To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The feminist attitude is concerned with the woman in industry, in public life, in ever increasing spheres of public usefulness and eco- nomic importance. The woman who is capable of this develop- WEAK SISTERS 49 merit and of this consideration is not repre- sented in Hardy. Instead, it is her weaker sis- ter who holds the centre of interest — the woman who li3:£aJiy.. L£ason of her sex, and for no other purpose. Such a woman, at herTSest, is cap^l^ of a liigh and sensitive emotional life, even,... it may be, the refinement of grace and charm, but she holds no power over the minds of those around her. Sue Bridehead is perhaps the most elaborate study of this type which Hardy has made. From this point, through all the varying degrees of fineness, down to the utter vulgarity of Arabella Donn, he has traced the infiuence of such women. With all the changes of accent which are in- duced by differing situations he nevertheless preserves the same sentiment which makes the lure of such a portrait as this of Tess: She had stretched one arm so high above her coiled-up cable of hair that he could see its delicacy above the sunburn; her face was flushed with sleep and her eyelids hung heavy over their pupils.
