Abstract

The current study aimed to address how the status of English women in the early 20th century was reflected through a woman’s lenses and the possible reasons and solutions for this from a woman’s point of view. In this case study, six female and eight male graduate students with nine different nationalities read the texts on a digital reading mode and evaluated women’s point of view on Messenger group chats. The textual data collected via group chats were supported by the data elicited from two take home exams. Thematic analysis of the data revealed the themes as distorted education, patriarchal society and social barriers.
