Mary Wilkins Freeman's mother rebelled against Mary Wilkins Freeman's "mother's rebellion" mother and was a typical woman in the late 1890s. It is common. America was a completely patriarchal society at the end of the 19th century. Women have always been considered to have a shorter life than men; women are less intelligent, weaker, and often less important than men. "Mother's resistance" is as strong a woman as Sarah Payne when women began to claim their rights.

• Katie Chopin (1851-1904) is a famous female novelist. Awakening (1899) represents the conflict between our inner life and the outside life. The hero is a respected wife and mother sending their daily life. Suddenly, she "woke up" in the summer, and she found passion before falling in love and finding suicide. The book caused a scandal and banned by many libraries throughout the country. • Thomas Eakins (1844-1916) is another realist painter who portraits friends, family and people in art, science and medicine. Gross clinic is often considered his best picture. It shows surgery for a Dr. Gloss 'young man, and the patient' s mother is turning around the corner. There seems to be a place where the audience is with the gross students in the operation amphitheater. Eakins student Henry Ossawa Tanner (1859-1937) was one of the most important African-American painters of this era.
