Directions for question 18 to question 21 Read the passage and then determine the
best choice for an answer from the questions given below. Base your choice on
what this passage states directly or implies, not on any information you may have
got from else where. "The emancipation of women", James Joyce told one of his
friends, "has caused the greatest revolution in our time." Other modernists agree:
Virginia Woolf, claiming that in a about 1910 "human character changed" and
illustrating the new balance between the sexes, urged, "Read the 'Agamemon' and
see whether your sympathies are not almost entirely with Clytemnestra". D.H.
Lawrence wrote "perhaps the deepest fight for 200 years and more has been the
fight for women's independence". But if modernist writers considered women's
revolt against men's domination as one of their "greatest" and "deepest" themes,
only recently, perhaps in the past 15 years has literary criticism begun to catch up
with it. Not that the images of sexual antagonism that abound in modern literature
have gone unremarked - far from it. We are able to see in literary works the
perspective we bring to them and now that women are enough to make a
difference in reforming canons and interpreting literature, the landscapes of literary
history and the features of individual books have begun to change. question 18 : 2.
