Two examples of literature that can be seen as a form of protest are the book "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman: with Strictures on Political and Moral Subjects", written by Mary Wollstonecraft, and the pamphlet "A Modest Proposal" written by Jonathan Swif.

In "The Vindication of the Rights of Woman" Wollstonecraft protests about the condition of women in society and how to deny them full education, just like men received, left them submissive, childlike and devalued. For this reason, Wollstonecraft protested the society that put women in a place that was not theirs and deprived them of being independent and of having a bright future that they were able to have.

In "A Modest Proposal", Swift ironically and acidly criticizes the state's neglect and irresponsibility in caring for the most needy, leaving them totally destitute.
