Writing about nineteenth-century women`s travel writing, Lila Harper notes that the four women she discussed used their own names, in contrast with the nineteenth-century female novelists who either published anonymously or used male pseudonyms. The novelists doubtless realized that they were breaking boundaries, whereas three of the four daring, solitary travelers espoused traditional values, eschewing radicalism and women`s movements. Whereas the female novelists criticized their society, the female travelers seemed content to leave society as it was while accomplishing their own liberation. In other words, they lived a contradiction. For the subjects of Harper`s study, solitude in both the private and public spheres prevailed-a solitude that conferred authority, hitherto a male prerogative, but that also precluded any collective action or female solidarity.

Which of the following best characterizes the "contradiction" that the author refers to?

AThe subjects of Harper`s study enjoyed solitude, and yet as travelers they were often among people.
BNineteenth-century travel writers used their own names, but nineteenth-century novelists used pseudonyms.
CWomen`s movements in the nineteenth-century were not very radical in comparison with those of the twentieth-century.
DNineteenth-century female novelists thought they were breaking boundaries, but it was the nineteenth-century women who traveled alone who were really doing so.
EWhile traveling alone in the nineteenth-century was considered a radical act for a woman, the nineteenth-century solitary female travelers generally held conventional views.
