Ecocriticism now was Romanticism then. Authors, then, praised and boasted nature and its beauty through their works during the romantic age. Now, nature took part in the works and merge along with the contexts. Though ages have passed the admiration and dominance of Nature, over humans and literature are still persistent. Eco-criticism is the critical study of nature and natural elements through literature. Nature has always been a provider, sometimes a destructor; but, neither of those changed the dependence of humans on nature for their lives and livelihood. Humans try to tame nature for their existence and for materialistic gains, but nature does not always provide things as expected. In the West, people were very dependent on nature, for their personal and material gains, especially women.

Materialistic feminism is a feminist theory that seeks to understand the capitalist sources of women's oppression. Women were denied material wealth that could be inherited or provided, and no one cared. Feminists who spoke up for themselves liberated themselves. Women took over campaigns and movements, spreading the desire for freedom across continents. Feminism has evolved through several phases and waves. Women of all types and oppressive traits have been adopted as a result of these changes. However, all phases regarded material wealth as a necessary trait for all women to possess, namely financial stability and material independence.
