Maya Angelou
[ send me this essay ]
7 pages in length. Poet and writer Maya Angelou is as simple as she is complex. The lucid and uncomplicated images she creates with her seemingly elementary style are anything but; in fact, the complexity that resides within her characteristically unmistakable prose, which demonstrate a purity and precision like no other, is known only to those who can see beyond its façade. Attention to emotional detail and an unquenchable desire to portray her inner contemplation, Angelou favors a more realistic approach to convey the immense respect she harbors for her people. Utilizing the concepts of sincerity and truth, as well as incorporating strength and vulnerability, the author cleverly and quite appropriately captures her audience with her overwhelmingly perceptive and grand images of racial
struggles. In two of her most well known pieces – "Africa" and "I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings" – Angelou addresses the concept of oppression among the black race, coming forth to stand as a twentieth century hero to her heritage. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Maya Angelou's "I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings" - Psychological Theory
[ send me this essay ]
3 pages in length. Cultivating such intestinal fortitude after growing up surrounded by fear, self-loathing, sexual abuse and a sense of abandonment, Maya Angelou proved how one can rally back amidst what may otherwise be a lost and troublesome existence. Examining her remarkable path from an awkward and insecure childhood to a poised and self-assured adulthood, one may well attribute much of this progression to John Dewey's Progressivism Theory. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Maya Angelou/Phenomenal Woman
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page essay that offers an explication and analysis of this poem. Throughout the course of human history, men haven been primarily admired for their accomplishments, but the focus of admiration for women has been on whether or not their appearance fit with what a particular society considered beautiful. In her poem "Phenomenal Woman," Maya Angelou challenges this pervasive cultural feature and asserts that she is extraordinary and immensely attractive, without fitting within any of society's preconceived notions of how female beauty and attractiveness should be defined and conceptualized.

McCrumb/She Walks These Hills
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page book review that focuses on McCrumb's use of setting in this novel. While this novel is billed as a mystery/suspense novel, the reviewer argues that it is much more than that. McCrumb, basically, uses the conventions of the mystery genre in order to present a sympathetic portrayal of a region that is often denigrated, Appalachia. It is indicative of McCrumb's superb talent as a writer that can she can bring off this reversal, that is, making the action/suspense secondary to the setting. In so doing, McCrumb offers a novel that displays considerable insight into the nature and character of the people of this region while also providing the entertainment elements inherent in a mystery/suspense plot. No additional sources cited.

McCullers/Character of John Singer
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page essay that focuses on the character of John Singer in Carson McCullers' The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter. Singer has been described as a "deaf mute, living with the man he loves, in a small Southern town where all the other outsiders come to tell him their sorrows" (Schulman 39). This summation concisely conveys the action that centers around Singer, but it fails to convey the immense loneliness and suffering of the man that so many of the townspeople make their icon. The writer examines the ways in which the other characters in the novel come to depend and confide in Singer, as well as Singer's relationship to his friend Antonapoulos. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
