Gloria Steinem once opined, “[a] feminist is anyone who recognizes the equality and full humanity of women and men.” Steinem renovated American journalism through being influential on expressing the improving the treatment of women in workplaces through her involvement in the feminist movements of the late 1960’s and 1970’s. Her domineering emotional strength as an independent female character connects similarity to even other beings. In the Four Branches of the Mabinogi, Pwyll encounters a…

draws the reader into the poem. The reader will sometimes relate to it and understand what the author is trying to say. The book Howl has four parts, but the actual poem is only the first three parts and the fourth part is foot note. I argue that Allen Ginsberg’s book, Howl is too difficult to grasp because the reader must research and translate every line in order to understand the author’s message. Ginsberg does not get to his point and published a book that the reader can’t understand, he’s…
The case I chose was Case 1 Down Syndrome Child with Intestinal Blockage and Case 2 Down Syndrome Child with Heart Defect. From chapter ten, allowing someone to die, mercy death, and mercy killing. I chose these two cases because they made me think more than twice on both situations. Rather to mercy the death of my daughter or to mercy kill my daughter out of my husband and my issues. These two cases made my think more than twice on the situation. The first case is about a 38-year-old women…

Erotic Irony A jocular aspect makes them serious instead of funny. Yet, the drama in these films is drawn from an intense philosophical background. Woody Allen embarks on a journey to laugh at our most intrinsic irrationalities. Sometimes, the viewer can conclude is that Allen is telling the history of our stupidity. Thus, erotic irony is a fusion between desire and lust. The impulse to solve a problem, which disturbs the protagonist, urges the need to find a solution…
A tsunami of emotions asphyxiates me in disorienting turbulence. I don’t want to leave my bed. My feet are cold, no, not in the literal sense, in the figurative sense. Something is amiss. Something is banging around somewhere where there shouldn’t be any banging, at least to my immediate recollection. What to do? Do I desert my bed to hunt down the bangs and their originator(s)? Do I pull the my eiderdown duvet over my head and shimmy from the headboard toward the foot of the bed to make myself…
Finding Self, Whitman’s Way: The One Among the Crowd “The impalpable sustenance of me from all things, at all hours of the day; The simple, compact, well-join’d scheme-myself disintegrated, everyone disintegrated, yet part of the scheme” (Whitman. “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry.). Walt Whitman was a graceful, yet outlaw poet that pushed the boundaries ink and paper. Whitman’s works were a journey of finding self through the natural world and his relation to the world, along with cleaver wording that…

Marginalization is the…
“I celebrate myself and sing myself,” these opening remarks in the poem “Song of Myself” by Walt Whitman set a clear tone for much of his work. One of the main focuses during Walt Whitman’s lifetime in the nineteenth century was put on humans and their minimally understood traits. As one of the few lead poets of his time, Whitman was well practiced in writing about major topics; additionally, promoting inquiry and recognizing not often expressed benefits, notably, his works regarding human…
