The Rest cure that Dr. Weir Mitchell prescribed, which is mentioned in Gilman’s work, reflects men’s disparaging attitudes. His Rest cure calls for complete rest, coerced feeding and isolation. Mitchell, a neurosurgeon specializing in women’s nervous ailments, expounded upon his belief for women’s nervous conditions when he said, American woman is, to speak plainly, too often physically unfit for her duties as woman, and is perhaps of all civilized females the least qualified to undertake those weightier tasks which tax so heavily the nervous system of man. She is not fairly up to what nature asks from her as wife and mother. How will she sustain herself under the pressure of those yet more exacting duties which nowadays she is eager to share with the man? (Mitchell 141)

Links Criticism Bibliography Domestic Goddesses Home Best known for her short story "The Yellow Wall-Paper," Gilman was a woman who wrote thousands of works, from short journalism to book length discussions of the social realities of women's lives to poetry. Her book, Women and Economics was hailed as a major accomplishment and re-published in several languages; Vassar college even used it as a textbook for a short time. Gilman's major concern during her lifetime was feminism women's suffrage as well as women's economic independence. She also self-published a magazine titled, The Forerunner, for seven years; the magazine is an incredible collection of thought and ideas and an example of how driven she was. Gilman learned in 1932 that she had incurable breast cancer. As an advocate for the right-to-die, Gilman committed suicide on August 17, 1935 by taking an overdose of chloroform. She "chose chloroform over cancer" as her autobiography and suicide note stated. During her life, Gilman published a huge volume of work much of which is unavailable to the modern reader. However, much of her work is beginning to be recognized as important and re-published. (See the guide to research for more information on this). She was an incredibly influential and ahead-of-her-time woman, and deserves more recognition.

Behind that outside pattern the dim shapes get clearer every day. It is always the same shape, only very numerous. And it is like a woman stooping down and creeping about behind that pattern. I don’t like it a bit. I wonder—I begin to think—I wish John would take me away from here!” Told in the first person narrative, we witness the descent into madness of a young middle-class woman and her treatment by a neglectful husband. One can also gather insight into the issues of marriage, divorce, patriarchal oppression of and medical treatment of women in the 19th century.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman 1860-1935 american writer and feminist Charlotte Perkins Gilman was born, Charlotte Anna Perkins. She was born July 3, 1860, in Hartford, Connecticut. Her father Frederick Beecher Perkins, a magazine editor frequently left the family for long periods of time. Charlotte would often spend time with her greataunts, Catherine Beecher, advocate of "domestic feminism", Isabella Beecher Hooker, an ardent suffragist, who was a supporter of women's right to vote, and Harriet Beecher Stower, author of Uncle Tom's Cabin In 1884, at the age of 24, Gilman married Charles W. Stetson, a local artist. Soon after, the birth of her first child, Gilman suffered from a near nervous breakdown. This experience led her to move to California, get a divorce, and leave her daughter in the care of her ex-husband. In California, Gilman who was poor, turned to writing as a way of earning money. Gilman wrote poetry, and short stories, among them "The Yellow Wallpaper," which later became a feminist classic. Among her poetry, and fiction short stories, Gilman wrote many non-fiction stories. Her best known work is Women and Economics ,(1898) which argues that sexual and maternal roles of women have been over emphasized to the detriment of their social and economical potential, and that only economic independence could bring true freedom.

Thou hast already broken the tender shoot! Never needle or distaff for thee, and yet thou wilt not be quiet!" The nervous fingers wavered, clutched at a small carnelian cross that hung from her neck, then fell despairingly. "Give me my child, mother, and then I will be quiet!" "Hush! hush! thou foolsome one might be near! Seethere is thy father coming, even now! Get in quickly!" She raised her eyes to her mother's face, weary eyes that yet had a flickering, uncertain blaze in their shaded depths. "Art thou a mother and hast no pity on me, a mother? Give me my child!" Her voice rose in a strange, low cry, broken by her father's hand upon her mouth. "Shameless!" said he, with set teeth. "Get to thy chamber, and be not seen again to-night, or I will have thee bound!"

Literature Charlotte Perkins Gilman Charlotte Perkins Gilman was born in Hartford, Connecticut, the daughter of Frederick Beecher Perkins, a librarian and writer, and Mary (Westcott) Perkins. Among her father's forebears was the novelist Harriet Beecher Stowe, who was his aunt. Perkins abandoned his wife after their infant died in 1866 - Mary Perkins lived with her children on the brink of poverty and was often forced to move from relative to relative or to other temporary lodgings. Charlotte was a voracious reader and largely self-educated. She studied two years at Rhode Island School of Design (1878-80) and then earned her living by designing greetings cards. In 1884 she married Charles Walter Stetson, an aspiring artist. After the birth of their daughter Katharine, she was beset by depression and began treatment with Dr. Silas Weir Mitchell in 1886. His recommendations, 'live as domestic a life as possible' and 'never touch a pen, brush or pencil as long as you live' were later satirized by Gilman in her autobiography. She also used the recommendations as discussions in her most renowned short story, 'The Yellow Wallpaper ,’ which first appeared in New England Magazine (1892). The narrator is a young mother suffering from a temporary nervous depression. John, her husband, is a physician, who doesn't believe in supernatural things. He has ordered her to 'rest' in the bedroom of their rented house. The patterns of the room's hideous yellow wallpaper start to haunt her. She sees a woman creeping around it, as if she wanted to get out. "Sometimes I think there are a great many women behind, and sometimes only one, and she crawls around fast, and her crawling snakes it all over." Finally she locks herself inside the room to creep around as she pleases.

Stanley K. Schultz, Professor of History William P. Tishler, Producer Shane Hamilton, Web Editor Gilman, Charlotte Perkins Feminist author, lecturer (1860-1935) Born to a cultured family whose New England heritage dated back several generations, Charlotte Perkins nonetheless grew up poor and rootless. Her father abandoned the family soon after her birth and provided little support, leaving her mother to drift in search of work and charity. As a young adult, Perkins supported herself as an artist and teacher. Married at 23, she found domestic life unbearable and suffered a serious nervous breakdown. She gradually recovered, though elements of mental illness lingered throughout her life. Perkins soon settled into an independent career as lecturer and author which continued well into her 60s, foreswearing traditional feminine roles in her own life while criticizing them in her writing. She committed suicide in 1935, following her second husband's death and her own diagnosis with breast cancer. Her best-known writings span several genres. The short story "The Yellow Wall-Paper" (1892) dealt with mental illness in semi-autobiographical fashion. In the "feminist manifesto"
