Beowulf: Heeded Hrothgar's Advice?
[ send me this essay ]
3 pages in length. Exploring the common denominator that connects Hrothgar and Beowulf, one might readily point out the symbolic quest toward self-awareness inherent to each troubled individual. Hrothgar reflects upon what has occurred and - even though he professes appreciation - he nonetheless cautions Beowulf of the prideful monster that will eat at him if he does not exercise care. This epic poem - like so many others of this genre - exemplifies an era in which man's true virtues are epitomized, as well as how they endure within their most supreme existence. To have heeded Hrothgar's advice would have spared Beowulf some of his most agonizing moments, however, there was no way to warn of what fate awaited him when he was bound and determined to defy such a perilous destiny as Hrothgar foretold. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Berceo/Virgin Mary as Mother/Religious Symbol
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that discusses this thirteenth century poetry. Gonzalo de Berceo, thirteenth century Spanish poet, focused on the subject of the Virgin Mary and her importance to Christian worship in his text Milagros de Nuestra Senora (Miracles of Our Lady). Berceo begins with an elaborate allegory that pictures him as a pilgrim finding a field that he describes in a manner that immediately equates it with Paradise and the Garden of Eden. In this new "Eden," it is Mary who is the new "Eve." This allegorical beginning is the principal theme of Berceo's work, as he describes Mary as the central symbol of the new age brought about by Christianity. Just as Eve caused the downfall of humanity, the Virgin is instrumental in its redemption. No additional sources cited.

Berceo/Virgin Mary as Mother/Religious Symbol
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that looks at Gonzalo de Berceo's thirteenth century masterpiece Milagros de Nuestra Senora (Miracles of Our Lady), which consists of a series of narratives that relate many of the miracles performed by the Virgin Mary. In this work, Mary is essentially the protagonist who battles against the forces of evil, Satan devils, in order to aid humanity in the goal of reaching salvation. In so doing, the Virgin is pictured as humanity's greatest and most powerful advocate in the war between the forces of Heaven and Hell. Human beings are the fallible souls in the middle, who would undoubtedly fail to achieve Paradise if not for the intercession of the Virgin. No additional sources cited.

Bergsonian Criteria: Why Does Lysistrata Make Us Laugh?
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Laughter, according to Bergson, is an ever-changing entity – such a strange metamorphosis that it requires "something more flexible than an abstract definition." The extent to which laughter is an inextricable component in potentially every aspect of life is both grand and far-reaching; indeed, Bergson's comment "in laughter we always find an unavowed intention to humiliate and consequently to correct our neighbour" speaks to mankind's ability to shadow its otherwise obvious intent with the mask of subtlety. Such is precisely the case with Aristophanes' Lysistrata. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
