Barbie Doll And Homage To My Hips Analysis
In both poems "Barbie Doll' and "homage to my hips" the speakers focused on the same idea but had different ways of expressing those ideas. In the
poem "Barbie Doll" written by Marge Piercy shows how a young girl is affected by the idea of a "perfect" body that society thinks a girl should have.
A Barbie doll is a toy that young girls play with. Barbie is an unrealistic way of how a young girl should look and can ultimately lower one's
self–esteem. The company that makes Barbie decided that it would be beneficial for young girls to see the different body images one can have. On
the other hand, in the poem "homage to my hips" the speaker Lucille Clifton is proud and appreciative of her hips. She is able to go against the
standard norm of how society wants girls to look and gives her hips the importance that they are actual people themselves. Although "Barbie Doll"
and "homage to my hips" have a similar theme while the poets used a different structure and literary devices to portray how society sees a young
girls' body image. In both poems "Barbie Doll" and "homage to my hips" have a similar theme which focuses on the body image of a young girl. The
theme in "Barbie Doll" is that society sets standards for young girls to become something they are not and makes them feel they are only beautiful
if they look a certain way. In "Barbie Doll" the poet suggests that Barbie is the idea of a "perfect" young woman and makes younger girls feel as if
they need to look like Barbie to

Formation By BeyoncГ© Knowles-Carter: Performance Analysis
In 2016, BeyoncГ© Knowles–Carter appeared at the Super Bowl's halftime show, performing her latest song "Formation." During her performance,
some saw her outfit as threatening because she decided to wear a costume similar to a black militia group. She praised the group throughout her
performance which in turn, upset the audience. Dancing as the people, who many saw as a threat to national security, did not sit well. Black pride was
a dominant component within her performance because she shows how history was created by the African Americans. This lead to a big controversy.
Many interpreted her performance as an attack or protest, but it was a performance of paying homage to many great African–Americans that are against

Analysis Of Homage To My Hips
For thousands of years, women are expected to conform to the roles each society gives to them. In "Homage to My Hips," written by Lucille Clifton,
the speaker expresses her love for her body, even though her big hips don't fit other people's standards. The speaker explains the confidence she feels,
which all women can relate to. "Cosmetics Do No Good," written by Steve Kowit, has a speaker who feels the need to conform to the roles that society
gives to women. The speaker attempts to satisfy other people rather than being comfortable in her own skin. Both Clifton and Kowit develop their
speaker's identities by using symbolism, repetition, hyperbole, and simile in order to portray how women have different notions about their own body.
"Homage to My Hips" includes a woman who openly discusses her body in a loving way. The poem starts off with "these hips are big hips," which
already lets the reader know the speaker has a large body; however, the poet uses repetition to develop the identity of a confident, positive female. The
constant recurrence of the term "these hips are" makes it a mantra, which reinforce ideas. This form of repetition in lines 1, 5, 11, and 12 emphasizes
the sense of the speaker's independence. The poet also uses symbolism to cultivate the speaker's personality. In lines 4–6, it states, "they don't fit into
little/ petty places. these hips/ are free hips," (Clifton). The speaker doesn't care if her body neglects to meet society's standards for women nor is

Homage To My Hips Analysis
Black women have played a vital role in society for centuries but rarely get credit for their actions. Dating back to Ancient Africa, there were African
queens like Amina, Hatshepsut, Makeda, and Nefertiti who led their countries, combatted in war, left legacies with their kingdom, and most can only
be remembered for their looks as if their hard work were irrelevant. In the 19th century, there were influential black women like Harriet Tubman, Ida B.
Wells, Sojourner Truth, Mary McCloud Bethune, and many more who helped fight the injustices of racism done unto their families communities
whether it was up to them freeing slaves, participating in marches and protests, or using their knowledge to help educate the generation below them; the
majority of society during that time could not get over the fact that they were black women. Black women aren't supposed to be more than their
appearance.

Lucille Clifton's Poem 'Homage To My Hips'
In Lucille Clifton's poem "Homage to my Hips," the female speaker explores, praises, and celebrates her own sexuality despite living in a confined
society where people thought that having dark skin was not beautiful. Literary critic K. Anthony Appiah notes in his essay titled Race that, "we cannot
deny that having one set of heritable characteristics–dark skin...can have profound psychological and social consequences...in societies..."(285) Despite
the society in which the speaker of the poem lives, she to some degree turns the tables on the statement that Appiah makes in one of his essays. Clifton
masters this through form, meter and precise word choice and the speaker is able to feel comfortable with her body and blackness in a society that
rejects these "heritable characteristics."... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In the first three lines, the speaker tells us what her hips look like. "these hips are big hips"(1). She then states that there needs to be enough room

Symbolism In Clifton's 'Homage To My Hip'
The poem "Homage to my Hips" is a short but powerful poem. Although a "homage to my hips" is a short poem, it still gets its message across.
Hips are generally used as a symbol of a women's body. Hips cannot be used as symbol for men because hips symbolize a women's ability to bear
children. So technically women can do everything that men can do and even more. Clifton's "Homage to My Hips" talks about the separation of men
and women based off societies expectations; so basically, she is proclaiming that women should have the same footing as men in society.
The society that she had to endure, only portrayed that only a man can do certain task or jobs. The society believed that being a police officer,
firemen, and construction worker or even working in general is only for men because that is what the media show the public. The media didn't really
show women construction workers or women police officers but iy did show them at home raising their kids. That may seem rather harsh but that was
the mind set ever since the being of mankind until the 21st century. As explained in "Wonder Women': Towards a Feminization of Heroism in the
African Fiction: A Study of the Heroines in Second Class Citizen and God's Bits of Wood" awoman contributes to communal matters centered around
singing, and dancing during ceremonies, hence their education is not considered worthwhile (Agho 3). In the past it was a worldwide belief that
women shouldn't have the same rights and privileges as men. Society made men who treated there women equally were weak and unintelligent people.
Clifton writes, "They don't fit into little petty places, these hips are free hips". (Clifton 782)
Clifton's embraces her feminine features what she was born with even though she was born in a patriarchal society. She is proud of her hips because
she used them so much in her poem as symbolism. She doesn't talk about her body or gender with any sign of regret. She is rejecting society's view of
ideal women when she emphasizes her "big hips". She would be disappointed if she had small hips for her hips have shaped her. She directly goes
against the rule that society have set out for her physically and psychologically. Clifton was a African American women before

/ i have known them/ to put a spell on a man and /spin him like a top!" (12–15). The speaker showed the audience how men fell in love with her when
they saw her. She showed the audience that men fell in love with her because of her big hips. She compared a man to a spinning top and told the
audience that because of her big hips she was able to "put them under a spell" and control men. The speaker did not hide the fact that she did not meet
the body expectations. She wanted women not to be embarrassed about their bodies by showing them that she was still liked when she did not meet the
body expectations. People should not think that because they do not meet any body expectations they will not be liked or accepted, but instead should
embrace their natural selves.
Another literary device that Lucille Clifton used in the poem was the literary device of repetition. By using repetition, Lucille Clifton emphasized the
size of the hips and their power. Throughout the poem the speaker repeatedly said," These hips..., They want..., They need..., They do..., and They
go..." An example of this was when the speaker said," ...these hips/ are free hips. / they don't like to be held back. / (6–7). In this quote, the speaker was

Marge Piermy And Lucille Clifton's Objection To My Hips...
Both "homage to my hips" by Lucille Clifton and "Barbie doll" by Marge Piercy are free verse and deliver different perspectives on the significance of
woman's power. Clifton's poem empowers women to never be controlled by another person. Whereas Piercy's poem is a cautionary tale about a
female giving their power to others and allowing an idea of perfection to create a self–conscious prisoner that wears them down until they voluntarily
sacrifice their life. From our text we know that "Piercy engages with social myths that she believes inform the behavior of women". (Kelly 238) These
poems were written respectively in 1973 and 1980 but continue to remain relevant 37+ years later or the equivalent of an entire generation. Clifton is a
well–known feminist and is known for being against women's oppression. Clifton points out that women should not be suppressed by men in this
poem. Women are equal and should be given the same opportunities. In Clifton's poem when she says "I have known them / to put a spell on a man
and / spin him like a top!" (Clifton 13–15) she is really saying all women have the power and that all men can be manipulated by any woman. Women
are more than being subordinate to men and raising children. Women must be empowered equally for any society to flourish. Men are not capable
of giving birth to children, so without Women societies would cease to exist. Clifton's tone in "homage to my hips" is very confident. Clifton's
speaker is confident, articulate, and honest with herself as a woman. She's bragging directly to the audience about how amazing and magical her
hips are. They are something she is boastfully proud of and represent being a whole woman. In contrast, Marge Piercy's tone in "Barbie Doll" is
sarcastic. The tone appears sarcastic because of the absurdity of a world in which a doll indoctrinates a 'girlchild' to a society's idea of what female
beauty or perfection should be. Even in 2015, Barbie's core demographic is 3 to 6 year old's. ("Barbie Doll Statistics") Girls continue to be socialized at

Compare And Contrast Homage To My Hips And The Road Not Taken
The poets Lucille Clifton and Robert Frost both expressed the thought of a freed mind. While reading each piece of literature both authors talked
about daring to be different. For instance (Homage to my hips) displayed empowerment of being okay with not being what is not average. Which
parallels to (The road not taken) being that in life we are always given choices. Sometimes in order to stand out we have to make choices that are

George Orwell : The Political Pen By George Orwell
What sort of life and experiences could lead and inspire a man to write a story of a dystopian future that, over 50 years after its creation, feels like can
become a reality in the not–too–distant future? Keith Ferrell shows the life of that man, Eric Blair (George Orwell), in the biography George
Orwell: The Political Pen. Ferrell presents Blair in the biography as being rebellious and introverted yet considerate. Eric Blair is represented as
being a rebellious person throughout his life because of his earlier youth and the effects it had. For instance, by the end of his time at St.
Cyprian's, he had a realization: Eric Blair had, however, taken from what he could: a hatred for unquestioning obedience to authority, a loathing of
rote learning and memorization for its own sake, and a sense of awareness that class and social position counted for a great deal in the world but
that, for those not born to high class or position, there was not a great deal that could be done. (44) Blair was against many of the things that were
commonplace in society and had a fond hatred for them, which was not common among people; Blair aligned more with socialist ideas than with the
ones in place. Blair was against these standards and the way of things and wanted for there to be a greater sense of freedom in people based on these
ideas. Furthermore, while at Eton, Blair started to become a rebel and "different"; "He took to going out of his way to say shocking, unconventional

Homage To My Hips Summary
Homage to my hips
In Clifton's "Homage to My Hips" she defies the long socially constructed ideal of the female form. She praises her hips, specifically their bigness

these hips have never been enslaved". Clifton notes the power that her hips give her. Their size commands space and "they don't fit into little / pretty

The author is trying to express that no man can make a woman do what he would like her to do. This poem shows that females are no slaves and what
explains a female is her "hips". The poem starts off mentioning how women can feel good about their hips or any part of their body and should not
be afraid to flaunt it. A fact to mention is how now a day's its becoming a trend to be in shape and have a slim body which is becoming a
complexity to women with big bodies. The parts of the poem which explain how wonderful big bodies and big hips can be are encouraging to the
women out there who are not happy with the way they look. So if you're happy with the way you look then you don't need to worry about anything
and you can flaunt yourself however you want to whoever you want. Also she shows the how much power a women has over a man when she
mentions "spin him like a top", Big hips are a sign of admiration for all the men. The poet explains to us here how men love her body size and she
can spin any man like a top meaning that any man can be a lover to this pleasure–loving woman. Big bodies are considered by many people to be very

All Hips Are Not Leaving
These Hips Are Not Leaving In Lucille Clifton's "Homage to My Hips," the author confronts society's negative conception of the female body.
Clifton explains to the readers that to be happy a person needs only one thing, confidence. Clifton's argument and view are evident throughout the
entire poem. Clifton uses a confident speaker, a free form, and a clear tone to convey her opinion on society's view of beauty in a clear and concise
way. The theme of "Homage to My Hips" is first expressed to the reader through the poem's speaker. The author made a smart decision in choosing a
speaker who was confident and matter–a–fact about her opinion. From the beginning of the poem the speaker tells the readers, "these hips are big
hips"(779). It is clear that the speaker is aware of how she looks, but she does not care what people think about her image. The speaker is taking a
stand by explaining that "these hips" do not "fit into little/ pretty places" contrary to what society states(780). The speaker directly advocates the
author's theme while discussing her hips. The interesting choice made by the author is to not give any description of the woman's physical
appliance other than what her hips look like and how they act. Clifton is hinting at a deeper meaning. The speaker is not interested in how her hips
look as much as how her hips act. The reader knows what kind of woman the speaker is based solely off of the actions of her hips, not by image. The

The Fall Of The Roman Empire
Feudalism was a system developed in Medieval Europe, which structured European society. This system emerged after the fall of the Roman Empire.
People needed protection and the feudal system was a way of protecting people in exchange for their services. Feudalism was developed around the
8th to 12th centuries, and it was based on premises between the two people. Feudalism was a way of survival where people exchange their services for
land or protection of the lords. There was no money involved in the feudal society but rather homage, which was the acknowledgement of feudal
alliance between to people.
There were two types of homages, vassal homage and servile homage. Vassal homage was when a vassal, who was usually a knight or noble,
exchanged their services in war for a fief from the lord. A fief was land or manor that came with several peasants. Servile homage, on the other hand,
was when the lord gave protection to the serfs in exchange for their services of working the land. Although serfs were not salves, they did not have
many rights.
The origins of feudalism can be traced back to the Frankish kingdom of the 8th century, specifically the Carolingian dynasty in Western Europe
(History of Feudalism). Charles Martel [what other kings] granted land to nobles to yield the income that is needed for armies. According to William

Lucille Clifton's 'Homage To My Hips'
In Lucille Clifton's, "Homage to My Hips", she sings the melody of the power of her hips. Proclaiming all that they can do and how her hips
cannot be oppressed. Clifton uses formal elements such as repetition, shape, and enjambment in "Homage to My Hips" to push through the
speaker's feminist declaration of reclaiming her body and exploring body love. The repetition of the words, 'hips', 'theses' and 'they' throughout the
poem puts an emphasis on the power of the speaker's body and her declaration of body love. Clifton uses hips as a synecdoche for her entire body;
a body that is constantly put up for scrutiny by the world. She begins the poem with the proclamation "these hips are big hips" (1) to make it clear
that she doesn't have a body that fits societies' standards of what the perfect body is. Clifton only refers to the hips in the poem as 'these hips' or
'they' to create dissociation from her. She never once uses personal pronouns in the poem, except at the end when she says "i have known them/ to put
a spell on a man and/ spin him like a top!" (13–15). She does this to show that society has taught her that her body doesn't belong to her and the only
time she will be able to be remotely associated with it, is when she is being considered a temptress. She and every other female have been taught that
their body size must be small and will always be public property for every man that walks their way. Clifton reclaims her hips by making statements
of her hips powers "they don't fit into little/ petty places. these hips/ are free hips." (4–6). Even though she never claims her hips as her own, she is still

The "petty places" she is describing are literally places that larger hips may be looked down upon and also metaphorically symbolizes places like

won't get them anywhere in the world, they want to go out and do what they want and want to have some sense of fulfillment in their lives.
However, During the time period, this poem was written when females were stereotyped and told to look a certain way. The fact that females always
belonged in the kitchen whiles men went out there an pursued their dreams was bizarre . it's so surreal how females had no rights to peruse what we
wanted to but rather, men were praised and men were "the head". when in fact, in today's society, females are doing the same things men are doing. We

Barbie Doll Patriarchy

image of what an "ideal" woman should be; rather, she made herself into a crusader for women's rights" ("Barbie Doll" 33). The quote helps me to
understand Piercy's views for this poem. She felt that she did not fit into the image of the perfect women of how society was seeing, but she would
not let a man control her life. Instead, she became an advocate for women's rights. Lucille Clifton introduction for her biography says, "The poet is

Douglas writes the article "Young Women Learn Harmful Gender Stereotypes from Reality TV" that, I think, is most relevant in the 21st century. The

carefully selected lunk of a guy–in the most recent case, Aaron–is presented with a harem of 25 also carefully selected young women, all slim, all
conventionally pretty and most blonde"(Douglas, para. 1). A show such as The Bachelor does not represent real women. The media tries to portrait a
perfect looking woman, which majorities are white on the show. In Clifton's poem, she frees herself from the stereotype of what women should look.
In her poem "homage to my hips," the speaker says, "these hips have never been enslaved, / they go where they want to go / they do what they want
to do" (ln. 8–10). Additionally, Douglas says, "The show is not about Aaron, it's about the 25 young women. Female viewers see an array of
personas, identifying with some and rejecting others, as they calibrate what kind of woman succeeds in a world where appearance and personality
still powerfully determine a woman's fate" (para. 8). To me, it says that a women who watches those type of show do not care about the bachelor,

were unfamiliar artistic styles during that time, until he had fully established his own style and could learn more techniques from other German

Italy Durer studied the form and techniques of Schongauer's engravings. "Martin Schongauer, was known as the most talented engraver and painter

Feminism In Rap Songs
This study was motivated by the lyrics rapped in hip–hop songs and the connection they have with how these artists conceptualize women. The
researchers looked for a connection between the hip hop genre and how certain artist promote feminism throughout their songs. They defined a hip hop
feminist as "women and men who step up and speak out against gender exploitation in hip hop," (Tyree & Jones, 2015, pp.62). Rap throughout the
decades went from speaking out against inequality and negatively shifted toward materialism, sexuality, and misogynistic language. There are four
distinct types of identification of women throughout the lyrics of the hip hop songs which are, "mammy, matriarch, sexual siren, and welfare mother
or queen," (Tyree et al., 2015, pp. 59). Each of these identifications contribute to the type of song being sang, such as mammy's which are respectable
and loyal women and matriarchs are women who are independent and hold a family together. These two types of women bring homage to women in
rap lyrics whereas sexual sirens and welfare mother/queen are identifications that degrade women in rap lyrics. ... Show more content on

Analysis Of Las Meninas ( Maids Of Honor, By Diego Velazquez
Las Meninas (Maids of Honor) by Diego Velazquez, is a Bourque style Spanish painting from the 1700's, which is known as Velazquez's masterpiece as
an artist and his life as a court painter. Some say Las Meninas is, "This work, one of the most perfect fac–similes of nature that art has ever produced,
and which Girodano called la teologia de la pintura, is among the latest productions of the artist" (Curtis 14). Velazquez's masterpiece was so highly
endorsed by many, thus is why Las Meninas was referenced as the la teologia de la pintura, also known as the theology of the painting, which is a
great honor to receive. The painting portrays the royal family's daughter and her servants posing for what looks to be, Diego painting a portrait on a
large canvas. However, a reflection of a mirror in the background shows the royal parents, King Philip IV of Spain and his Queen Mariana watches
over Velazquez as he works, thus gives off the illusion that they are looking at this from outside the painted area (audience view). According to Albert
Fredrick Calvert, "Velazquez painted the scene for us to view as it must have appeared to the royal parents. With them we gaze at the sunlight
–flooded
space where the child drama is enacted" (Calvert 165). While it has been highly questioned throughout the years, whether the portrayal of the
portrait is of the royal daughter and her servants or if it is a portrait of the royal parent's reflection, thus is what makes this painting one of
Velazquez's greatest pieces of work. Diego's vision for this masterpiece was to show what his life and career has become as a celebrated artist,
therefore holding court by paying homage to himself and the royal family by adding himself into the family portrait. A major part of the success of
Las Meninas and the painting itself, is the way Velazquez could give off light throughout the room, which makes the painting give off much more of a
natural light. It is said that the use of light "The lighting of the scene by four windows on the right, and a door in the rear, unusual difficulties over
which the painter has triumph with remarkable genius" (Curtis 14). While we know the use of lighting in the portrait was important for the success,

Homage Kenneth Koch
'Homage Kenneth Koch' is an intriguing poem written by Allen Ginsberg in 1977. Allen utilizes many literary components to send out a message of
the politics and pollution that our world faces by using the prosaic chore of doing laundry to symbolize how he wants to fix the problems across the
globe. The big idea this poem portrays is how the world needs a wash to clean the conflict in the word.
'Homage' is one big exaggeration and analogy, it insinuates to the pollutions, politics, war and extinction that the world suffers from. The surface of the
poem is about several countries and places, and with each country he mentions how he would wash the imminent country/place in the laundry and what

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
When analyzing the importance of the structure and substance of a work of literature, people often times make the blunder of only putting emphasis on
the substance. Instead of regarding the substance and structure of a novel as two vastly different things, they should think of them as a Christmas tree.
If the structure was the bare pine tree, then the substance would be all the ornaments used to decorate the tree, and together they are a Christmas tree.
But without the tree itself, the Christmas tree would not exist, for there would be no place for the ornaments to hang on. (Terlaje) In the same way, the
substance of a story is dependent on the structure, because the structure lays down the foundation for the substance. Once an author is ... Show more

Throughout Paulo Coelho's world renowned novel, The Alchemist, the usage of archetypes is so evident that even the name in itself is an archetype.
However, for an individual to thoroughly articulate that notion, one must delineate what an alchemist essentially is. So with that being stated, an
alchemist can be loosely defined as person who takes something of lesser value and turns it into something of greater value through the use of alchemy.
(Terlaje) Often times, they are associated with attempting to turn lead into gold. Coelho gives this definition a more profound meaning by making use
of the alchemist as an archetype to symbolically represent the mysterious force that guides humans to their personal legends. The alchemist, akin to an
archetype, appeared various times in the story to aid Santiago along his journey, embodying the form needed for that certain situation. Throughout the
novel, Coelho gave subtle textual hints such as, "If he ever write a book, he thought, he would present one person at a time, so that the reader would
not have to worry about memorizing a lot of names." (The Alchemist) And if an individual were to really scrutinize the novel, they would discover that

Analysis Of George Orwell 's ' The Road '
In The Road to Wigan Pier (1937), Orwell tries out his own understanding of socialism, with striking phrasing: "We've got to fight for justice and
liberty. And socialism does mean justice and liberty, when the nonsense is stripped off it." He further declares that "the real socialist is one who
wishes–not merely conceives it as desirable but actively wishes–to see tyranny overthrown" (Orwell, The Road 76). One senses here that the point is
not the ultimate triumph of a particular doctrine or party, but the triumph of human dignity. This triumph can be achieved by war and revolution.
Orwell wrote to Cyril Connolly, telling him: "I have seen wonderful things and at last really believe in Socialism, which I never did before" (Orwell,
Collected Essays 269). Although it was clear that he was at least intellectually committed to socialism, it was Spain that gave his socialism an
emotional Bedrock and dictated the course his socialism would take. In his preface to the Ukrainian edition of Animal Farm he wrote:
Nothing has contributed so much to the corruption of the original idea of Socialism as the belief that Russia is a Socialist country and that every act
of its rulers must be excused, if not imitated. And so for the past ten years I have been convinced that the destruction of the Soviet myth was essential
if we wanted a revival of the Socialist movement (Orwell, Preface 339).
Orwell later clarified his position through writing that

and drawings to base off my own homage. I believe you can learn so much more about a specific location from this type of medium because it is a
different way to express the human mind and other senses that we do not usually use when learning about places. I chose a couple pieces of work
that stood out to me because of the connection I thought it had with my Lowellian homage. For instance, one of the pieces that I chose was "The Bay

Rhetorical Analysis Of 1984 By George Orwell
In this excerpt from 1984, by George Orwell, Winston Smith, a worker for the ministry of truth, has been caught for committing a thought crime
and is being taken to room 101 for punishment. During the passage, Smith desperately tries to escape his punishment. Through the use of
rhetorical devices such as repetition, imagery, and details, the tone of urgency is revealed In the excerpt, Orwell uses the rhetorical device of
repetition in order to create suspense. For example, right before the rats are going to attack, Winston says, "'Do it to Julia! Do it to Julia! Not me!
Julia! I don't care what you do to her. Tear her face off, strip her to the bones. Not me! Julia! Not me!'" The repetitive screams for help from Winston
reveals the tone as he is frantically begging for mercy. Another example of repetition is used is when Orwell writes, "To think, to think, even with a
split second left––to think was the only hope" This reveals the tone as it reveals Winston only has a split second to save himself from the rats, and he
must be able to think fast in order to do it.... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
For example, when Orwell describes, "The circle of the mask was large enough now to shut out the vision of anything else. The wire door was a
couple of hand spans from his face. The rats knew what was coming now." This creates the tone as the rats are now closing in on Winston and are
preparing to attack, which leaves him little time left before he must face his fear. In addition, another example is when the book says "Winston heard
a succession of shrill cries which appeared to be occurring in the air above his head. But he fought furiously against his panic." This displays the tone
as Winston has now begun to panic after hearing the cries of the rats above him. As he desperately fights against his punishment, the tone of urgency is

Relationship between Art and Technology in 1960s
Spurred on by exhibitions, industry sponsorship and education programmes, the artists of the 1960s began to grapple with the space age. The launch of
Sputnik in 1957 prompted a new interest in the world of the machine, yet the artistic approach to technology differed from the Futurist and
Constructivist precedent. Technology did not hold utopian potential; rather the artists of the 1960s adopted varied approaches, ranging from sheer
admiration to fearful pessimism. However, by the end of the 1960s technology became closely associated with the American war effort. The negativity
that developed in response resulted in the technological work of artists such as Jean Tinguely and Robert Rauschenberg being pushed aside in favour
of Conceptualism. Jean Tinguely's Homage to New York (1960) and Robert Rauschenberg's Soundings (1968) will be used to explore how these
particular artists responded to the rising technology, and the extent to which artist and scientist collaborated.
The technological works of Tinguely can be classified as kinetic due to their incorporation of mechanical movement. For Pontus HultГ©n the inclusion
of movement implied a 'complete rejection of the holy values of art', the traditional characteristics of sculpture were abandoned and kineticism projected
sculpture onto a different course. Tinguely, like Rauschenberg, used technology as a means to question and investigate his society. For the artist of the

power. Lucille Clifton's, a supporter of African Americans and feminism, believes that women have the same power as men. Anything men can do

She will not follow the rules society has set for her ethnically and physically. In "The Construction of Femininity, Race and Sexuality", the term
feminist has a broader reach, it describes a range of self determination and equality (Tyree 2). Being an African American feminist in her time
period was much more difficult than today. She had to face ignorant minds and fight for her belief. Lucille Clifton praises her body that has made
her independent. She believes the only thing that sets a man off from a woman is her hips. She believed that women should have the same rights as
men, her hips should have not been held back. Women are capable of performing the same tasks. Women are emotionally stronger than men as well.
Women were granted with a gift that no man could ever do, childbearing. Many look at it as not a grand thing, but in fact the world is dependent on
a woman. The speaker states that "these hips are magic hips" (12) to show how they could help her get certain things from a male. Clifton writes, "i
have known them to put a spell on a man and spin him like a top" (13–15) to display how her hips could possible attract a lover. Clifton strongly writes,
"They go where they want to go" emphasizing that a female should be able to live her dreams and aspirations. She bestows "homage" to her hips for
giving her individuality.

In her first chapter appropriately named "Where I was Born", Keckley mentions that she was not only born a slave but refers to slavery in a unique way
that offers a hint of foreshadowing. She mentions "I was but a child myself – only four years old – but then I had been raised in a hardy school – had
been taught to rely upon myself, and to prepare myself to render assistance to others" (Gates Jr. & Smith, 311). What is so profound about that
statement is that hardy school was a double entendre used to refer to slavery. Hence, the idea that slavery taught her independence which she
carried with her throughout her life. As it pertains to her writing, slavery also equipped her with the poise she presented both in her demeanor and
in her work as a renowned seamstress. Another detail that Equiano incorporated within his writing, is the meaning of his name. As he says in the
text "I was named Olaudah, which, in our language, signifies vicissitude or fortune also, one favoured, and having a loud voice and well spoken"
(Gates Jr. & Smith 121). Equiano was a man who was the youngest born son to village leaders who owned slaves, became a captive of slavery
himself, briefly worked in the fields as a slave before following his master overseas and ultimately buying his own freedom. What's most profound
throughout that, is the fact that he used his voice to help others who are stuck where he was able to break free. PBS has an article where

Norman perfectly describes this film in a whole. While this film being overly graphic, its story and actions within the film keep the audience wanting
to see more, regardless of how shocking it is. As the film progresses, it seems to just continue with its graphic depictions. For example, they trick a
woman and her husband into letting them into their home. Once inside, they tie a ball over mouths to prevent screaming. Right after, Alex and his gang
rip her clothes off, in which her husband naturally reacts to try and prevent it. Alex acknowledges him and essentially humiliates the man and the
gang proceeds to rape her to death. This scene is graphically depicted to the core. It is easy to see why Time Magazine ranked it in its, "Top 10

portrayal of this scenes, we see the film become critically acclaimed as one of the best. Not only does this follow the book almost identically, but it

reappearing, and the resemblance of a class society slowly drifting back into view. Later he describes his sadness after getting dragged into street
fighting caused by infighting between the communists and various anarchist factions, mostly caused by communistic led police trying to seize a
telephone exchange held by anarchists in Barcelona. Finally after escaping the street fighting, he returns to the front for a short time until being shot

magazine that Homage was "an insult both to poetry and to scholarship, and to common sense (viii). Highet accused Pound of "bad taste" and a
disgusting misinterpretation of Propertius. Later, Robert Graves, a classical translator, attacked Pound's inaccuracies in the poem. In the Times
Literary Supplement, he published a comical short play called Dr. Syntax and Mr. Pound mocking Pound's ignorance of Latin and the radical
distortion he made and his claim of producing a free–verse translation of the poem. He concluded that Pound has no respect for Propertius and that he

King Kong Comparison
The original King Kong (1933) was fairly different from the new 2005 version. In the new version, Kong was much more humanized. For example,
in the end when Kong falls off of the building and dies, it is heartbreaking. But in the original, there is a sense of relief when Kong finally dies, after
terrorizing New York City and especially Ann. Kong and Ann share a more profound bond in the newerfilm. That is shown when Kong is finished
fighting the three Tyrannosaurus Rex, she willfully goes with him, after he saves her. Also, towards the end you see Kong and Ann having fun playing
on the ice back in New York. Ann wasn't afraid of Kong in the remake. One of the biggest differences between the 2005 and the 1933 versions were the

Barbie Doll And Homage To My Hips Analysis

  • 1. Barbie Doll And Homage To My Hips Analysis In both poems "Barbie Doll' and "homage to my hips" the speakers focused on the same idea but had different ways of expressing those ideas. In the poem "Barbie Doll" written by Marge Piercy shows how a young girl is affected by the idea of a "perfect" body that society thinks a girl should have. A Barbie doll is a toy that young girls play with. Barbie is an unrealistic way of how a young girl should look and can ultimately lower one's self–esteem. The company that makes Barbie decided that it would be beneficial for young girls to see the different body images one can have. On the other hand, in the poem "homage to my hips" the speaker Lucille Clifton is proud and appreciative of her hips. She is able to go against the standard norm of how society wants girls to look and gives her hips the importance that they are actual people themselves. Although "Barbie Doll" and "homage to my hips" have a similar theme while the poets used a different structure and literary devices to portray how society sees a young girls' body image. In both poems "Barbie Doll" and "homage to my hips" have a similar theme which focuses on the body image of a young girl. The theme in "Barbie Doll" is that society sets standards for young girls to become something they are not and makes them feel they are only beautiful if they look a certain way. In "Barbie Doll" the poet suggests that Barbie is the idea of a "perfect" young woman and makes younger girls feel as if they need to look like Barbie to ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. Formation By BeyoncГ© Knowles-Carter: Performance Analysis In 2016, BeyoncГ© Knowles–Carter appeared at the Super Bowl's halftime show, performing her latest song "Formation." During her performance, some saw her outfit as threatening because she decided to wear a costume similar to a black militia group. She praised the group throughout her performance which in turn, upset the audience. Dancing as the people, who many saw as a threat to national security, did not sit well. Black pride was a dominant component within her performance because she shows how history was created by the African Americans. This lead to a big controversy. Many interpreted her performance as an attack or protest, but it was a performance of paying homage to many great African–Americans that are against police brutality. ...

  • 3. Analysis Of Homage To My Hips For thousands of years, women are expected to conform to the roles each society gives to them. In "Homage to My Hips," written by Lucille Clifton, the speaker expresses her love for her body, even though her big hips don't fit other people's standards. The speaker explains the confidence she feels, which all women can relate to. "Cosmetics Do No Good," written by Steve Kowit, has a speaker who feels the need to conform to the roles that society gives to women. The speaker attempts to satisfy other people rather than being comfortable in her own skin. Both Clifton and Kowit develop their speaker's identities by using symbolism, repetition, hyperbole, and simile in order to portray how women have different notions about their own body. "Homage to My Hips" includes a woman who openly discusses her body in a loving way. The poem starts off with "these hips are big hips," which already lets the reader know the speaker has a large body; however, the poet uses repetition to develop the identity of a confident, positive female. The constant recurrence of the term "these hips are" makes it a mantra, which reinforce ideas. This form of repetition in lines 1, 5, 11, and 12 emphasizes the sense of the speaker's independence. The poet also uses symbolism to cultivate the speaker's personality. In lines 4–6, it states, "they don't fit into little/ petty places. these hips/ are free hips," (Clifton). The speaker doesn't care if her body neglects to meet society's standards for women nor is ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Homage To My Hips Analysis Black women have played a vital role in society for centuries but rarely get credit for their actions. Dating back to Ancient Africa, there were African queens like Amina, Hatshepsut, Makeda, and Nefertiti who led their countries, combatted in war, left legacies with their kingdom, and most can only be remembered for their looks as if their hard work were irrelevant. In the 19th century, there were influential black women like Harriet Tubman, Ida B. Wells, Sojourner Truth, Mary McCloud Bethune, and many more who helped fight the injustices of racism done unto their families communities whether it was up to them freeing slaves, participating in marches and protests, or using their knowledge to help educate the generation below them; the majority of society during that time could not get over the fact that they were black women. Black women aren't supposed to be more than their appearance. Lucille Clifton, Black female poet, detests the previous statement with her powerful poem titled, "homage to my hips." Through the use of the title, the speaker, and symbol, Clifton expresses ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

  • 5. Lucille Clifton's Poem 'Homage To My Hips' In Lucille Clifton's poem "Homage to my Hips," the female speaker explores, praises, and celebrates her own sexuality despite living in a confined society where people thought that having dark skin was not beautiful. Literary critic K. Anthony Appiah notes in his essay titled Race that, "we cannot deny that having one set of heritable characteristics–dark skin...can have profound psychological and social consequences...in societies..."(285) Despite the society in which the speaker of the poem lives, she to some degree turns the tables on the statement that Appiah makes in one of his essays. Clifton masters this through form, meter and precise word choice and the speaker is able to feel comfortable with her body and blackness in a society that rejects these "heritable characteristics."... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In the first three lines, the speaker tells us what her hips look like. "these hips are big hips"(1). She then states that there needs to be enough room for her hips to move. Right away just from the first line, when spoken aloud sounds rhythmic and imitates the swaying of a woman's hips side to side. In lines 4 and 5 she writes, "they don't fit into little/petty places." Perhaps we can examine this line from a societal perspective. If the speaker of the poem is living confined in a Caucasian American culture, perhaps she is choosing to emphasize the size of her hips to show that her hips are big enough to push through the mundane opinions of what white Americans perceive to be as ...

  • 6. Symbolism In Clifton's 'Homage To My Hip' The poem "Homage to my Hips" is a short but powerful poem. Although a "homage to my hips" is a short poem, it still gets its message across. Hips are generally used as a symbol of a women's body. Hips cannot be used as symbol for men because hips symbolize a women's ability to bear children. So technically women can do everything that men can do and even more. Clifton's "Homage to My Hips" talks about the separation of men and women based off societies expectations; so basically, she is proclaiming that women should have the same footing as men in society. The society that she had to endure, only portrayed that only a man can do certain task or jobs. The society believed that being a police officer, firemen, and construction worker or even working in general is only for men because that is what the media show the public. The media didn't really show women construction workers or women police officers but iy did show them at home raising their kids. That may seem rather harsh but that was the mind set ever since the being of mankind until the 21st century. As explained in "Wonder Women': Towards a Feminization of Heroism in the African Fiction: A Study of the Heroines in Second Class Citizen and God's Bits of Wood" awoman contributes to communal matters centered around singing, and dancing during ceremonies, hence their education is not considered worthwhile (Agho 3). In the past it was a worldwide belief that women shouldn't have the same rights and privileges as men. Society made men who treated there women equally were weak and unintelligent people. Clifton writes, "They don't fit into little petty places, these hips are free hips". (Clifton 782) Clifton's embraces her feminine features what she was born with even though she was born in a patriarchal society. She is proud of her hips because she used them so much in her poem as symbolism. She doesn't talk about her body or gender with any sign of regret. She is rejecting society's view of ideal women when she emphasizes her "big hips". She would be disappointed if she had small hips for her hips have shaped her. She directly goes against the rule that society have set out for her physically and psychologically. Clifton was a African American women before ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The writer develops an effective argument that examines the three key factors (location, size, and material) a group or agency should consider in memorializing an event or person and in creating a monument in order to "effectively pay homage to deep sacrifice or honor moments of great achievement." The sources selected illustrate a critical understanding of each source's position, allowing the student to convincingly engage the sources to facilitate the student's own argument.For example, in the first body paragraph, the student argues that it was a good decision to place the statue of Christopher Columbus in a serene location in order to invite reflection on the "important role Christopher Columbus had in American history" rather than "behind ...

  • 8. Similarities Between The Great Gatsby And Baz Luhrmann In honor of F. Scott Fitzgerald's book, Baz Luhrmann and Woody Allen's directed their own adaptation and homage of the book. Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby, an adaptation of Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby while Woody Allen's Homage only hinted at The Great Gatsby and other books and writers of that time. Although they both experienced great outcomes and are alike in many ways, several people believed that the music choices for each movie, Luhrmann's adaptation in particular, did not fit for the movie. This is because he used modern day jazz and music instead of only using the 1920s jazz. It worked for the movie in various ways just like the 1920s jazz music even though the music just so happened to come from modern times. The chosen music in the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 9. Homage To My Hips Lucille Clifton Body stereotypes and gender inequality are a part of society that both men and women are exposed to. We live in a society where people feel like they must meet the expectations to be accepted. The poem homage to my hips deals with the issue of body expectations. The poem is told from the point of view of a woman who does not listen to woman body expectations. She sets an example to woman to show how powerful she is even when she does not listen to the body stereotypes or expectations. homage to my hips was written by an African American woman named Lucille Clifton. She wrote the poem towards a woman audience since women are more likely to be criticized on their appearance. In the poem homage to my hips, Lucille Clifton sends the message ...

The speaker showed the audience how men fell in love with her when they saw her. She showed the audience that men fell in love with her because of her big hips. She compared a man to a spinning top and told the audience that because of her big hips she was able to "put them under a spell" and control men. The speaker did not hide the fact that she did not meet the body expectations. She wanted women not to be embarrassed about their bodies by showing them that she was still liked when she did not meet the body expectations. People should not think that because they do not meet any body expectations they will not be liked or accepted, but instead should embrace their natural selves. Another literary device that Lucille Clifton used in the poem was the literary device of repetition. By using repetition, Lucille Clifton emphasized the size of the hips and their power. Throughout the poem the speaker repeatedly said," These hips..., They want..., They need..., They do..., and They go..." An example of this was when the speaker said," ...these hips/ are free hips. / they don't like to be held back. / (6–7). In this quote, the speaker was saying that she is free, and that people cannot stop her from doing what she wants. The speaker tried to show women that they should not let anything stop them from doing what they want and that they should ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 10. Marge Piermy And Lucille Clifton's Objection To My Hips... Both "homage to my hips" by Lucille Clifton and "Barbie doll" by Marge Piercy are free verse and deliver different perspectives on the significance of woman's power. Clifton's poem empowers women to never be controlled by another person. Whereas Piercy's poem is a cautionary tale about a female giving their power to others and allowing an idea of perfection to create a self–conscious prisoner that wears them down until they voluntarily sacrifice their life. From our text we know that "Piercy engages with social myths that she believes inform the behavior of women". (Kelly 238) These poems were written respectively in 1973 and 1980 but continue to remain relevant 37+ years later or the equivalent of an entire generation. Clifton is a well–known feminist and is known for being against women's oppression. Clifton points out that women should not be suppressed by men in this poem. Women are equal and should be given the same opportunities. In Clifton's poem when she says "I have known them / to put a spell on a man and / spin him like a top!" (Clifton 13–15) she is really saying all women have the power and that all men can be manipulated by any woman. Women are more than being subordinate to men and raising children. Women must be empowered equally for any society to flourish. Men are not capable of giving birth to children, so without Women societies would cease to exist. Clifton's tone in "homage to my hips" is very confident. Clifton's speaker is confident, articulate, and honest with herself as a woman. She's bragging directly to the audience about how amazing and magical her hips are. They are something she is boastfully proud of and represent being a whole woman. In contrast, Marge Piercy's tone in "Barbie Doll" is sarcastic. The tone appears sarcastic because of the absurdity of a world in which a doll indoctrinates a 'girlchild' to a society's idea of what female beauty or perfection should be. Even in 2015, Barbie's core demographic is 3 to 6 year old's. ("Barbie Doll Statistics") Girls continue to be socialized at a young age when 'presented dolls' and accessories of ovens for cooking, irons for laundry and/or hair and lipstick. (Piercy 2).

  • 12. George Orwell : The Political Pen By George Orwell What sort of life and experiences could lead and inspire a man to write a story of a dystopian future that, over 50 years after its creation, feels like can become a reality in the not–too–distant future? Keith Ferrell shows the life of that man, Eric Blair (George Orwell), in the biography George Orwell: The Political Pen. Ferrell presents Blair in the biography as being rebellious and introverted yet considerate. Eric Blair is represented as being a rebellious person throughout his life because of his earlier youth and the effects it had. For instance, by the end of his time at St. Cyprian's, he had a realization: Eric Blair had, however, taken from what he could: a hatred for unquestioning obedience to authority, a loathing of rote learning and memorization for its own sake, and a sense of awareness that class and social position counted for a great deal in the world but that, for those not born to high class or position, there was not a great deal that could be done. (44) Blair was against many of the things that were commonplace in society and had a fond hatred for them, which was not common among people; Blair aligned more with socialist ideas than with the ones in place. Blair was against these standards and the way of things and wanted for there to be a greater sense of freedom in people based on these ideas.

Clifton explains to the readers that to be happy a person needs only one thing, confidence. Clifton's argument and view are evident throughout the entire poem. Clifton uses a confident speaker, a free form, and a clear tone to convey her opinion on society's view of beauty in a clear and concise way. The theme of "Homage to My Hips" is first expressed to the reader through the poem's speaker. The author made a smart decision in choosing a speaker who was confident and matter–a–fact about her opinion. From the beginning of the poem the speaker tells the readers, "these hips are big hips"(779). It is clear that the speaker is aware of how she looks, but she does not care what people think about her image. The speaker is taking a stand by explaining that "these hips" do not "fit into little/ pretty places" contrary to what society states(780). The speaker directly advocates the author's theme while discussing her hips. The interesting choice made by the author is to not give any description of the woman's physical appliance other than what her hips look like and how they act. Clifton is hinting at a deeper meaning.

  • 16. The Fall Of The Roman Empire Feudalism was a system developed in Medieval Europe, which structured European society. This system emerged after the fall of the Roman Empire. People needed protection and the feudal system was a way of protecting people in exchange for their services. Feudalism was developed around the 8th to 12th centuries, and it was based on premises between the two people. Feudalism was a way of survival where people exchange their services for land or protection of the lords. There was no money involved in the feudal society but rather homage, which was the acknowledgement of feudal alliance between to people. There were two types of homages, vassal homage and servile homage. Vassal homage was when a vassal, who was usually a knight or noble, exchanged their services in war for a fief from the lord. A fief was land or manor that came with several peasants. Servile homage, on the other hand, was when the lord gave protection to the serfs in exchange for their services of working the land. Although serfs were not salves, they did not have many rights. The origins of feudalism can be traced back to the Frankish kingdom of the 8th century, specifically the Carolingian dynasty in Western Europe (History of Feudalism). Charles Martel [what other kings] granted land to nobles to yield the income that is needed for armies. According to William Stubbs, fiefs were granted in the Frankish Kingdom, and at the same time, "vassal–lord bonds" were established. Before fiefs, benefices were the form ...

Proclaiming all that they can do and how her hips cannot be oppressed. Clifton uses formal elements such as repetition, shape, and enjambment in "Homage to My Hips" to push through the speaker's feminist declaration of reclaiming her body and exploring body love. The repetition of the words, 'hips', 'theses' and 'they' throughout the poem puts an emphasis on the power of the speaker's body and her declaration of body love. Clifton uses hips as a synecdoche for her entire body; a body that is constantly put up for scrutiny by the world. She begins the poem with the proclamation "these hips are big hips" (1) to make it clear that she doesn't have a body that fits societies' standards of what the perfect body is. Clifton only refers to the hips in the poem as 'these hips' or 'they' to create dissociation from her. She never once uses personal pronouns in the poem, except at the end when she says "i have known them/ to put a spell on a man and/ spin him like a top!" (13–15). She does this to show that society has taught her that her body doesn't belong to her and the only time she will be able to be remotely associated with it, is when she is being considered a temptress. She and every other female have been taught that their body size must be small and will always be public property for every man that walks their way. Clifton reclaims her hips by making statements of her hips powers "they don't fit into little/ petty places. these hips/ are free hips." (4–6). Even though she never claims her hips as her own, she is still slowly taking them back from society. In this part of the poem, she is saying society... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

In Piercy's biography says, "Her description of the girlchild in 'Barbie Doll' is a not–so–thinly–veiled reference to herself. Piercy, however, did not sacrifice herself to patriarchy's image of what an "ideal" woman should be; rather, she made herself into a crusader for women's rights" ("Barbie Doll" 33). The quote helps me to understand Piercy's views for this poem.

A show such as The Bachelor does not represent real women. The media tries to portrait a perfect looking woman, which majorities are white on the show.

Female viewers see an array of personas, identifying with some and rejecting others, as they calibrate what kind of woman succeeds in a world where appearance and personality still powerfully determine a woman's fate" (para. 8).

The researchers looked for a connection between the hip hop genre and how certain artist promote feminism throughout their songs.

There are four distinct types of identification of women throughout the lyrics of the hip hop songs which are, "mammy, matriarch, sexual siren, and welfare mother or queen," (Tyree et al., 2015, pp. 59). Each of these identifications contribute to the type of song being sang, such as mammy's which are respectable and loyal women and matriarchs are women who are independent and hold a family together.

  • 23. Analysis Of Las Meninas ( Maids Of Honor, By Diego Velazquez Las Meninas (Maids of Honor) by Diego Velazquez, is a Bourque style Spanish painting from the 1700's, which is known as Velazquez's masterpiece as an artist and his life as a court painter. Some say Las Meninas is, "This work, one of the most perfect fac–similes of nature that art has ever produced, and which Girodano called la teologia de la pintura, is among the latest productions of the artist" (Curtis 14). Velazquez's masterpiece was so highly endorsed by many, thus is why Las Meninas was referenced as the la teologia de la pintura, also known as the theology of the painting, which is a great honor to receive. The painting portrays the royal family's daughter and her servants posing for what looks to be, Diego painting a portrait on a large canvas. However, a reflection of a mirror in the background shows the royal parents, King Philip IV of Spain and his Queen Mariana watches over Velazquez as he works, thus gives off the illusion that they are looking at this from outside the painted area (audience view). According to Albert Fredrick Calvert, "Velazquez painted the scene for us to view as it must have appeared to the royal parents. With them we gaze at the sunlight –flooded space where the child drama is enacted" (Calvert 165). While it has been highly questioned throughout the years, whether the portrayal of the portrait is of the royal daughter and her servants or if it is a portrait of the royal parent's reflection, thus is what makes this painting one of Velazquez's greatest pieces of work. Diego's vision for this masterpiece was to show what his life and career has become as a celebrated artist, therefore holding court by paying homage to himself and the royal family by adding himself into the family portrait. A major part of the success of Las Meninas and the painting itself, is the way Velazquez could give off light throughout the room, which makes the painting give off much more of a natural light. It is said that the use of light "The lighting of the scene by four windows on the right, and a door in the rear, unusual difficulties over which the painter has triumph with remarkable genius" (Curtis 14).

  • 26. Analysis Of George Orwell 's ' The Road ' In The Road to Wigan Pier (1937), Orwell tries out his own understanding of socialism, with striking phrasing: "We've got to fight for justice and liberty. And socialism does mean justice and liberty, when the nonsense is stripped off it." He further declares that "the real socialist is one who wishes–not merely conceives it as desirable but actively wishes–to see tyranny overthrown" (Orwell, The Road 76). One senses here that the point is not the ultimate triumph of a particular doctrine or party, but the triumph of human dignity. This triumph can be achieved by war and revolution. Orwell wrote to Cyril Connolly, telling him: "I have seen wonderful things and at last really believe in Socialism, which I never did before" (Orwell, Collected Essays 269). Although it was clear that he was at least intellectually committed to socialism, it was Spain that gave his socialism an emotional Bedrock and dictated the course his socialism would take. In his preface to the Ukrainian edition of Animal Farm he wrote: Nothing has contributed so much to the corruption of the original idea of Socialism as the belief that Russia is a Socialist country and that every act of its rulers must be excused, if not imitated. And so for the past ten years I have been convinced that the destruction of the Soviet myth was essential if we wanted a revival of the Socialist movement (Orwell, Preface 339).

During the passage, Smith desperately tries to escape his punishment. Through the use of rhetorical devices such as repetition, imagery, and details, the tone of urgency is revealed In the excerpt, Orwell uses the rhetorical device of repetition in order to create suspense. For example, right before the rats are going to attack, Winston says, "'Do it to Julia! Do it to Julia! Not me! Julia! I don't care what you do to her. Tear her face off, strip her to the bones. Not me! Julia! Not me!'" The repetitive screams for help from Winston reveals the tone as he is frantically begging for mercy. Another example of repetition is used is when Orwell writes, "To think, to think, even with a split second left––to think was the only hope" This reveals the tone as it reveals Winston only has a split second to save himself from the rats, and he must be able to think fast in order to do it....

In addition, another example is when the book says "Winston heard a succession of shrill cries which appeared to be occurring in the air above his head. But he fought furiously against his panic."

  • 30. Relationship between Art and Technology in 1960s Spurred on by exhibitions, industry sponsorship and education programmes, the artists of the 1960s began to grapple with the space age. The launch of Sputnik in 1957 prompted a new interest in the world of the machine, yet the artistic approach to technology differed from the Futurist and Constructivist precedent. Technology did not hold utopian potential; rather the artists of the 1960s adopted varied approaches, ranging from sheer admiration to fearful pessimism. However, by the end of the 1960s technology became closely associated with the American war effort. The negativity that developed in response resulted in the technological work of artists such as Jean Tinguely and Robert Rauschenberg being pushed aside in favour of Conceptualism. Jean Tinguely's Homage to New York (1960) and Robert Rauschenberg's Soundings (1968) will be used to explore how these particular artists responded to the rising technology, and the extent to which artist and scientist collaborated. The technological works of Tinguely can be classified as kinetic due to their incorporation of mechanical movement. For Pontus HultГ©n the inclusion of movement implied a 'complete rejection of the holy values of art', the traditional characteristics of sculpture were abandoned and kineticism projected sculpture onto a different course.

Anything men can do women can do the same, even better. Lucille Clifton's "Homage to My Hips" rebuts the division of labor mechanism instilled in our society that isn't politically correct; thereby taking a powerful stance in her confident belief that woman can do the same as men.

In "The Construction of Femininity, Race and Sexuality", the term feminist has a broader reach, it describes a range of self determination and equality (Tyree 2). Being an African American feminist in her time period was much more difficult than today. She had to face ignorant minds and fight for her belief. Lucille Clifton praises her body that has made her independent. She believes the only thing that sets a man off from a woman is her hips. She believed that women should have the same rights as men, her hips should have not been held back. Women are capable of performing the same tasks. Women are emotionally stronger than men as well. Women were granted with a gift that no man could ever do, childbearing. Many look at it as not a grand thing, but in fact the world is dependent on a woman. The speaker states that "these hips are magic hips" (12) to show how they could help her get certain things from a male. Clifton writes, "i have known them to put a spell on a man and spin him like a top" (13–15) to display how her hips could possible attract a lover. Clifton strongly writes, "They go where they want to go" emphasizing that a female should be able to live her dreams and aspirations. She bestows "homage" to her hips for giving her individuality. Without individuality, the world would be bland. We wouldn't be progressing as a community technology wise and socially. When I was a ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 32. The Writings Of Olaudah Equiano And Elizabeth Keckley Autobiographical Similarities The writings of Olaudah Equiano and Elizabeth Keckley are of the highest admiration. As they spoke on their experiences with an intoxicating mixture of vibrancy and precision, they allowed the reader to come along for the journey without getting lost. Most commendable, is that the writers were able to leave subtle hints that would foreshadow their fortunes meticulously in efforts to keep the readers engaged. There is a vital point to highlight from the workings of both authors – how humble and vulnerable their writings maintained as they were written during the peak of their success. Therefore, the common theme is how they foreshadow their success without neglecting to pay homage to where they came from. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In her first chapter appropriately named "Where I was Born", Keckley mentions that she was not only born a slave but refers to slavery in a unique way that offers a hint of foreshadowing. She mentions "I was but a child myself – only four years old – but then I had been raised in a hardy school – had been taught to rely upon myself, and to prepare myself to render assistance to others" (Gates Jr. & Smith, 311). What is so profound about that statement is that hardy school was a double entendre used to refer to slavery. Hence, the idea that slavery taught her independence which she carried with her throughout her life. As it pertains to her writing, slavery also equipped her with the poise she presented both in her demeanor and in her work as a renowned seamstress. Another detail that Equiano incorporated within his writing, is the meaning of his name. As he says in the text "I was named Olaudah, which, in our language, signifies vicissitude or fortune also, one favoured, and having a loud voice and well spoken" (Gates Jr. & Smith 121). Equiano was a man who was the youngest born son to village leaders who owned slaves, became a captive of slavery himself, briefly worked in the fields as a slave before following his master overseas and ultimately buying his own freedom. What's most profound throughout that, is the fact that he used his voice to help others who are stuck where he was able to break free. PBS has an article where ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 33. Ever Since Movies Had Started Becoming Popular, Film... Ever since movies had started becoming popular, film adaptations have failed to live up to their book counterparts. Although there are exceptions, both critics and the general audience alike have given film adaptations the cold shoulder. A Clockwork Orange is an exception. Originally published as a novel by Anthony Burgess in 1962, A Clockwork Orange sets out to show the mind and workings of an extremely violent teenager in a futuristic dystopian society. Director, producer, and screenwriter, Stanley Kubrick's 1971 interpretation of the book has been critically acclaimed as one of the best film adaptations to date.

Norman perfectly describes this film in a whole. While this film being overly graphic, its story and actions within the film keep the audience wanting to see more, regardless of how shocking it is. As the film progresses, it seems to just continue with its graphic depictions. For example, they trick a woman and her husband into letting them into their home. Once inside, they tie a ball over mouths to prevent screaming. Right after, Alex and his gang rip her clothes off, in which her husband naturally reacts to try and prevent it. Alex acknowledges him and essentially humiliates the man and the gang proceeds to rape her to death. This scene is graphically depicted to the core. It is easy to see why Time Magazine ranked it in its, "Top 10 Ridiculously Violent Movies." Time Magazine described the movies as, "the primal brutishness of man (Time Magazine). With its effective portrayal of this scenes, we see the film become critically acclaimed as one of the best. Not only does this follow the book almost identically, but it creates a vivid image of each graphic scene for the audience. Its interpretation of the graphic scenes from the book to film has made it a great film, which many film adaptations fail to do. The novel relies heavily on the symbolism music has to Alex; fortunately we see this come to life in the film. Throughout the film we hear classical music, specifically louder when an ultra–violent ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 34. Homage to Catalonia George Orwell Homage To Catalonia Published by Harvest books (New York) in June 1969,264 pgs Book Review of Homage to Catalonia George Orwell, noted writer and journalist, arrived in Barcelona, Spain in late 1936 to cover the fight against fascism. Being an avid fan of socialism, he was amazed to see the small glimpse of socialism in action. He was intrigued to say the least, of the classless society he observed there. Barcelona, Spain at this time was held under Anarchist control, and as such most of the old class society rituals were abandoned: tipping, titles, and the old divisions between rich and poor were practically gone. Everyone was equal in this new society, and most of the rich aristocrats had either fled or went into... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Later after 115 days on the frontlines, Orwell receives a leave to return to Barcelona. Upon arriving in Barcelona he is struck by the changes that have occurred. On the streets he once again heard titles of servile nature being spewed from one persons mouth to another, the rich and poor clearly reappearing, and the resemblance of a class society slowly drifting back into view. Later he describes his sadness after getting dragged into street fighting caused by infighting between the communists and various anarchist factions, mostly caused by communistic led police trying to seize a telephone exchange held by anarchists in Barcelona. Finally after escaping the street fighting, he returns to the front for a short time until being shot through the throat by enemy sniper fire, which lands him in various hospitals until he is finally declared medically unfit to fight. After being declared unfit to fight, Orwell's real problems begin. Returning to Barcelona to get his military discharge papers stamped, he finds that his ignorance of joining the first anti–fascist militia he came across begins to haunt him. In Barcelona, his former unit the P.O.U.M has been fully suppressed and has sadly become the political scapegoat of Communist propaganda and all former P.O.U.M members were being rounded up and arrested. He laments at the sights of how his former comrades were being treated, but has no time to do much for them, because he is on the run as well. Finally ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 35. Analysis Of ' Ezra Pound 's ' Ezra Pound's (1885–1972) Homage to Sextus Propertius has stirred controversies after its first publication in Harriet Monroe's Poetry magazine in March 1919. The poem is consisted of twelve sections and it was based on Propertius, a great Latin elegiac poet who lived during the first century. Pound's poem provides a new interpretation of Propertius that differs from his predecessors. Pound finds a voice to critique the corrupted politics of his time.

Such differing views over the poem have been, for quite long, the source of contention in the academic circles. This paper, therefore, discusses the views of the Classicists and... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The perception of the poem continued raveling to other classicists. L.P. Wilkinson, a Cambridge classicist, harshly criticized the poem and he concluded that "Homage to Sextus Propertius purged of the perversities of Ezra Pound (viii). Similarly, Professor Gilbert Highet wrote in Horizon magazine that Homage was "an insult both to poetry and to scholarship, and to common sense (viii). Highet accused Pound of "bad taste" and a disgusting misinterpretation of Propertius. Later, Robert Graves, a classical translator, attacked Pound's inaccuracies in the poem. In the Times Literary Supplement, he published a comical short play called Dr. Syntax and Mr. Pound mocking Pound's ignorance of Latin and the radical distortion he made and his claim of producing a free–verse translation of the poem. He concluded that Pound has no respect for Propertius and that he should learn the moral principles in translation, a reference to his article published in 1965. And finally, Robert Nicholas, a Gregorian poet, who echoed Hale's review over Pound's mistranslation of Propertius.

  • 36. Non Diegetic Elements In Stranger Things One of the more common techniques Stranger Things used to create an Homage to Steven Spielberg was non–Diegetic sound. For example, the background music gave a sad and longing but wondrous tone to the scene where Elliot and his siblings figure out ET can move things with his mind. It makes the audience feel sorry for him, because he is using his powers to show how he misses home, and it makes the thought that he doesn't belong here stay fresh in the audience's brains. As for Stranger Things, an example of non–diegetic sound is when the monster comes, which creates suspenseful tones building up to the moment when the monster takes Will. The music makes the audience about how whatever took Will Byers didn't belong there. There is also eerie music ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

How Does George Orwell Use Of Authoritarianism The purpose of this investigation is to examine George Orwell's use of authoritarianism through his works of 1984, Animal Farm, and Homage to Catalonia from analyzing the question, "To what extent does the portrayal of authoritarianism change?" This essay focuses on investigating three of his works, each of which present a unique society where authoritarianism is portrayed based on Orwell's own experiences. 1984 and Animal Farm serve as a reflection of Orwell's experiences in the Spanish Civil War in 1936, and of his perspectives on right–wing and left–wing.

  • 39. King Kong Comparison The original King Kong (1933) was fairly different from the new 2005 version. In the new version, Kong was much more humanized. For example, in the end when Kong falls off of the building and dies, it is heartbreaking. But in the original, there is a sense of relief when Kong finally dies, after terrorizing New York City and especially Ann. Kong and Ann share a more profound bond in the newerfilm. That is shown when Kong is finished fighting the three Tyrannosaurus Rex, she willfully goes with him, after he saves her. Also, towards the end you see Kong and Ann having fun playing on the ice back in New York. Ann wasn't afraid of Kong in the remake. One of the biggest differences between the 2005 and the 1933 versions were the characters. Ann, in the newer King Kong movie, had much more character. We were able to see the back story of her dancing career and how talented she was. Also, Carl Denham was vastly different. In the original movie he was depicted as this great movie maker, but in the newer movie he is characterized as a sleazy guy; overall, he isn't a very good person. For example, he trapped Driscoll on the boat after he refused to write the rest of the script before they left. Jack Driscoll, in the 2005 rendition is no ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
