[ send me this paper ]
Brave New
World was first published in 1932, a time when the world, and especially

to the realities of political, economic and social realities which

example of the British high modern form of literature and also

Identity in Moll Flanders (1722)
[ send me this paper ]
(7 pp.) Did you read the title and think that this
was an oxymoron? Did women have identities in the
year Defoe's novel was published? Certainly they
could not have overt identities, that is for sure;
however Defoe is able to provide them for Moll in
the relationship she has with her clothes and her
money. If we look at Defoe's life, many of his
experiences parallel Moll's, or is the other way
around?
