We're talking late romantic and pre-victorian. At this time entitled women were getting an education and some started writing about how best to please men by having educated conversation. The portrayal of women changed from victims to occasional agents in the Romantic time, as is evident in poems like Chrystabel.
The changing role of women at the turn of the 19th century was reflected in art and literature through the emergence of feminist themes, the portrayal of female characters as more independent and assertive, and the exploration of women's experiences and perspectives. Artists and writers began to challenge traditional gender roles and address issues such as women's rights, social expectations, and equality.
