abortion, infertility, failed marriage and menopause.She writes about marriage "Experience is too costly a teacher: we cannot allmarry in order to investigate the situation. The older sisters must teach uswhat they found out"2And about single women she writes "They dawdle and dream in their dead-end jobs, overtly miserable, because they are publicly considered to be."
