The Heidi Chronicles As Illustration of the Second Feminist Wave in the United States
Facultad de Humanidades Sección de Filología The Heidi Chronicles as Illustration of the Second Feminist Wave in the United States Trabajo de Fin de Grado presentado por la alumna Beatriz Sánchez Ramos bajo la supervisión de la Dra. Matilde Martín González Dpto. Filología Inglesa y Alemana Grado en Estudios Ingleses Curso 2014-15 Convocatoria de julio de 2015 TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract 1. Introduction 2. Second Feminist Wave: A Brief Account 3. The Heidi Chronicles seen from the perspective of Second Wave Feminist Theory 4. Conclusion 5. Works Cited Abstract This final degree dissertation aims to show how vital was the Second Wave Feminism in the twentieth century in terms of women’s struggle for better conditions. This period of intense fight has been the object of many literary and critical works, such as novels, collections of poetry and scholarly articles. From the huge bibliography on this topic I have chosen to focus on The Heidi Chronicles, a play written by Wendy Wasserstein (1950-2006) which reflects and engages with the main concerns raised by women in the period covering the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Thus, I argue that this text could very well illustrate the political, social and theoretical aspects developed within the Second Feminist Wave in the United States. A further reason for choosing this work has to do with the possibilities of theatre as a cultural manifestation to deal with questions that include gender relations and social themes. The theatre has always implied an interaction between characters in a literal way, and this turns it perhaps into the most straightforward genre to involve the public – the audience – or the readership. -
