The quotes of a woman after her husband's death, 'Free! Body and soul free!' and 'Free, free, free!' show the power dynamic between the couple and infers the oppresion the female character is placed under. The female character is seen to have been under oppression and furthers the notion of gender roles, particularly within a marriage. Furthermore, the protagonist is ownly known by her surname, 'Mrs. Mallard', an indication of the lack of freedom given to a married woman in the story particularly the use of the husband's name as her identity.

V for Vendetta shows  two classes as being the proletariat (wage earners) and bourgeoisie (whose only concern is the power and value of property) This ties in with a Marxist perspective because it shows the Bourgeoisie people who control all the production. They use this produce to have power of the Proletarians and essentially gives them the upper hand in the hierarchical society.

In the film V for Vendetta, the character V is infamously outspoken against the bourgeoisie and campaigns viciously for the public to retain power in lieu of total government control over the proletariat. The film depicts a future in which an extreme form of capitalism reigns supreme and the power rests with a small number of people who evidently control the means of societal material production. As V is an avid supporter of Guy Fawkes' intentions, he in turn represents the desire of the proletariat to rise up and revolt to discontinue being exploited by the upper class. Through the use of the television and the media, the bourgeoisie are able to manipulate the proletariat to present their political, social and economic views as the only valid ones.

While this poem can be viewed as an allegory for child abuse, when viewed through a humanist lens, the poem presents a joyful narrative of a boy and his father dancing together.
'We romped until the pans slid from the kitchen shelf.' would imply such a level of vivaciousness that it effecting their surroundings.
'At every step you missed, my right ear scraped a buckle.' details how the dancing in clumsy and carefree and 'Then you waltzed me off to bed, still clinging to your shirt.' shows how the child does not want the dancing to end and would rather stay with his father than go to bed.

From a feminist perspective, this song portrays women as helpless, and sad, with their main interest to men being their physical appearance. For background, the song takes place as a storybook narrative, read by Adam to his six other brothers. In it, he sings "me oh my", as the men's reaction to the women swimming, likely naked, showing their sexual appeal and shallow impression. The next line is 'So they took 'em all back home to dry', with this line objectifying women to something like still-wet laundry, something that has the right to be taken and dried. Whilst the Plutarch tale that the song is referencing ends up with the women being kidnapped and raped, the song takes on a lighter musical method, with the brothers then going on to similarly kidnap, but not rape, six women; suggesting women as physically weak and susceptible, as well as morally acceptable to be kidnapped against their will. However, the whole merry and joking tone of the song needs to be taken into account for its sexist inferences. The happiness, choreography and sound goes for comical appeal, and for this reason, whilst still anti-feminist, probably shouldn't be taken word for word as seriously as a written text.

On the Subway, viewed through a psychoanalytical lens, is a battle between the ID and superego and how those two parts of the mind are seen by those on the outside. The woman whose perspective the poem is written, sees a comparison between the boy's ID or drive for aggression ('this life he could take so easily') and his superego ('the rod of his soul that at birth was dark and fluid, rich as the head of a seedling ready to thrust up into any available light.')   The psychoanalytic criticism suggests that the boy is experiencing both of these things simultaneously, kept in check by the ego.'
The woman recognises both of these responses in herself as well.  On one hand, she feels like a would-be victim ('he could take my coat so easily, my briefcase, my life.') but on the other, her ID could have more power. ('the way I am living off his life, eating the steak he does not eat, as if I am taking the food from his mouth.')  here, she is the aggressor, again showing how the ID and superego at at ends, while the conscious part of the mind keeps both of them passively in their train seats.

On the Subway, can be seen through a lens of New Historicism. Cultural events and the nature of the time show the treatment and thought of treatment between two people of varying races. Understandiong the history uncovers how and why the thoughts of the protagonist were developed. The quote 'And without meaning or trying to I must profit from his darkness,'  demonstrates an understanding of the history and truth of how 'black' people were treated prior to the time of setting. Continuing thoughts of 'he could take my coat so easily, my briefcase, my life —' elaborate on the thoughts and concerns of the protagonist and their understanding of why they are thinking what they are thinking. Furthermore, the social times and issues leading up to the setting show the racial divide between 'black' and 'white' peoples, particularly the slavery experienced centuries earlier. The aforementioned quote regarding the protagonist's unintentional profit from the other's race's experiences further demonstrates the reason they think and behave as they do. Overall, it is the historical events which drive her thoughts of negativity and reflection in regards to the boy she is near on the Subway and seeing the text through a New Historicism lens allows further understanding of the protagonist's thoughts by readers.

The song Sobbin' Womenis about the kidnapping of women, to take them away. The song is cheerful from the perspective of those singing, but talks about sobbing and crying women, who have been taken away from their homes. The women who were taken were referred to in the story as "loot" and "plunder", which implies that they were property that someone else use to own, that has been taken away. It says that "They seemed angry and annoyed, but secretly they were overjoyed", implying that they enjoyed being taken away, and do not have wants and needs of their own. Overall, it gives the impression that women are objects to be stolen, and that they do not mind what happens to them, even if they are taken away from their home.

V for vendetta gives an analysis of governments, and how they fail their citizens. In the story, people are granted safety and security, in exchange for a loss of freedom of speech. This mimics a society, where the upper class forces the lower class to stay in their position, and never overthrow the rich, because of a threat of harm and danger. As the man speaks on the television, he is being tracked down, to supress his message. This is because if people are given more rights and priviledges, then the gap between being a member of the upper or lower class becomes vaguer, and those in the higher class lose their wealth. This story also follows the Marxist theory that the middle class will always attempt to overthrow the upper class, as this person on the television is speaking out, and trying to radicalise a movement that can overthrow the Bourgeois.
