This bachelor thesis concentrates on women and the representation of their "silence" within the Victorian society through the novel of Thomas Hardy Tess of the d'Urbervilles. The paper describes how women were treated and what social pressure they had to deal with during the reign of Queen Victoria in the 19th century. The thesis further analyzes Thomas Hardy's attitude towards this issue and how it reflected in his novel.
