10-point Plan To Bring Security And Peace To Homosexuals, Feminists And Abortion Supporters
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. People from all walks of life must endure social intolerance at one time or another; however, certain groups face prejudicial persecution on a regular basis. What is the answer for gays, lesbians, feminists and proponents of abortion that would bring a sense of peace and security in this lifetime? Is it too much to hope for that social bias begin to wane in exchange for a more understanding and open-minded world? Indeed, what lies at the foundation of all intolerance – be that toward homosexuals, feminists or those who support abortion – is a combination of fear and ignorance, an alliance that not only precludes the chance for security and peace but one that also encourages just the opposite.

A Comparison of the Ideas of Marriage in Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper comparing marriage in Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” and Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women”. In a comparison of Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” (1879) and Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women” (1792), Ibsen tells the story of an unequal relationship in the marriage of Nora and Torvald; an inequality which Wollstonecraft states shouldn’t exist in a marriage. For Wollstonecraft, a marriage is a social contract in which both partners are equal in their education and commitment to the education of the children and the betterment of the social and public life of the state. Without this equal commitment and mutual respect, the education of the children, a priority for the wife, will suffer and it will also lead to an eventual demise in the strength of the ties which exist between the social and public life of the state. Nora and Torvald’s marriage does eventually break down because of the inequality which does exist in the relationship with Nora having little or no control over her own life or the lives of her children’s. Another relationship within “A Doll’s House” which is more consistent with the ideas of Wollstonecraft does exist between Mrs. Linde and Krogstad. Their relationship is built on mutual respect, affection and the equality they offer each other in regards to their hard work and business matters. From Wollstonecraft’s perspective, their relationship would be one that is more consistent with that described in her “Vindication”. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Adrienne Rich's "When We Dead Awaken: Writing As Re-Vision"
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Carrying forth the burden that has plagued women for centuries, Adrienne Rich's When We Dead Awaken: Writing As Re-Vision attempts to alter the historical concept of patriarchy within the boundaries of contemporary society. In the author's opinion, the age-old gender molds are ripe for revamping and bringing into the present frame of consciousness. No longer are women to be made to suffer through an oppressive existence simply because it is the right thing to do; rather, Rich paints a new picture of a strong, intelligent woman who will not be coerced by the irrational expectations of an oppressive, patriarchal society.

Adrienne Rich: How the Male Influences in Her Life Affected Her Writing
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing the male influences in the life of Adrienne Rich affected her writing. The work of Adrienne Rich is considered some of the most meaningful in feminist literature as it relates to her own intimate struggles for freedom from the male oppression within her life. Born into a household where her father was the dominant figure and her mother gave up her own career for her family, Rich recounts the cultural and oppressive issues she felt while living under her parent’s roof. Later in her own marriage which was a convention expected of women in the 1950s, and in which she had three sons in the first five years, Rich writes of the dissatisfaction of marriage and her need to change her situation. Luckily, Rich and her husband became involved in the civil and women’s rights movements in the 1960s which gave Rich the confidence to begin the liberation of herself and the liberation of her poetry. Her original works which promoted women to become “disloyal” to that which was expected of them were heavily criticized which led to Rich’s further writings of the empowerment of women. Rich’s works reflect heavily the oppression she felt in her own life from men but also deal with the oppression she has seen on a global basis and her works are not only considered important in regards to women’s issues but in relation to cultural and social issues as well. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
