English Prof Explains Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper" in 2 Ways Analysis

In this video, Dr. Whitney Kosters provides brief context on The Cult of True Womanhood, medical treatment of women in the nineteenth century, and Dr. Weir Mitchell’s rest cure in order to explain “The Yellow Wallpaper” from a feminist lens. In addition, a psychoanalytic interpretation is offered. Highlights of the video include the nature of John and the narrator’s marriage, the room in which the narrator is kept, the ever-changing state of the narrator’s mental health, identity, and how gender ideologies were designed as a form of control. #charlotteperkinsgilman #gilman #feminism #subtitles #subtitle #shortstory #americanliterature #theyellowwallpaper #mentalinstitution #lecture #psychoanalysis #yellow #wallpaper #thecultofdomesticity #thecultoftruewomanhood #truewoman #gendercodes #narrator #insanity #restcure #weirmitchell #whyiwrotetheyellowwallpaper #education #analysis #educate #interpretation #marriage #drweirmitchess
