How do you think women are presented in Literature? [authors/characters]

Over Literary History great progress has been made within the role of women in terms of Literature, Charlotte Bronte is now a celebrated author rather than a woman hiding behond a male sudonym, feminist criticism is now widely accepted as a general analysis and is not sensationalised nearly as much [arguably].

I am writing a project with the title 'How the presentation of women in literature has changed over significant periods in literary history' and I would really like to gage some opinions?

Thank you!

The same as they presented in films,TV and in reality. No changes there I am afraid.
What you read is what you get and so the answer is amonsgt you and the women you meet on a daily basis.
They do say things are never that far away from what you think.

It's a very broad topic. How are you going to structure it?
