The Role of Women in Six Classic Literary Works
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper showing this critical issue as demonstrated in the works of Aristophanes, Plato, Dante, Shakespeare, Tolstoy, and Cather (Lysistrata, The Apology, The Inferno, The Tempest, The Death of Ivan Ilyich, and The Professor�s House, respectively). The paper shows that throughout history, women�s role has been largely seen as procreative, and completely under the domination of the paternalistic authority -- whether it be father, husband, or society. Only as the twentieth century neared do we see women�s roles in society -- and their responsibilities toward it -- becoming commensurate with men�s. Bibliography lists five
sources.

Women and Society in Cather�s �O Pioneers!�
[ send me this paper ]

The paper argues that women such as Alexandra Bergson have drawn from their feminine side the sympathy to care about those less fortunate than themselves, and from their masculine side (which many of them didn�t even know they had) the power to change lives for the better.
