    Women In Big Love By Charles Mee

    Women are often looked at as weak, inferior and only use is to bear children and raise them, compared to men who are looked at as strong, superior, and gods on Earth, women are not looked at as equal to men. The play Big Love by Charles L. Mee, displays the different views of genders and their thoughts on marriage and equality with the opposite sex. Within the play we see the different gender views of marriage in a way that each character is another level of a gender stereotype.

    Love Is Caustic By Marie De France

    Love is Caustic: A Look into the Similarities and Differences of Laustic and Bisclavret Throughout Marie de France’s many lais, she focuses on the many facets of human nature, such as who can be trusted, who will act accordingly to their rank and status in the court, who will be honorable and treat others with respect, and most importantly, who is most deserving of the love of another. By the very definition of the lais, being a love ballad of sorts, this is nothing surprising. What is far more shocking about the works of Marie de France is that she holds nothing back when it comes to the repercussions that her characters experience for their actions. The idea that love can nurture and help one grow is noted by Marie, but the opposite being…

    Christina's World By Andrew Wyeth

    Your analysis of Andrew Wyeth's Christina's World, regarding scale and proportion was interesting to read. According to our class reading this week, Professor Tessier explained that “proportion is the size of a part in relation to the whole” (Tessier, 2017). You mentioned proportion in the painting regarding Christina being the largest object in the art work. My observation regarding proportion in this artwork was the vast size of the field in relation to the distance between Christina and the small farmhouse. My interpretation of the vast field was that, Andrew Wyeth wanted to create a sense of isolation between Christina and the farmhouse.…
