More More Magic

I vacuumed, cleaned the litter box, did the dishes, showered, spent a little time on the treadmill and...that's about it..other then this paper.
I switched a few things..the first and last paragraphs really. One last look over and i'll leave you alone for the night on the topic of this paper.
The gothic novel is a genre ripe with archetypes, be it the overflow of the sublime landscape, the affluence and domination of the male figures or, the lack of backbone the females of the time appeared to have. Time and time again, when reading any book in this genre, you will be inundated with a flood of feminine helplessness as well as male invulnerability. That is until you meet Maria De Vellorno and Ferdinand, son of the marquis, both key figures in Radcliffe’s “A Sicilian Romance.”
Marie De Vellorno is playing with her stature in her era while Ferdinand is almost like a shrinking violet, which is to say that he plays more the usual objectified role of the female. De Vellorno is not a good person or a good example of femininity to say the least. And Ferdinand, while without a doubt far more moral a person then De Vellorno he is not the norm. However, both of these characters are without a doubt characters who stand out amongst the crowd. They just don’t fit the standard mold.
I feel like my paper didn't just focus on HER so I made the thesis and wrap up include Ferdinand as well. ❤ ❤ ❤
