  • Christine De Pizan Essay

    1225 Words  | 3 Pages

    Christine De Pizan’s work in The Book of The City of Ladies pioneers a new genre of feminist literature that exposes a time period from the perspective of its female population. Due to this, De Pizan justifiably earns the title of a revolutionary author. However, to say that De Pizan revolutionized the conditions of women in the medieval ages and onward is an overstatement. In her book, De Pizan critiques sexist arguments in order to defend women against misogyny. The change that De Pizan presented in medieval culture was gradual because she was attempting to amend people’s perspectives on women rather than offer any institutional rectifications. She worked to establish that women can be just as mighty as men, and thus, they are not innately inferior. However, her goal was not to ensure that women have equal access to exercise and pursue their virtuous roles. Therefore, if observed

  • Unraveling the Magic and Chaos of a Strange Film

    1196 Words  | 3 Pages

    A strange film, a strange film indeed. It's quite amazing that director Julie Taymor was even able to get this thing distributed by a major movie studio, despite how flawed an experience it is. In fact, about half of the film just flat out does not work, however the half that does work is simply magical. The threadbare story, which is really just a vehicle for masterfully-staged musical segments, follows Jude, a young dock worker from Liverpool who journeys to America in search of a father he never knew. While there he befriends college dropout Max, and subsequently falls in love with his younger sister, Lucy. Their rocky relationship, intermixed with a lot of Vietnam talk and psychedlic visuals, comprises most of the film. Had Taymor left it at that, the film would have been an endearing and fun ride. Unfortunately she feels the need to clutter the screenplay with subplots concerning every other character in the film, including a fame-seeking female rock singer, a

    People are influenced by everything from jobs, music, fashion, certain people, even to different cultures. Chefs never seemed like the group of people one would expect to have an impact on the world, but they do. They change the way people see food and show that it is far more than just a way to stay alive it is sort of like a new way of life to say. There was one woman who changed the scene entirely, by graduating from the Parisian cooking school Le Cordon Bleu, publishing 19 books, airing 13 television shows, and having 8 DVD releases. Julia Child has been an inspiration for many cooks but has also influenced society as a whole while changing the way people thought about food and at the same time, revolutionizing the professional cooking industry for women.

    Gentileschi identified with Judith, the protagonist of the painting. The book of Judith, a 2nd century text, is a religious story in which Judith defeats the Assyrians, a mighty empire (Branch). The start of this violence, as seen in Judith Slaying Holofernes, was caused when the leader of the Assyrians, Nebuchadnezzar , sent his general Holofernes to attack the Jews held in Bethulia (Judith 7:7, 4:7).

With this distress, the people lost courage and made the decision to surrender within 5 days, unless God took pity on them (Branch). Judith gained courage from God and she
