Adrienne Rich: How the Male Influences in Her Life Affected Her Writing
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing the male influences in the life of Adrienne Rich affected her writing. The work of Adrienne Rich is considered some of the most meaningful in feminist literature as it relates to her own intimate struggles for freedom from the male oppression within her life. Born into a household where her father was the dominant figure and her mother gave up her own career for her family, Rich recounts the cultural and oppressive issues she felt while living under her parent’s roof. Later in her own marriage which was a convention expected of women in the 1950s, and in which she had three sons in the first five years, Rich writes of the dissatisfaction of marriage and her need to change her situation. Luckily, Rich and her husband became involved in the civil and women’s rights movements in the 1960s which gave Rich the confidence to begin the liberation of herself and the liberation of her poetry. Her original works which promoted women to become “disloyal” to that which was expected of them were heavily criticized which led to Rich’s further writings of the empowerment of women. Rich’s works reflect heavily the oppression she felt in her own life from men but also deal with the oppression she has seen on a global basis and her works are not only considered important in regards to women’s issues but in relation to cultural and social issues as well.

Aeneas/The Purpose of His Flaws
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page essay that discusses why Virgil pictures Aeneas as possessing human flaws. Aeneas, hero of Virgil's epic poem The Aeneid, is, in many ways, the epitome the ancient Roman conceptualization of virtue. He accepts the will of the gods that he should be the founder of Rome. He displays compassion for the suffering of others, heroism in battle, and piety towards religion. In fact, Aeneas is so perfect that he would be totally boring except for the fact that Virgil's characterization tempers this perfection with a basic human flaw, which is Aeneas' tendency to act on emotional impulses that conflict with his destiny. This feature is particularly evident in regards to Aeneas' courtship and love affair with Dido, the Queen of Carthage. No additional sources cited.

Aeschylus' Oresteia & Sartre The Flies
[ send me this essay ]
A 7 page essay that examines the stagecraft employed in these two works. While the art of playwriting has evolved and changed over the course of Western civilization, playwrights whether ancient or modern had to accomplish similar tasks in the storytelling and dramatization. The audience, in both cases, has to be informed about the background to the story, that is, the context in which the play takes place. The audience should also understand the nuances of characterization and the motivation that propels the characters to specific actions. Looking at the stagecraft of the ancient Greek playwright Aeschylus, in his trilogy Oresteia, and the modern adaptation of this myth in Jean-Paul Sartre's The Flies, it can be seen how each author uses different theatrical devices to accomplish their storytelling goals.
