Description

In Reminiscences, Thomas Carlyle uses descriptions of his father, his wife Jane, and the poet Robert Southey to create two gendered dichotomies: silence and speech, and writing and speech. Carlyle associates silence and writing with masculinity, and speech with the female, as he defends the sphere of writing from women. Before Carlyle can allow Jane's choice to enter the masculine discourse through Letters and Memorials, he uses Reminiscences to reconstruct Jane, celebrating her commitment to silence and fitting her into his view of masculinity. **********
