Intimate part

There was a relationship with the reality of the black African whose suffering and exploitation was directly made real and exacerbated by the white French aristocrat, and the intimate, controlled and voiceless rendition of that slave in which the white owner used to consume in the physical (erotic visuals,), soothe in the psychological (depicting him as docile and benevolent), and exploit in the spiritual (used to reinforce a white colonizer identity). A similar play on duality is found in a…

Intimate partner violence compounded with substance use can be a complex and difficult struggle to work through with survivors and batterers alike. The power and control dynamics of those relationships can be masked often by or depicted as a result of the disease of addiction, which creates a rather convoluted and perplexing circumstantial environment to work within.

from modern day society, the term “bathing” has developed a different connotation. Since Roman times, bathing was viewed as a common routine of heath and well-being. No longer a social event, bathing has become a more private and intimate event, where nakedness is not a part of ordinary social interaction.

One of the most intimate feelings is loss. As someone who does not express her intimate moments publicly, Elizabeth Bishop’s poem “One Art” begins to change her dynamic with her poetry and herself. This is one of the few published poems which delve into an intimate topic and, I think, is part of the new era of Bishop poems where she becomes more open. A poem with about 17 drafts, Bishop spent a lot of time refining the poem and, in many cases, broadening it. Despite the intimacy of the subject,…

begins to be intrigued by the girl in a fairly natural way. As he sees her, a blind barbarian girl begging on the streets, left behind by her people, he feels an attraction for her. They begin their relationship in a completely physical way but noting intimate. The Magistrate is content with only dealing with her body. He massages her, bathes her, and sleeps next to her. He is completely satisfied with this seemingly normal relationship. As a combination of a lover and healer, the Magistrate…

The Storm Questions for Discussion 1. Kate Chopin’s The Storm is an excellent story to teach setting because of how she gives each of the settings in the story significance.

Dr. Mendenhall has explained that an intimate relationship is sharing intimate experiences in several areas over time with increasing expectations (T. Mendenhall, Intimacy lecture, 1//20/16). When I looked at it that way I came to the conclusion that I can be in an intimate relationship with my parents, siblings, friends, and some of my cousins whom I am close to. The first of many of the ideas that I have…
