While reading this article I have found that the writer thinks that the author of Rebbca thinks that it has a pro-feminist interpretation. Source A talks about how when you read the book Rebecca you would see it way differently than her or when the book came out how marriage has changed. Which you can most definitely tell once you read the book. the reason why I said the writer of this article thinks Rebecca has a pro-feminist interpretation is that as you read and read more into the story you can see where the lines draw between the man and the women’s choices which make it very Obvious.

  Article 2

In this article, the writer is writing about a feminine perspective and how it’s seen in Rebecca. With the issues in it and how it's placed in the book where they are putting in that stuff not for us to catch but to make it seem normal. (In source b) They say the feminist underpinning is when the narrator is comparing herself to Rebecca and maxim and feels interfere with both which caused jealousy. What they are saying is that the narrator just felt like she wasn’t enough for Maxim but he never thought anything about it which made her think that she should change and become more mature for him. Because everything she heard about Rebecca was that she was this wonderful person who everyone loved and who took responsibility for the things she did and wasn’t as immature. So that made the narrator want to change but when Maxim was starting to see her change he didn’t like that because as you read more you find out Rebecca was a horrible person and he didn’t want her to turn out like Rebbeca.

Article 3 

This article talks about the gaslighting parts in Rebecca and how it is relevant today. Well, it seems like women could not get a divorce which is crazy and how they had to change for their husbands However if you didn’t want to get one you had to have a valid reason. Moving on from that the article is going into detail about the author and just giving us a comparison and contrast between the author and the narrator and maximizing life. Then goes into detail about we didn’t know everything that or about them because she may have told him things we didn’t find out till the end or never like just anytime they were together the author made it seemed like how they did click maybe because something happened in the past we still don't know or we found out later. Then it even concludes that Rebecca and Mrs. Danvers had a sexual relationship just the way Mrs.Danvers was just so against Maxim’s new wife and she was just very secretive and was mostly always in Rebecca’s room but then in the article, it says this “Male homosexuality had been illegal since 1533 but relationships between women weren’t even openly acknowledged. “The possible dynamic between Mrs. Danvers and Rebecca wouldn’t have been seen as a lesbian relationship because it wasn’t talked about then,” explains Dr. Charnock. “In 1921, the House of Lords discussed making female same-sex acts illegal but decided against it as it would have drawn attention to it. They thought more damage would be done by creating legislation, so it was better not to say anything at all.” Here is when the conclusion ends.
