Princess Ameerah Character Analysis

Improved Essays
In the far away kingdom of Meritopia there lives a king and queen who rule over their land in both power and strength, KING ELIJA and QUEEN CAMILA. The King and Queen hold a strong belief system that is bound by tradition, laws and above all, the perception others held of them. This ideology is what holds the kingdom together and what sets it apart from many other kingdoms.
As the years pass by and the kingdom’s success grows, the King and Queen feel that there is something missing in their perfect world. As they watch the Meritopians settle in with their families after a long day, they begin longing for a small family of their own; a family with whom they could share and pass down their success to, a family who could add to the expansion

She obeys the rules of the kingdom, and holds the traditions of her parents close to her heart. She is seen as the ideal child and daughter that the King and Queen had longed for.
However, while Princess Ameerah grows to be the princess everybody loved, Princess Lollita is her polar opposite. Princess Lollita lacks the beauty and grace that Princess Ameerah possesses, and where Princess Ameerah values her family’s traditions, Princess Lollita is in search of her own. Ultimately, Princess Lollita was not what a princess was supposed to be.
King Elija and Queen Camila desperately try to mould Princess Lollita into the daughter they could accept as their own, but fail to do so. Princess Lollita simply saw the world differently to her parents and as a result the King and Queen resented her. They decided that they would raise Princess Ameerah as the heir to their throne while leaving Princess Lollita to be raised by BABETTE, one of the servant maids in the castle. From there now, no-one from the kingdom would associate Princess Lollita with the King and Queen and as a result she became known as just “Lollita”. To ensure that Lollita would not influence Princess Ameerah to be more like her, the King and Queen forbid any and all interaction between the two

    The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will. Of Mice and Men was an intriguing novel that had two lonely men, Lennie and George, who traveled together attempting to find a better place, to achieve their dream. Along the way, they encounter work and several other people who have major impacts on their lives. The novel suggests that power is represented differently between men and women- or woman- and above all, the novel relies on the power of physical strength and intelligent manipulation to have their way. John Steinbeck portrays the idea that men and women have different ways to prove their power and thus, manipulation was far more damaging than physical aggression, and that manipulation was frankly the only way women could gain power during the Great Depression.…

    In Marie De France’s “Lanval”, It is interesting how, in spite of a woman’s common status as a tool toward greatness or moral poverty, the fairy queen is still technically a positive character because she raised Lanval to greatness, even though her interference in Lanval’s life appears to consume his personality and identity. In the beginning, Lanval does have some semblance of personality, indicated with the lines “For his valor, for his generosity, / his beauty and bravery” (21-22) which imply a generous nature but not intelligence or strong character, and his weak personality is evidenced by his actions as Lanval ultimately falls to the shallow trait of the fairy queen’s beauty despite the fact that her simple presence indicates far more…
