Although Catharine Sedgwick and Anne Bradstreet lived about two centuries apart I found that Sedgwick mirrored some of the same themes that Bradstreet had in her literary works. They both discussed religion,sickness,family values, and also feminism frequently. One similarity between Sedgwick and Bradstreet was that they were both pious women. Sedgwick a calvinist and Bradstreet a Puritan. Sedgwick mentions a few different religions in her novel: Calvinists, Methodists, and Quakers.

Ellsworth Toohey and Gail Wynand played great roles as antagonists in the novel called The Fountainhead. Both of them spent much of their lives seeking a very selective form of truth which was a lie.
