Respuesta :
Married women in England during the Victorian era (1837–1901) were subject to high expectations and stifling rules.
How was marriage viewed in the Victorian era?
- In Victorian society, women's primary responsibilities were to marry and participate in their husbands' hobbies and businesses. Unless they were from an affluent family, they would learn housewife tasks like weaving, cooking, washing, and cleaning before being married.
- Marriage had always been her goal despite not having high expectations for either men or marriage; it was the only option available to well-educated young women of modest means and, despite being unsure of bringing happiness, must be their most pleasant means of avoiding poverty.
- In The Importance of Being Earnest, Algernon stands in for a more contemporary perspective on marriage since, in contrast to Jack, who has more traditional ideas about marriage from the nineteenth century, he doubts the happiness of couples in marriage and fears committing to one woman.
