Similarities Between Salem Witch Trials And Mccarthyism
McCarthyism and the Salem Witch Trials
McCarthyism and the Salem Witch Trials are notorious events in American History. Although they weren't contemporary, it is undeniable that they are
related. McCarthyism was from about 1950 to 1954, or when World War 2 had finished and the Cold War was "heating up." There was anxiety in
countries all over the world and people were beginning to panic. First term senator from Wisconsin, Joseph McCarthy, did nothing to comfort the
nation. In February of 1950, Joseph McCarthy presented a speech that claimed he had a list of 205 communists in the State Department (History.com).

At the beginning of McCarthy's second term as senator, he was put in charge of the Committee on Government Operations, which permitted him to
expand his investigation. Despite the absence of proof of subversion, more than 2,000 government employees were jobless due to McCarthy's
conjecture (History.com). Not only did McCarthy's erratic actions cause complications in the government, it ruined relations within the citizens. Trust
was nonexistent and everything was second–guessed. Stress was more of a problem than before and the outcome was people were hopeless.
McCarthyism was one of the most muddled movements in American history, but it was not the only movement that divided us from one another. The
Salem Witch Trials were another one of America's plights that triggered a parting in society. McCarthyism and the Salem Witch Trials are
undoubtedly alike in a couple ways. During both of these events, select actions were intolerable. In the McCarthyism era, people were accused of
subversion, or communist actions. Being accused of subversion was looked at not much differently than being a terrorist. You were put on trial which
had the potential to land you in prison. In 1692, the time of the Salem Witch Trials, people were accused

He did all of this simply because they refused to convert to his violent and evil faith and called it just. Here is a excerpt from the biography of
Muhammad ,which has been accepted world wide as true but those who practice the faith. When the tribe of . . . Quraiza was ready to accept Sad's
judgment, Allah's Apostle sent for Sad who was near to him. Sad came, riding a donkey and when he came near, Allah's Apostle said (to the Ansar)
[or Helpers], "Stand up for your leader." Then Sad came and sat beside Allah's Apostle who said to him. "These people are ready to accept your
judgment." Sad said, "I give the judgment that their warriors should be killed and their children and women should be taken as prisoners." The
Prophet then remarked, "O Sad! You have judged amongst them with (or similar to) the judgment of the King Allah." Muhammad inspired his men to
make war in the name of Islam by looting , killing , beheadings, and forcing innocents into slavery. And if the Quran is to be believed, this is the man
all Muslims are supposed to emulate? Long after Muhammad 's eventual death, Muslims have continued his jihad ( holy war ) for hundreds of
thousands of years. Only being checked by the ability of native non Muslims to protect themselves. One example of this was the defeat of the Umayyad

Tough Princess Conventions
The Tough Princess by Waddell is a children's book that can be considered part of the fairy tale genre, shown through its inclusion of stereotypical
conventions. It can also be classified as a fractured fairy tale – which is a tale that has been retold or created in order to give a different view on the
original plot. The original review of the book by Child Education, suggests that the book "breaks all the conventions of the traditional fairy tale and is
all the more fun for that". Within this essay, I will be discussing to which degree this is accurate, in terms of subverting all of the conventions and
whether the reasoning behind he subversion is simply for comedic effect, or not.

The Tough Princess was created in 1986, and this means that certain allowances can be made for a partial, rather than full, subversion on the

part of gendered layering in cultural stories and influencing perpetuating cultural norms. His work is advancement on Rice's (2000:135), who
suggested that fairy stories provide a script for acceptable forms of feminine and masculine behaviour. The way in which fairy tales embed appropriate
gender behaviours within their narrative structures, masks the fact that fairy tales are created and produced through the dominant discourse (Parsons

Gender Role Reversal? Conventional sexual normative values for males typically include an emphasis of attributes that include self–reliance,
dominance, assertion, and a healthy appetite for heterosexual behavior. By contrast, those that apply to females usually include a submissiveness and
dependency that is all too oftentimes easily exploited by men. In this respect, the body of literature analyzed within this paper––Sandra Cisneros' "Bien
Pretty" and "Anguiano Religious Articles" in Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories, as well as Junot Diaz's "Drown" and "Aguantando"––is
demonstrative of these truths as an examination of the characterizations and storylines readily demonstrates. However, what is most noteworthy about
Cisneros and Diaz's tales is that these authors also have a penchant for deliberately subverting the typical gender roles associated with each sex,
particular those of male characters. In these instances, male characters forsake their traditional assertiveness and dominance and become objectified in
ways that are usually reserved for female characters and women in general. In these instances, the authors present a fascinating dichotomy that appears
incongruent in its depiction of manhood, for the simple fact that these portraits of male characters combine conventional male attributes with an
objectification that is usually reserved for women. Both Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories and Drown contrast conventional images of male

US foreign policy towards Nicaragua was one built upon the idea that the US came first. This policy has a long history in South America, especially

military interventions lead to US occupation in 1909, 1912, and 1927. In each of these cases the United States sought to uphold or aid more

Gender Trouble: Feminism And The Subversion Of Identity
'Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity' was written by the philosopher Judith Butler. Butler argues that gender is a kind of
improvised performance. Butler's work is influential in women's studies, feminism, and lesbian and gay studies. Butler's ideas about gender came to be
foundational to queer theory and the advancing of dissident sexual practices during the 1990s. Butler starts 'gender Trouble' by dismissing feminist
theory claims in the past about there only being one, central identity for women. She says that factors such as class, race, and even sexuality complicate
the idea of a blanket term like Women or Woman. Butler says "For feminist theory, the development of a language that fully or adequately represents...

Having the focus on women representation or as the subject of feminist could be problematic because the term is hard to define. Not all people
identify as a woman, but their sex is identified as female, and what it means to be a woman can change depending on multiple factors like race, class,
sexuality, and location. For those that are not cis–gendered and identify with a different gender have to deal with being slighted by those that do.
Butler is suggesting if we recognize all genders and gender identities within the feminist movement it will allow gender non–conforming individuals to
have a safe space to grow and develop healthily. This made me think of Audre Lorde's argument where she says, "It is a particular academic
arrogance to assume any discussion of feminist theory without examining our many differences, and without a significant input from poor women,
Black and Third World women, and lesbians." (Lorde, 1984, pg. 110) Butler is saying that gender and sex are determined differently depending on the
cultural norms of a certain place, and that the interpretation will also be impacted by other factors like race and class. These other factors along with
gender and sex will influence someone's political

The King Who Was Well Bred Rose And Went To Meet Her Analysis
Consider the word "see" in line 606, as Lanval's love enters the room she is immediately noticed. This prompt response to her entrance straightaway
reveals the implications of her beauty and the importance it has on Lanval's trial along with the male relation the females in this time period. Women
are objectified to a certain extent yet also essential to the inner workings of society. This can also be observed in the context of this passage due to the
fact that the queen made the accusations against Lanval and though they were lies the extensive reach of her authority is notable. Also consider the
line 607 "The king who was well bred rose and went to meet her" (166). This line directly relates aspects of the chivalric code to a woman's beauty due

While at the same time as exemplifying masculinity through chivalry this line also begins the subversion of gender roles by putting the woman in the
more dominant position – she is now in control of this situation. In the following line it is stated that "all the others honored her and offered to serve
her" (166). The use of the verbs honor and offer are direct effects of the way they "see" her which continues to implicate the importance of her beauty
while also putting her in a dominant role. This is emphasized once again in lines 611–612 "When they had looked at her well, when they greatly
praised her beauty" (166). This is another instance in which a verb, "praised," is a direct result of seeing her beauty. This direct relation between such
verbs and her presence helps to demonstrate her force and impact as a woman along with her characterization as a sovereign being. In lines 613–614 it

Sex Trafficking In Women
Rubin's theory is used in this work to state the power struggle of the findom. Since the findom can be placed in this vague status, it can be located in
Rubin's theory of an imaginary line between good and bad sex, titled "the struggle over where to draw the line" (Figure 2). Rubin points out that the
line seemingly stands between sexual order and chaos; however, some behavior is considered vague near the border – for example, the coupled and
monogamous homosexuality (Rubin, 1993: 14–15). Therefore, the findom can be placed in the "major area of contest" in the figure since it can be
"good" and "bad" simultaneously.
(Figure 2.)
As Rubin (1993) states, the sex hierarchy not only functions for societies to appraise the value of sex but also unequally rewards individuals in
different levels of the hierarchy. Each individual receives different power benefits in social position according to his/her sexual position. Sexuality,

Butler says the formulation of gender trouble is built on Rubin's theory The Traffic in Women (1975), which describes how "normative sexuality
fortifies normative gender" and how "sexual practice has the power to destabilize gender" (Butler, 1999: xi). As if sexual practice has the power to
destabilize gender, sexual behavior has the power to challenge gender normativity. The statement, in this research, is linked to Jackson's (1995)
suggestion that heterosexuality is neither fixed nor unchanging. The heterosexual normativity can be destabilised through sexual practices, and the
constraints can be challenged through the materiality of the findom. The findom here is considered as a medium or a signifier to provide new
signification of the "re–articulation" of desire, pleasure, and heterosexuality. This is therefore the possibility of subversion of the findom through

Art Of Scapegoating Essay
The concept of scapegoating has been around almost as long as human beings. We have proof from as far back as the time of the ancient Israelites that
human societies would use ritualistic sacrifice of goats to absolve the people of their sins and bring that society together. And although the ritual of
scapegoating uses an actual goat for sacrifice, the act of scapegoating can utilize any third party as a 'sacrifice' to absorb the guilt of others. A similar
concept to scapegoating is the idea of the Suffering Servant as first described in the Book of Isaiah. The Suffering Servant willingly atones for the
sins of others and suffers the punishment in their stead. The original Suffering Servant was the people of Israel who were living in exile ... Show more

Perhaps the most comprehensive essay on the origins and effects of scapegoating was written by RenГ© Girard. Girard described a cycle of
rivalry between two parties where one person's achievement or desire of something creates envy and competition between others who become
jealous and also begin to desire these things. This rivalry creates ever growing tension and conflict between these people whose desires only
increase over time. The increasing animosity inevitably leads to an outbreak of violence and chaos, where the only way of stopping the hostility
is through the sacrifice of a (semi) innocent third party who takes all of the blame, the scapegoat. The third party is an unwilling victim, and they
must be believed to be completely guilty for the scapegoat effect to take place: "A scapegoat effect that can be acknowledged as such by the
scapegoaters is no longer effective, it is no longer a scapegoat effect" (Girard, 1996, p. 14). After the scapegoat, has been sacrificed the warring
people are reunited and peace returns. This peace is only fleeting, however, as mimetic cycle of rivalry will soon begin again and lead to conflict once
more. This is why ritualistic scapegoating sacrifices must be repeated–the scapegoat effect is never

Mass Media, Subversions, And Human Thinking
Do People have free will to decide what they need in this lifetime or does rhetoric decide for mankind? In fact, rhetoric for thousands of years has been
the culprit behind human thinking when it comes to purchasing goods. According, to Aristotle rhetoric, is "the art of persuasion", that doesn't follow a
set of rules like other disciplines of the Arts. The definitions of rhetoric aren't confined, but open to change when a spectator interprets the message. All
things considered, the roles of mass media, subversions, and analyzing a commercial affect the human mind while using rhetoric. In other words, mass

Drag Queen Analysis
Drag queens have spent years performing for themselves and for many other people. Their shows today are a way to express themselves and make
people question what they know about gender and sexuality. Rupp and Taylor in their book, "Drag Queens at the 801 Cabaret" discuss this subject in
detail, calling their performances a form of protest. They question the roles that society has put them into, and in turn provoke their audiences to
question these things, such as gender and sexuality. This type of social protest is called "subversion." Through this book, we can more specifically
look at two types of subversion that played a major role in the 801 drag queen's performances. The first, and most obvious, is the idea of masculinity
versus femininity, and how the Queens use different techniques to break free from the traditional way of thinking about these concepts. The second is
the overt way that the Queens portray sex and sexuality, in ways that are impossible for the audience to ignore. Both these types of subversion have an
overarching theme of crossing boundaries, whether over the division of the gender binary, or the limits of what is socially acceptable to talk about
regarding sex. Drag queens envelop the audience and take many of them out of their comfort zone.

John Donne And Cecile Day Lewis
Since definition of love and its representation varies person to person and in the past it has already been represented in various ways, which leads one
to presume that language is insufficient to represent love. However, it is evident that the language has proved to be sufficient enough to not only
analyze, dissect and explain the feelings of love from so many angles including biologically. Subversions of conventions of love is not the matter of
insufficiency of language but a matter of how a poet experiences love or how a poet chooses to express those experiences.
It is mainly the poet's era and life experiences that dictate how he/she represents love. Thomas Wyatt, John Donne and Cecile Day Lewis are good
examples of how life experiences can determine the poets' divergence of traditional courtly and pastoral love. An abreast analysis of the above poets'
lives and their works allow us to draw parallels between their life experiences and their subversions of conventions of love.

and women she had seen marry...how she had contentedly pursued her own lone quite path – for him." (p.82) When we love someone, we tend to think
often about the person we have feelings for. He is cheating on his wife because he is fantasizing about Racheal instead of his current wife. Later, his

Rather than saving her from accidentally poisoning, Stephen decided to do nothing but watch her fall into her death. This is cheating because he would

Pina Bausch's Sacre de Printemps is a performance that communicates the story of a ritual and human sacrifice. The performance begins with a large
group of women dancing around a red cloth. Their movements are frantic, sharp, and aggressive and they both move in unison and break off into
canon. Later on in the piece, a group of men join the women and they dance in separate groups, come together and form circles, and finally break off
into pairs. When the men enter the performance, a ritual begins that involves the selection of one female for sacrificial purposes. The men select this
woman, she changes into a red dress, and all the members of the cast look on as she dances until she falls to the ground dead. Throughout the piece,
there are instances of subversion and instances of conformity to traditional gender roles in dance. The performance as a whole at times challenges
traditional expectations of women and at others conforms to them. The movement and costumes convey initial potential for the subversion of male
dominance that ends up confirming and upholding traditional roles and expectations of gender in dance. The dancers' movements throughout the

Analysis Of ' Too Big For Broadway '
Kander and Ebb took a great risk in using the framework of a minstrel show to tell the story in their musical The Scottsboro Boys. Various sources
argue that the use of the minstrel show in Kander and Ebb's The Scottsboro Boys hinders the audiences experience and undermines the importance of
this trial. This argument is one of many and goes to show that Kander and Ebb took many risks in using the minstrel show to tell the story of the
Scottsboro Boys. Other sources argue that the humor and stereotypes of the minstrel show perpetuate the boys' lack of individuality. In the article, "Too
big for Broadway?:
The limits of historical and theatrical empathy in Parade and The Scottsboro Boys," it is argued that this lack of characterization
"makes it feel as though 'the Boys' are being victimized, not by American racism, but by Kander and Ebb" (Stahl 76). With all of the dangers involved
in the use of this racist form, it is understandable how the intention of the minstrel show can be misconstrued. Kander and Ebb incorporate many
aspects of the minstrel show such as comedy and stereotyping to create a contrast with the moments when the characters rebel against the minstrel

movement and dancing of the von Trapp family. The setting of the film is Salzburg, Austria in 1938 immediately following the start of German
occupation due to the Anschluss. Ultimately, the reprise of "So Long, Farewell" in The Sound of Music subverts governmental authority over war by
portraying a movement shift from being restricted and uniform to running away with hope of freedom. The reprise of "So Long, Farewell" features

As this pattern progresses, the children escaping the stage show more and more freedom of movement. The last set of two sibling is two of the oldest
daughters who, right before their exit, make a small leap. This is the first time that enough excitement is shown that any of the family members
actually leave the stage surface. At this point in the number, only the two adults and the youngest child are left on stage. The youngest von Trapp is
ushered off stage to join the others before Maria and Captain calmly walk off stage, embracing each other.
The most obvious subversion of war authority belongs to the setting of the movie–1938 in Salzburg, Austria, the year in which Germanic Nazi power
took over Austria. In March of 1938, "Austria was the first victim of Hitler's policy of aggression. The German domination of that country (the
so–called Anschluss) heralded the beginning of a diplomatic demarche" (Clute VII). Specifics as to how this happened include a conspired alliance
between Austrian Nazis and German Nazis who infiltrated their power into Austrian government. The timeline of events began when Austrian
Chancellor Kurt von Schuschnigg met with Adolf Hitler after learning of the conspiracy. Schuschnigg's intention from this meeting was to reassert
dominance and independence, but instead was pressured into electing Austrian Nazis to the cabinet. On March

Essay Comparing The Korean War And Mccarthyism
Despite their historical hostility towards each other, the United States and the Soviet Union were allies during World War II. However, it was in the
decades following the end of the war war that tension between these two former allies grew to the point where their rivalry became significantly
evident. Many factors influenced relations between the Americans and Soviets. Nonetheless, it was the Korean War and McCarthyism that truly
influenced negativity in their already broken relationship and made their rivalry the long and dangerous affair it was.

Not only were these two nations supporting opposing sides during the Korean War, but the war intensified America's anxiety about communism. There
were Americans dying in Korea fighting against a communist movement. All the while, back at home, more Americans were losing their jobs or even
being executed due to claims made against them by anti–communist movements. And, those who weren't getting accused of being communists,
campaigned with furor against "commies" or supported McCarthy in his investigations of alleged subversion in many areas of government. Thus, had it
not been for the Soviet support of communist North Korea in the Korean War, Josef Stalin would not have become the face of communism and anxiety
about domestic subversion in the United States would have increased to level it did. Had American fear of subversion not reached the level of hysteria
it did, McCarthyism would not have become as popular and Joseph McCarthy would've simply been considered a fool. In other words, the Korean War

Frankenstein And The Subversion Of The Masculine Voice
The Importance of Women
Mary Shelley was a strong advocate for women's rights so it is surprising that her first novel consists of 3 male narrators. James P. Davis tries to
answer this question as he hypothesised different theories surrounding the lack of strong females or females at all for that matter in his essay
Frankenstein and the Subversion of the Masculine Voice.
The masculine point of view from which this story is told makes the women mentioned in this story static characters. Furthermore it is suggested by
Davis that both Frankenstein and his monster have harsh feelings regarding women. Though it seems that both Frankenstein and the monster long for a

Frankenstein fears woman by explaining how he refuses to create his monster a female friend because he assumes females capacity of evil is greater
than males. Davis also concludes that Frankenstein fears the female's ability create new life saying, "The possibility that his female monster might
reproduce moves Victor to destroy her" (Davis 311). Not only Frankenstein has harsh assumptions about women but the monster does as well. After the
monster kills William he frames Justine for the murder saying, "Should she Justine awake, and see me, and curse me, and denounce the murderer?
Thus she would assuredly act, if her darkened eyes opened, and she beheld me. The thought was madness; it stirred the fiend within me – not I, but shh
shall suffer: the murder I have committed because I am for ever robbed of all that she could give me, she shall atone. The crime bad its source in her:
be hers the punishment!" (Shelley 143–44)
Davis interprets this quote as saying that the monster assumes that Justine is a bad person and deserves this punishment for what he has done. The
monster assumes that women are there to provide for him and he assumes that she is unwilling to do so even though she has not yet been tested in that
position. (James P.

Gender Trouble By Judith Butler
INTRO
Judith Butler, the author of Gender Trouble (1990), is an American philosopher who was born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1956.
A feminist (that is, a participant in the cultural, political, and theoretical currents surrounding the advocacy of the rights of women), she has published
more than a dozen books and has been active in debates ranging from lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transsexual rights to Middle Eastern politics. She
works on identity issues and prejudice against minorities, having personal experience of both. Her mother lost her Hungarian family in the Nazi
Holocaust during World War II, and, as a lesbian, Butler has herself experienced discrimination. She has spoken about the difficulty of coming out as a

Butler intervened in these debates by questioning the very idea of stable gender identity.
THE ANSWER
"No political revolution is possible without a radical shift in one's notion of the possible and the real."
Judith Butler, Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity
Judith Butler argues that gender becomes ВґrealВґ by a person unconsciously acting in ways that are accepted to be "masculine" or "feminine" and
that even biological sex is a product of culture.
Gender is imposed through patterns of thought in the society, but history shows that identities have changed over time, then it is impossible to say that
they are fixed and eternal.
Gender Trouble is an original and radical text that employs for political ends the analytical methods of poststructuralist theory (and its challenge to
categories and ideas of objective truth).
IDEAS
"Because there is neither an 'essence' that gender expresses or externalizes nor an objective ideal to which gender aspires, and because gender is not a

Jack Zipes Fairy Tales And The Art Of Subversion
The tradition of storytelling is as old as civilization itself. Man has always been fond of adventures and legends. Tales from epics have been sung by
bards in all parts of the world. The Iliad, as a story, has existed long before Homer put it to paper. Owing to our intellectual prowess, humans have
been capable of deciphering countless number of phenomenon. However, that which we could not account for, we feared or worshiped, labeling it as
other–worldly. When man assigned the unintelligible as supernatural, he was absolutely smitten. He created fantasy– a world full of fairies, gnomes,
sprites, monsters and ghosts– all inducing emotions of either wonder, delight, or horror. Jack Zipes in his work Fairy Tales and the Art of Subversion,

Is Lazarillo De Tormes A Subversive Text?
Is Lazarillo de Tormes a subversive text? Illustrate your answer with examples.
In this essay I am going to discuss whether or not we can consider Lazarillo de Tormes as a subversive text and the reasons behind why or why not
we may believe it to be so. To accomplish this, I will explore the background behind Lazarillo, the different methods and literary devices used to
convey dual meaning and give the text an undertone of subversion.
The word 'subversion' is defined as "a systematic attempt to undermine, overthrow or cause the destruction of an established or legally constituted
government or political system." 1 Lazarillo de Tormesis thought to have been written during 16th century Spain, a time of oppression and
exploitation of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
We see on multiple occasions in Lazarillo a tendency towards euphemism as a means to deploy underhand comments and subtle hints of resentment
towards the institution of the Church and the system of nobility in 16th century Spain. This greatly lends aid to the overall subversiveness of the text
and allows the author to convey his contempt for the system without being overly heretical. For example, in the fourth episode, when speaking of his
time spent with the Friar, LГЎzaro relates to us how the Friar didn't like spending time in the convent, preferring to make personal visits and walk
outside and because of this, had 'broken more shoes' in the convent than any other. "Tanto, que pienso que rompГa Г©l mГЎs zapatos que todo el
convento." 5. This 'breaking of the shoes' could easily have been seen in context when taking into consideration the period as a euphemism for having
sex with virgins. This alone would have been scandalous as he is a Friar, and has taken an oath of celibacy. However, when recounting that the Friar
was housed in a convent, it is unlikely that there would have been a significant amount of virgins waiting around for him to partake in such activities

Subversion of Class and Gender Roles in Jane Austen's Persuasion
In Jane Austen's Persuasion, Mrs. Croft makes but few appearances and delivers little dialogue. Nevertheless, Austen gives her significant narrative and
thematic importance. Mrs. Croft provides a foil for several of the Elliots, while developing a commonality with the frequently ostracized Anne. This
bond between Mrs. Croft and Austen's heroine valorizes Mrs. Croft's radical views concerning feminism and marriage. Beyond signifying a paradigm
shift in such social morals, though, the roles of Admiral and Mrs. Croft allow Austen to subvert the dominant upper class culture. By exhibiting superior
but genuine manners, by demonstrating the complacency ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Because of this clear characterization of Mary, when we hear of Mrs. Croft's mild sea–sickness, we admire her fortitude while recognising Mary's
sacrifice.
Mrs. Croft thus differentiates herself from Sir Walter, Elizabeth and Mary. She also redefines femininity among these acquaintances. Although not
conventionally pretty, "neither tall nor fat" (34), she has "bright dark eyes, good teeth, and altogether an agreeable face" (34). According to Anne, then,
an unconventional woman can still be attractive. Furthermore, to describe her "weather–beaten complexion" (34), Anne gently describes how Mrs.
Croft "[seems] to have lived some years longer in the world than her real eight–and–thirty" (35). The emphasis on living in the world, instead of on
aesthetic descriptions like aged or wrinkled, indicates that Anne, (and therefore Austen), values experience and intellect, more than physical beauty.
Similarly, Mrs. Croft defies conventional notions of domesticity as the female realm. Mr. Shepherd reveals that, while considering leasing Kellynch
Hall, Mrs. Croft "asked more questions about the house, and terms, and taxes, than the Admiral himself" (17). Thus, Mrs. Croft manages perfectly well
in financial affairs. Furthermore, Mrs. Croft does not exhibit the female delicacy, as does Elizabeth, who relies utterly

Coming Out By Heiner Carow
Within German cinema, one can identify a particular type of films taking place in, and thematizing issues of, the former East German state. Given
the undemocratic nature of the GDR, these films are particularly suited to discuss the way that people react to a status quo: whether by accepting it
and conforming to it, or by rejecting and subverting it in various ways. These different options appear in the two films analysed in this essay. Coming
Out (1989) by Heiner Carow was filmed in the GDR, and charts a gay man 's process of acceptance of himself. The Lives of Others (2006) by Florian
Henckel von Donnersmarck looks back at the GDR 's past, and more specifically at the actions of the Stasi. Its plot, set in 1984, follows a Stasi agent
's "conversion" to political subversion and to being a "good man". First, this essay will examine the representation of acceptance of the status quo in
these films, before turning to the portrayal of subversion. Lastly, it will highlight some of the negative aspects of the subversion depicted – such
aspects being introduced either in a conscious and critical way, or not.
First, acceptance of the status quo occurs in its internalization by the characters. At this stage, they do not question the rules of the society in which

The Presentation Of Conformity And Subversion Of Gothic...
Discuss the presentation of conformity and subversion of gothic archetypes
The gothic genre has been a prominent literary style throughout many eras, a popular example being 'The Castle of Otranto'. I have studied three
texts; Emile Bronte's novel 'Wuthering Heights', published in December 1847, 'The Selected Poems of John Keats', published in 1817 and the later
'The Bloody Chamber' by Angela Carter, published in 1979. They all use gothic elements in different ways to create a variety of effects and reflect on
their own personal views, Carter in particular as a post modern writer and Keats' confusion of sexuality.
The three texts I have studied all conform to the gothic genre in similar ways such as, the use of setting (use Gothic conventions to develop setting).
For example in 'The Eve of St Agnes' the primary setting is a medieval castle which is portrayed as being sinister and isolated, Keats describes a
"lowly arched way", the adjective "lowly" suggests the insignificance and unimportance of the castle. The "cobwebs" could further highlight the fact
that the castle is old and has remained uninhabited for a number of years suggesting an ominous presence. In addition to this, it could also suggest the
prescence of insects and spiders within the castle connoting danger and eeriness creating a spine–chilling atmosphere. Keats further makes use of the

Analysis Of The Book ' Little Red Cap ' By Angela Carter
Fairytales subvert, challenge or reaffirm archetypal values through didactic lenses. The presence of universal themes allows for an examination of
contextual shifts and by being malleable in nature, can be made relevant to different audiences. The Brothers Grimm 's "Little Red Cap", Angela
Carter's 'The Company of Wolves" and Tommy Wirkola 's film, "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters" all promote their hegemonic ideologies and as
'cultural artefacts' extrapolate the contextual values of their time period. Carl Jung 's theory of the 'Collective Unconscious" ensures that each of these
fairytale adaptations can retain their archetypal value and thus remain significant and relevant in contemporary circumstances.
The Brother Grimm's 19th Century Fairytale, "Little Red Cap" reflects the hegemonies of its context through its cautionary justification. Grimm's work
reflected the importance of German national cohesion under French occupation and the view towards foreigners as destructive usurpers. "Little Red
Cap" was adapted for instructional purposes, specifically aimed at a children 's audience. Initially in the tale, the subversion of Perrault's depiction of
the girl is evident exemplifying her as a "sweet" little girl and the hyperbolic "everybody loved her instantly on first sight" demonstrates the engrained
virtue of her youth. The instruction for Little Red Cap to "not stray from the path" foreshadows the inherent danger associated with a misguided

as espionage because often times the main goal is to access secured or confidential information. Lastly, he considers cyber–attacks to be sabotage
because the intended aim of the attack is to disrupt or destroy military or economic installations. (Rid, Cyber War Will Not Take Place, 2012)
Ultimately, for Rid, what has ostensibly been considered to be cyber war are basically manifestation of age old activities of espionage, sabotage and
subversion.
Rid concludes with three points. First, he concludes that low tech cyber activities will have greater impact on global political stability and in certain
scenarios can even lead to conventional war. He argues that the power of the internet to power social courses presents the greatest threat to global
stability even more than high tech capabilities used in sabotage; this is because mobilizing and sustaining a movement via is now easier and requires

Similarities Between Salem Witch Trials and McCarthyism

  • 1. Similarities Between Salem Witch Trials And Mccarthyism McCarthyism and the Salem Witch Trials McCarthyism and the Salem Witch Trials are notorious events in American History. Although they weren't contemporary, it is undeniable that they are related. McCarthyism was from about 1950 to 1954, or when World War 2 had finished and the Cold War was "heating up." There was anxiety in countries all over the world and people were beginning to panic. First term senator from Wisconsin, Joseph McCarthy, did nothing to comfort the nation. In February of 1950, Joseph McCarthy presented a speech that claimed he had a list of 205 communists in the State Department (History.com). Joseph McCarthy's egotistical action resulted in people losing trust in America's government. President Dwight Eisenhower and other ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... At the beginning of McCarthy's second term as senator, he was put in charge of the Committee on Government Operations, which permitted him to expand his investigation. Despite the absence of proof of subversion, more than 2,000 government employees were jobless due to McCarthy's conjecture (History.com). Not only did McCarthy's erratic actions cause complications in the government, it ruined relations within the citizens. Trust was nonexistent and everything was second–guessed. Stress was more of a problem than before and the outcome was people were hopeless. McCarthyism was one of the most muddled movements in American history, but it was not the only movement that divided us from one another. The Salem Witch Trials were another one of America's plights that triggered a parting in society. McCarthyism and the Salem Witch Trials are undoubtedly alike in a couple ways. During both of these events, select actions were intolerable. In the McCarthyism era, people were accused of subversion, or communist actions. Being accused of subversion was looked at not much differently than being a terrorist. You were put on trial which had the potential to land you in prison. In 1692, the time of the Salem Witch Trials, people were accused ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Here is a excerpt from the biography of Muhammad ,which has been accepted world wide as true but those who practice the faith. When the tribe of . . . Quraiza was ready to accept Sad's judgment, Allah's Apostle sent for Sad who was near to him. Sad came, riding a donkey and when he came near, Allah's Apostle said (to the Ansar) [or Helpers], "Stand up for your leader." Then Sad came and sat beside Allah's Apostle who said to him. "These people are ready to accept your judgment." Sad said, "I give the judgment that their warriors should be killed and their children and women should be taken as prisoners." The Prophet then remarked, "O Sad! You have judged amongst them with (or similar to) the judgment of the King Allah." Muhammad inspired his men to make war in the name of Islam by looting , killing , beheadings, and forcing innocents into slavery. And if the Quran is to be believed, this is the man all Muslims are supposed to emulate? Long after Muhammad 's eventual death, Muslims have continued his jihad ( holy war ) for hundreds of thousands of years. Only being checked by the ability of native non Muslims to protect themselves. One example of this was the defeat of the Umayyad caliphate at the battle of Tours, which shattered their power in Europe. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. Tough Princess Conventions The Tough Princess by Waddell is a children's book that can be considered part of the fairy tale genre, shown through its inclusion of stereotypical conventions. It can also be classified as a fractured fairy tale – which is a tale that has been retold or created in order to give a different view on the original plot. The original review of the book by Child Education, suggests that the book "breaks all the conventions of the traditional fairy tale and is all the more fun for that". Within this essay, I will be discussing to which degree this is accurate, in terms of subverting all of the conventions and whether the reasoning behind he subversion is simply for comedic effect, or not. Fairy tales have long been considered an important part ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The Tough Princess was created in 1986, and this means that certain allowances can be made for a partial, rather than full, subversion on the ideological level. Parsons (2004:135) states that fairy tales are the sites for the constructions of appropriate gendered behaviour and are an integral part of gendered layering in cultural stories and influencing perpetuating cultural norms. His work is advancement on Rice's (2000:135), who suggested that fairy stories provide a script for acceptable forms of feminine and masculine behaviour. The way in which fairy tales embed appropriate gender behaviours within their narrative structures, masks the fact that fairy tales are created and produced through the dominant discourse (Parsons ...

  • 4. Gender Role Reversal? Analyzing Junot Diaz's 'Drown' and... Gender Role Reversal? Conventional sexual normative values for males typically include an emphasis of attributes that include self–reliance, dominance, assertion, and a healthy appetite for heterosexual behavior. By contrast, those that apply to females usually include a submissiveness and dependency that is all too oftentimes easily exploited by men. In this respect, the body of literature analyzed within this paper––Sandra Cisneros' "Bien Pretty" and "Anguiano Religious Articles" in Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories, as well as Junot Diaz's "Drown" and "Aguantando"––is demonstrative of these truths as an examination of the characterizations and storylines readily demonstrates. However, what is most noteworthy about Cisneros and Diaz's tales is that these authors also have a penchant for deliberately subverting the typical gender roles associated with each sex, particular those of male characters. In these instances, male characters forsake their traditional assertiveness and dominance and become objectified in ways that are usually reserved for female characters and women in general. In these instances, the authors present a fascinating dichotomy that appears incongruent in its depiction of manhood, for the simple fact that these portraits of male characters combine conventional male attributes with an objectification that is usually reserved for women. Both Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories and Drown contrast conventional images of male sexuality with ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

To begin, it is important to understand that covert and clandestine operations are two distinct types of operations. According to the Department of Defense, a covert operation is defined as: "An operation that is so planned and executed as to conceal the identity of or permit plausible denial by the sponsor." These types of operations may include: sabotage, assassinations, conducting or supporting coups, or other types of subversion tactics. Some of these tactics may include both violent and nonviolent means in order to carry out the operation. These operations are usually targeted against state actors. However,...

This policy has a long history in South America, especially in Nicaragua. In the early 1900's the US engaged in a number of small military activities in order to protect US interest and US business. These military interventions lead to US occupation in 1909, 1912, and 1927. In each of these cases the United States sought to uphold or aid more conservative movements of the Nicaraguan government to ensure favorable business relations with the state. Some of which included occupying Nicaragua with a small military force. As long Nicaraguans policies remained beneficial to the United States, the US stayed out of Nicaraguan affairs and cared little about the type of government or how that said government acted .

  • 6. Gender Trouble: Feminism And The Subversion Of Identity 'Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity' was written by the philosopher Judith Butler. Butler argues that gender is a kind of improvised performance. Butler's work is influential in women's studies, feminism, and lesbian and gay studies. Butler's ideas about gender came to be foundational to queer theory and the advancing of dissident sexual practices during the 1990s. Butler starts 'gender Trouble' by dismissing feminist theory claims in the past about there only being one, central identity for women. She says that factors such as class, race, and even sexuality complicate the idea of a blanket term like Women or Woman. Butler says "For feminist theory, the development of a language that fully or adequately represents... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Having the focus on women representation or as the subject of feminist could be problematic because the term is hard to define. Not all people identify as a woman, but their sex is identified as female, and what it means to be a woman can change depending on multiple factors like race, class, sexuality, and location. For those that are not cis–gendered and identify with a different gender have to deal with being slighted by those that do. Butler is suggesting if we recognize all genders and gender identities within the feminist movement it will allow gender non–conforming individuals to have a safe space to grow and develop healthily. This made me think of Audre Lorde's argument where she says, "It is a particular academic arrogance to assume any discussion of feminist theory without examining our many differences, and without a significant input from poor women, Black and Third World women, and lesbians." (Lorde, 1984, pg. 110) Butler is saying that gender and sex are determined differently depending on the cultural norms of a certain place, and that the interpretation will also be impacted by other factors like race and class. These other factors along with gender and sex will influence someone's political ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 7. The King Who Was Well Bred Rose And Went To Meet Her Analysis Consider the word "see" in line 606, as Lanval's love enters the room she is immediately noticed. This prompt response to her entrance straightaway reveals the implications of her beauty and the importance it has on Lanval's trial along with the male relation the females in this time period. Women are objectified to a certain extent yet also essential to the inner workings of society. This can also be observed in the context of this passage due to the fact that the queen made the accusations against Lanval and though they were lies the extensive reach of her authority is notable. Also consider the line 607 "The king who was well bred rose and went to meet her" (166). This line directly relates aspects of the chivalric code to a woman's beauty due to the fact that the king was "well bred" he did not make her walk all the way to him and instead rose to meet ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... While at the same time as exemplifying masculinity through chivalry this line also begins the subversion of gender roles by putting the woman in the more dominant position – she is now in control of this situation. In the following line it is stated that "all the others honored her and offered to serve her" (166). The use of the verbs honor and offer are direct effects of the way they "see" her which continues to implicate the importance of her beauty while also putting her in a dominant role. This is emphasized once again in lines 611–612 "When they had looked at her well, when they greatly praised her beauty" (166). This is another instance in which a verb, "praised," is a direct result of seeing her beauty. This direct relation between such verbs and her presence helps to demonstrate her force and impact as a woman along with her characterization as a sovereign being. In lines 613–614 it is stated that "she spoke in this way, she didn't want to wait" ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 8. Ancient Greek Covert Actions Covert actions involves the use of military and political operatives as an intelligence activity, aimed at a specific target and undertaken in such a way that it does not reveal the identity of the source of the action. Through this concealment, the identity of the actor is disguised, providing deniability (Burgos, 2009). Covert actions, including information gathering and assassination have existed in many forms over the centuries and have developed through necessity for a particular civilization.

  • 9. Sex Trafficking In Women Rubin's theory is used in this work to state the power struggle of the findom. Since the findom can be placed in this vague status, it can be located in Rubin's theory of an imaginary line between good and bad sex, titled "the struggle over where to draw the line" (Figure 2). Rubin points out that the line seemingly stands between sexual order and chaos; however, some behavior is considered vague near the border – for example, the coupled and monogamous homosexuality (Rubin, 1993: 14–15). Therefore, the findom can be placed in the "major area of contest" in the figure since it can be "good" and "bad" simultaneously. (Figure 2.) As Rubin (1993) states, the sex hierarchy not only functions for societies to appraise the value of sex but also unequally rewards individuals in different levels of the hierarchy. Each individual receives different power benefits in social position according to his/her sexual position. Sexuality, through the hierarchal system, is engaged ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Butler says the formulation of gender trouble is built on Rubin's theory The Traffic in Women (1975), which describes how "normative sexuality fortifies normative gender" and how "sexual practice has the power to destabilize gender" (Butler, 1999: xi). As if sexual practice has the power to destabilize gender, sexual behavior has the power to challenge gender normativity. The statement, in this research, is linked to Jackson's (1995) suggestion that heterosexuality is neither fixed nor unchanging. The heterosexual normativity can be destabilised through sexual practices, and the constraints can be challenged through the materiality of the findom. The findom here is considered as a medium or a signifier to provide new signification of the "re–articulation" of desire, pleasure, and heterosexuality. This is therefore the possibility of subversion of the findom through bodies' sexual ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 10. Art Of Scapegoating Essay The concept of scapegoating has been around almost as long as human beings. We have proof from as far back as the time of the ancient Israelites that human societies would use ritualistic sacrifice of goats to absolve the people of their sins and bring that society together. And although the ritual of scapegoating uses an actual goat for sacrifice, the act of scapegoating can utilize any third party as a 'sacrifice' to absorb the guilt of others. A similar concept to scapegoating is the idea of the Suffering Servant as first described in the Book of Isaiah. The Suffering Servant willingly atones for the sins of others and suffers the punishment in their stead. The original Suffering Servant was the people of Israel who were living in exile ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Perhaps the most comprehensive essay on the origins and effects of scapegoating was written by RenГ© Girard. Girard described a cycle of rivalry between two parties where one person's achievement or desire of something creates envy and competition between others who become jealous and also begin to desire these things. This rivalry creates ever growing tension and conflict between these people whose desires only increase over time. The increasing animosity inevitably leads to an outbreak of violence and chaos, where the only way of stopping the hostility is through the sacrifice of a (semi) innocent third party who takes all of the blame, the scapegoat. The third party is an unwilling victim, and they must be believed to be completely guilty for the scapegoat effect to take place: "A scapegoat effect that can be acknowledged as such by the scapegoaters is no longer effective, it is no longer a scapegoat effect" (Girard, 1996, p. 14). After the scapegoat, has been sacrificed the warring people are reunited and peace returns. This peace is only fleeting, however, as mimetic cycle of rivalry will soon begin again and lead to conflict once more. This is why ritualistic scapegoating sacrifices must be repeated–the scapegoat effect is never ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 11. Mass Media, Subversions, And Human Thinking Do People have free will to decide what they need in this lifetime or does rhetoric decide for mankind? In fact, rhetoric for thousands of years has been the culprit behind human thinking when it comes to purchasing goods. According, to Aristotle rhetoric, is "the art of persuasion", that doesn't follow a set of rules like other disciplines of the Arts. The definitions of rhetoric aren't confined, but open to change when a spectator interprets the message. All things considered, the roles of mass media, subversions, and analyzing a commercial affect the human mind while using rhetoric. In other words, mass media play a major role in influencing People thinking through rhetorical discourse like sensationalism evoking a reaction from its viewership. For one thing, speeches, no longer have the effectiveness to convince people. Furthermore, the public opinions vary when it comes to biases, politics, and economics because they've heard only one side of the evidence that's has been reported. To put it differently, rhetorical concepts have been conditioning the viewer's perceptions with sound bites, imagery, and tone of languages naming some of the rhetorical devices of many. However, the mind can be complicated in deciphering the writer's intention through mediums. When this happens, it's called aberrant decoding a person takes on a meaning and subverts the message into its own understanding. Theorist Michael De Certeau aberrant decoding shows how some ...

  • 12. Drag Queen Analysis Drag queens have spent years performing for themselves and for many other people. Their shows today are a way to express themselves and make people question what they know about gender and sexuality. Rupp and Taylor in their book, "Drag Queens at the 801 Cabaret" discuss this subject in detail, calling their performances a form of protest. They question the roles that society has put them into, and in turn provoke their audiences to question these things, such as gender and sexuality. This type of social protest is called "subversion." Through this book, we can more specifically look at two types of subversion that played a major role in the 801 drag queen's performances. The first, and most obvious, is the idea of masculinity versus femininity, and how the Queens use different techniques to break free from the traditional way of thinking about these concepts. The second is the overt way that the Queens portray sex and sexuality, in ways that are impossible for the audience to ignore. Both these types of subversion have an overarching theme of crossing boundaries, whether over the division of the gender binary, or the limits of what is socially acceptable to talk about regarding sex. Drag queens envelop the audience and take many of them out of their comfort zone. What it means to be feminine and masculine in our society has been drilled into each and every one of us since birth. Men are taught to act a certain way, so as to be the breadwinners and protectors of women. Women ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The adventurous stories are continually thriving through the different techniques that writers use including the themes that each tale embraces to draw their readers in and remember them. This allows for the fairy tales to be prevalent to the world today. Before fairy tales were the sources of many movie adaptions, they were only spread word of mouth, where story tellers would share them with their communities.

The media then amplifies these worlds so that they are predominant in what we believe them to be ("The Irresistible Fairy Tale: The Culture and Social History of a Genre" 20). Technology has expanded fairy tales by using all different types of genres and art to embrace them by making it easier and more effective. The tales attract people to listen and pay attention to them as they change and are recreated ("The Irresistible Fairy Tale: The Culture and Social History of a Genre" 40). Fairy tales are written to be relatable for the everyday person. They stick because they use their characters to reflect the actions of how the human species as evolved. Similarly to when people go through a crisis, the characters of fairy tales adapt to a new situation. They may also use a survival method or have to protect themselves. While the exact circumstances are not the same, the same emotions are played that make people to connect to with their own lives.

  • 14. John Donne And Cecile Day Lewis Since definition of love and its representation varies person to person and in the past it has already been represented in various ways, which leads one to presume that language is insufficient to represent love. However, it is evident that the language has proved to be sufficient enough to not only analyze, dissect and explain the feelings of love from so many angles including biologically. Subversions of conventions of love is not the matter of insufficiency of language but a matter of how a poet experiences love or how a poet chooses to express those experiences. It is mainly the poet's era and life experiences that dictate how he/she represents love. Thomas Wyatt, John Donne and Cecile Day Lewis are good examples of how life experiences can determine the poets' divergence of traditional courtly and pastoral love. An abreast analysis of the above poets' lives and their works allow us to draw parallels between their life experiences and their subversions of conventions of love. Thomas Wyatt's subversion of courtly love was influenced by his intimate relation with the women. Sir Thomas Wyatt, an English ambassador suffered from his wife's infidelity and his mistress's marriage with his king and later her execution. Due to his position of being an ambassador of England left him no choice but to represent love in courtly and patriarchal manner.

This review focuses on how bacterial pathogenic cells have evolved alongside normal eukaryotic host cells, leading to the development of mechanisms that allowed bacterial cells to take over eukaryotic cells and counteract host defences. This review article is taken from Nature journal, under the Nature Publishing Group (NPG). NPG publishes high impact scientific and medical information both online and in print. Nature was founded in 1869 and is a leading international weekly scientific journal. In particular, this review is taken from the Nature Reviews journal, which specialises in many different scientific disciplines, including Nature Reviews Microbiology, from which this review was taken. As a result, this journal directly corresponds to the sub–discipline of microbiology, making it relevant and useful for microbiologists and other scientific professionals, as well as a broader public audience, seeking specific articles on key topics in the field of microbiology. The purpose of this review is to draw on many sources of information documenting the way in which pathogenic bacteria targets a variety of host organelles such as the nucleus, the ER, Golgi and mitochondria by exploiting eukaryotic cells through a number of different processes. It was determined throughout the review that there is a wide range of host–pathogen interactions that allow for bacterial infection to occur. The ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The characters have caused emotional harm to others or themselves due to their decisions. Most of the replies to these moral dilemmas are based on how selfish or selfless these characters. They can only choose between the choices that value the other people or value themselves. Two characters that make these decisions are Stephen, a worker at the Hand in Coketown, and Louisa, the daughter of a teacher in the town. Some of their choices may seem questionable to others.

Us humans are selectively fair to those that have a positive relationship with us and those who have a negative relationship towards us are known as cheaters. Cheating The association between Stephen and his wife is a solid example of the cheating rudiment. He is making dishonest choices because he does not have a healthy relationship with his wife anymore. After meeting an old woman, Stephen started thinking about Racheal: "He thought of the number of girls and women she had seen marry...how she had contentedly pursued her own lone quite path – for him." (p.82) When we love someone, we tend to think often about the person we have feelings for. He is cheating on his wife because he is fantasizing about Racheal instead of his current wife. Later, his wife was about to drink poison until Racheal came to save her from it. Before drinking the poison, Stephen's wife passes Stephen, who appears to be asleep. But it turned out that "All this time, as if a spell were on him, he was motionless and powerless, except to watch her." Stephen wasn't asleep. Rather than saving her from accidentally poisoning, Stephen decided to do nothing but watch her fall into her death. This is cheating because he would rather have her dead than preventing him from having a marriage with Racheal. He would sacrifice her only for his satisfaction. Before this event, Stephen tells Mr. Bounderby that his relationship goes "From bad to worse, from worse to worsen. She left ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 19. The Potential for Subversion Denied in Sacre de Printemps Pina Bausch's Sacre de Printemps is a performance that communicates the story of a ritual and human sacrifice. The performance begins with a large group of women dancing around a red cloth. Their movements are frantic, sharp, and aggressive and they both move in unison and break off into canon. Later on in the piece, a group of men join the women and they dance in separate groups, come together and form circles, and finally break off into pairs. When the men enter the performance, a ritual begins that involves the selection of one female for sacrificial purposes. The men select this woman, she changes into a red dress, and all the members of the cast look on as she dances until she falls to the ground dead. Throughout the piece, there are instances of subversion and instances of conformity to traditional gender roles in dance. The performance as a whole at times challenges traditional expectations of women and at others conforms to them. The movement and costumes convey initial potential for the subversion of male dominance that ends up confirming and upholding traditional roles and expectations of gender in dance. The dancers' movements throughout the performance seem to challenge and uphold gender binaries at the same time. At the beginning, when only female dancers are present their movements are agentive, strong, quick, and athletic–characteristics not usually allowed for female dancers.

  • 20. Analysis Of ' Too Big For Broadway ' Kander and Ebb took a great risk in using the framework of a minstrel show to tell the story in their musical The Scottsboro Boys. Various sources argue that the use of the minstrel show in Kander and Ebb's The Scottsboro Boys hinders the audiences experience and undermines the importance of this trial. This argument is one of many and goes to show that Kander and Ebb took many risks in using the minstrel show to tell the story of the Scottsboro Boys. Other sources argue that the humor and stereotypes of the minstrel show perpetuate the boys' lack of individuality. In the article, "Too big for Broadway?:
The limits of historical and theatrical empathy in Parade and The Scottsboro Boys," it is argued that this lack of characterization "makes it feel as though 'the Boys' are being victimized, not by American racism, but by Kander and Ebb" (Stahl 76). With all of the dangers involved in the use of this racist form, it is understandable how the intention of the minstrel show can be misconstrued. Kander and Ebb incorporate many aspects of the minstrel show such as comedy and stereotyping to create a contrast with the moments when the characters rebel against the minstrel show. The SpeakEasy Stage Company portrays the contrast of these moments impeccably. This production of The Scottsboro Boys validates that when done well, the minstrel elements are very effective in creating tension between the horrible truths of the trial and with the pleads for freedom by the characters.

The setting of the film is Salzburg, Austria in 1938 immediately following the start of German occupation due to the Anschluss.

At this point in the number, only the two adults and the youngest child are left on stage. The youngest von Trapp is ushered off stage to join the others before Maria and Captain calmly walk off stage, embracing each other. The most obvious subversion of war authority belongs to the setting of the movie–1938 in Salzburg, Austria, the year in which Germanic Nazi power took over Austria. In March of 1938, "Austria was the first victim of Hitler's policy of aggression. The German domination of that country (the so–called Anschluss) heralded the beginning of a diplomatic demarche" (Clute VII). Specifics as to how this happened include a conspired alliance between Austrian Nazis and German Nazis who infiltrated their power into Austrian government.

Many factors influenced relations between the Americans and Soviets. Nonetheless, it was the Korean War and McCarthyism that truly influenced negativity in their already broken relationship and made their rivalry the long and dangerous affair it was.

There were Americans dying in Korea fighting against a communist movement.

And, those who weren't getting accused of being communists, campaigned with furor against "commies" or supported McCarthy in his investigations of alleged subversion in many areas of government. Thus, had it not been for the Soviet support of communist North Korea in the Korean War, Josef Stalin would not have become the face of communism and anxiety about domestic subversion in the United States would have increased to level it did. Had American fear of subversion not reached the level of hysteria it did, McCarthyism would not have become as popular and Joseph McCarthy would've simply been considered a fool.

Davis also concludes that Frankenstein fears the female's ability create new life saying, "The possibility that his female monster might reproduce moves Victor to destroy her" (Davis 311). Not only Frankenstein has harsh assumptions about women but the monster does as well. After the monster kills William he frames Justine for the murder saying, "Should she Justine awake, and see me, and curse me, and denounce the murderer? Thus she would assuredly act, if her darkened eyes opened, and she beheld me. The thought was madness; it stirred the fiend within me – not I, but shh shall suffer: the murder I have committed because I am for ever robbed of all that she could give me, she shall atone. The crime bad its source in her: be hers the punishment!" (Shelley 143–44) Davis interprets this quote as saying that the monster assumes that Justine is a bad person and deserves this punishment for what he has done.

Gender is imposed through patterns of thought in the society, but history shows that identities have changed over time, then it is impossible to say that they are fixed and eternal. Gender Trouble is an original and radical text that employs for political ends the analytical methods of poststructuralist theory (and its challenge to categories and ideas of objective truth).

Owing to our intellectual prowess, humans have been capable of deciphering countless number of phenomenon. However, that which we could not account for, we feared or worshiped, labeling it as other–worldly. When man assigned the unintelligible as supernatural, he was absolutely smitten.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... We see on multiple occasions in Lazarillo a tendency towards euphemism as a means to deploy underhand comments and subtle hints of resentment towards the institution of the Church and the system of nobility in 16th century Spain. This greatly lends aid to the overall subversiveness of the text and allows the author to convey his contempt for the system without being overly heretical. For example, in the fourth episode, when speaking of his time spent with the Friar, LГЎzaro relates to us how the Friar didn't like spending time in the convent, preferring to make personal visits and walk outside and because of this, had 'broken more shoes' in the convent than any other. "Tanto, que pienso que rompГa Г©l mГЎs zapatos que todo el convento." 5. This 'breaking of the shoes' could easily have been seen in context when taking into consideration the period as a euphemism for having sex with virgins. This alone would have been scandalous as he is a Friar, and has taken an oath of celibacy.

Nevertheless, Austen gives her significant narrative and thematic importance. Mrs. Croft provides a foil for several of the Elliots, while developing a commonality with the frequently ostracized Anne. This bond between Mrs. Croft and Austen's heroine valorizes Mrs. Croft's radical views concerning feminism and marriage.

Because of this clear characterization of Mary, when we hear of Mrs. Croft's mild sea–sickness, we admire her fortitude while recognising Mary's sacrifice.

Although not conventionally pretty, "neither tall nor fat" (34), she has "bright dark eyes, good teeth, and altogether an agreeable face" (34). According to Anne, then, an unconventional woman can still be attractive. Furthermore, to describe her "weather–beaten complexion" (34), Anne gently describes how Mrs. Croft "[seems] to have lived some years longer in the world than her real eight–and–thirty" (35). The emphasis on living in the world, instead of on aesthetic descriptions like aged or wrinkled, indicates that Anne, (and therefore Austen), values experience and intellect, more than physical beauty. Similarly, Mrs. Croft defies conventional notions of domesticity as the female realm. Mr. Shepherd reveals that, while considering leasing Kellynch Hall, Mrs. Croft "asked more questions about the house, and terms, and taxes, than the Admiral himself" (17).

  • 31. Coming Out By Heiner Carow Within German cinema, one can identify a particular type of films taking place in, and thematizing issues of, the former East German state. Given the undemocratic nature of the GDR, these films are particularly suited to discuss the way that people react to a status quo: whether by accepting it and conforming to it, or by rejecting and subverting it in various ways. These different options appear in the two films analysed in this essay. Coming Out (1989) by Heiner Carow was filmed in the GDR, and charts a gay man 's process of acceptance of himself. The Lives of Others (2006) by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck looks back at the GDR 's past, and more specifically at the actions of the Stasi. Its plot, set in 1984, follows a Stasi agent 's "conversion" to political subversion and to being a "good man". First, this essay will examine the representation of acceptance of the status quo in these films, before turning to the portrayal of subversion. Lastly, it will highlight some of the negative aspects of the subversion depicted – such aspects being introduced either in a conscious and critical way, or not. First, acceptance of the status quo occurs in its internalization by the characters. At this stage, they do not question the rules of the society in which they live.

They all use gothic elements in different ways to create a variety of effects and reflect on their own personal views, Carter in particular as a post modern writer and Keats' confusion of sexuality. The three texts I have studied all conform to the gothic genre in similar ways such as, the use of setting (use Gothic conventions to develop setting). For example in 'The Eve of St Agnes' the primary setting is a medieval castle which is portrayed as being sinister and isolated, Keats describes a "lowly arched way", the adjective "lowly" suggests the insignificance and unimportance of the castle. The "cobwebs" could further highlight the fact that the castle is old and has remained uninhabited for a number of years suggesting an ominous presence. In addition to this, it could also suggest the prescence of insects and spiders within the castle connoting danger and eeriness creating a spine–chilling atmosphere.

The presence of universal themes allows for an examination of contextual shifts and by being malleable in nature, can be made relevant to different audiences. The Brothers Grimm 's "Little Red Cap", Angela Carter's 'The Company of Wolves" and Tommy Wirkola 's film, "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters" all promote their hegemonic ideologies and as 'cultural artefacts' extrapolate the contextual values of their time period. Carl Jung 's theory of the 'Collective Unconscious" ensures that each of these fairytale adaptations can retain their archetypal value and thus remain significant and relevant in contemporary circumstances. The Brother Grimm's 19th Century Fairytale, "Little Red Cap" reflects the hegemonies of its context through its cautionary justification. Grimm's work reflected the importance of German national cohesion under French occupation and the view towards foreigners as destructive usurpers. "Little Red Cap" was adapted for instructional purposes, specifically aimed at a children 's audience. Initially in the tale, the subversion of Perrault's depiction of the girl is evident exemplifying her as a "sweet" little girl and the hyperbolic "everybody loved her instantly on first sight" demonstrates the engrained virtue of her youth.
