Jhumpa Lahiri’s “Interpreter of Maladies”
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing Jhumpa Lahiri’s “Interpreter of Maladies”. Jhumpa Lahiri (1967- ) wrote “Interpreter of Maladies”, a collection of nine short stories, in 1999 which since has been critically acclaimed in addition to having received the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Although this was Lahiri’s first major publication, the cross-cultural, -gendered and -generational approach to the stories holds a universal appeal for all readers. Born of Indian heritage but residing in New York, Lahiri maintains a subtle approach to her Indian culture and while all of her stories contain Indian characters or themes, Lahiri does not overwhelm readers with traditional Indian “magical realism” but instead provides readers with inside looks at her characters who experience the emotions associated with loss, communication, and loneliness; experience and emotions to which all readers can relate.

Joan of Arc
[ send me this essay ]
A 10 page research paper that offers an overview of the life of Joan of Arc, a simple sixteen-year-old peasant French peasant girl who could neither read nor write, but who managed to inspire and lead the French army to victory in a long protracted fifteenth century war with the English, continues to fascinate writers and audiences. This is principally due to the fact that Joan’s story contains so many incongruities and questions. Originally, she was condemned as a heretic, but was later canonized as a saint. Her exploits occurred during a time of extreme class and gender prejudice, but Joan was not only a peasant but also a woman. The very act of wearing men’s clothes was sufficient at that time to be used as a rationalization for heresy and this contributed to Joan’s sentence of death, even though she assumed this clothing in order to protect her modesty and chastity. This examination of Joan of Arc looks first at what is known in the historical record pertaining to her life and the influence that Joan’s legend has had various writers. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Jocasta/Maternity in Oedipus Rex
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page essay that discusses the role of Jocasta in Oedipus Rex. The writer argues that Sophocles uses his characterization of Jocasta, Oedipus' wife/mother, to underscore the principal themes of the play. Jocasta is a powerful maternal figure in the saga, representing ancient Greek values that defined fealty to the family as one of the highest virtues. While Jocasta appears on stage in only a few scenes, her behavior underscores the depth of the sin committed not only by Oedipus, but also by his biological father Laius. No additional sources cited.
