Brother Jonathan 's Lament for Sister Caroline (Poem) In the first stanza, it can be observed that “pride” in first line rhymes with “side” in the second line, and “glow” in the third line rhymes with “foe” in the fourth line.

Dido’s complete “breakdown” when Aeneas leaves Carthage is perhaps the most memorable aspect of her character, which is fairly disturbing from a feminist perspective (and in general). Aeneas is scolded by the gods for wasting time in the city, and covertly prepares to leave; Dido somehow senses this, and begins to “[rave] and run wild,” to the point where Vergil describes her, in one translation, as “devoid of soul.” (4.300-4.301) This section of the text can be viewed as an extended comparison between Dido and Aeneas, and therefore, between women and men. Aeneas is portrayed as methodical and reasonably calm, even in his “stupified” and “terrified” state; Dido is portrayed as somewhat irrational and almost possessed.…

My initial thoughts, after I completed reading My Sister’s Keeper, coexisted as disbelief and misunderstanding. I uncovered it ironic that Kate, the sister that I anticipated to pass away, persisted alive, while Anna, the benefactor, died unexpectedly. In my mind, I assumed the end of the book to entail Kate dying from her Leukemia, with Anna bearing a devastating sense of guilt for aiding her sister in her death. This book taught my to retain an open mind – expect the unexpected. It simply illustrated the true ignorance of the mind; individuals tend to jump to conclusions, yet our judgments often appear misjudged and inappropriate.…

I have been told that there is a difference between calling someone your sister once you have joined an organization but the ones who are really your sisters are the people who you have been through something with. A Sisterhood is an array of feelings, emotions, and connections. It can't be described in one certain way or by one word. Yes, it is challenging but no one ever said that it would be easy. Sisters are there to pick each other up when they are down, and we are only as strong as our weakest link.…
In John Patrick Shanley’s play, the struggle for Sister Aloysius to prove—and for Sister James to believe—that Father Flynn molested Donald Muller serves as the central conflict. Father Flynn is progressive, hoping to reform the church which causes the more conservative Sister Aloysius to appear intolerant and suspicious of him simply for his radical ideas. This conflict addresses other concerns beyond abuse, such as that of the subjugation of gender in the Catholic church, which affects Sister Aloysius’s pursuit of justice and still resonates throughout contemporary pursuits of justice, as well. Shanley’s 2004 play convolutes Sisters Aloysius and James’s firm belief in the church’s patriarchal hierarchy by stymying them as they pursue justice…
