The marginalization of women in history is a theme that has affected many disciplines, from education to the workforce. Hugo's article regarding the invisibility of women due to male dominated adult education historical writers allows readers to learn quite a bit, both about the history of adult education and also about the treatment of women in American society.

A related reason is the nature of data sources and the definition of adult education of the time. Hugo (1990, p.9) says in this regard that "...an involvement by women that later histories interpreted as marginal...represented only a fraction of the adult education work women did." The main reason for this was not as much a conscious marginalization of women in the profession, but also how the profession was

Our thesis needs to be a little bit more varied than the actual question we will be addressing, because, in my opinion, simply categorizing one or both of the characters as versions of violence needs to be doubled by an analysis of the causes of violence, be they the characters' own interior framework or the external environment in which they
