Laura, In Williams’ Glass Menagerie
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that discusses the character of Laura from Tennessee Williams’ poignant play “The Glass Menagerie.” There are a number of similarities between Laura Wingfield and the small glass animals that she collects. As with her small glass animals, Laura is fragile, both in health and temperament. Also, like her animals, which are a beautiful expression of art, Laura herself has an ethereal beauty. This metaphor also connects Laura with nature as the shapes of her glass suggest the natural world, which is distant from the play’s urban setting. As this suggests, the glass menagerie itself can be viewed as a metaphor for understanding Laura’s inner nature and Romantic beauty. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Layton/Grim Fairy Tales & Gory Stories
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page reaction paper to an essay by Aviva Layton, "Grim Fairy Tales and Gory Stories." Historical scholarship shows that children reading fairy tales (and similarly violent tales) has been considered controversial since around 1800 (Should children). There is a tendency for adults to want to protected children from what is deemed "ugly, illogical, violent or frightening" (Should children). In a well-reasoned and persuasive essay, Avina Layton counters this tendency and argues that fairy tales provide a necessary and psychologically constructive outlet for the subliminal needs of human beings, which includes children. Rather than protest against the violence in fairy tales, Layton protests against mediocrity and the misplaced protectionism of adults that would shield children from worthwhile children's literature. Examination of Layton's essay shows her argument to be sound, as it coincides with what is readily observable in popular culture and childhood behavior. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
