Masculinity And Femininity
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Society has long upheld to belief that things must be categorized, separated and defined in order for them to fit snugly into the standard of preconceived notions. The aspects of masculinity and femininity are no different in this regard, inasmuch as they are inherently diverse by nature yet are also further divided by social dictates. One of the ways in which this occurs is through the "nature versus nurture" indicators that are preset in every individual, such as that of language and body type. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

McElvaine/Eve's Seed
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page book review that examines a text that offers an alternative view of history. In the prologue to his text Eve's Seed: Biology, the Sexes and the Course of History (2001), historian Robert S. McElvaine states that "If the complex argument of the book had to be reduced to one sentence," it would be that "Hell hath no fury like a man devalued" (McElvaine 1). By this McElvaine means that the story of Adam and Eve was actually about the "fall of Man" but rather a metaphorical account of the rise of women, as he credits women with the invention of agriculture. Through this invention in the early pre-history of the race, women surpassed men and destroyed the significance of the male role as a hunter to the survival of the tribe. Furthermore, going to the heart of the biological difference between the sexes, McElvaine argues the male assertions of superiority can be traced to the "male inability to bear and nourish children" (McElvaine 3). Based on these propositions, McElvaine proceeds to offer a revisionist history that takes a decidedly different perspective from the traditional male-oriented view. No additional sources cited.

Measure For Measure/A Feminist View
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page essay that discusses this Shakespearean work from a feminist perspective. Shakespeare's Elizabethan era was characterized by an "oppressive patriarchal culture," yet within this society, there are existed contradictions, "pressure point," so to speak, where there were "opportunities for resistance" (Findlay 7). This is the theoretical position taken by Alison Findlay in her text A Feminist Perspective on Renaissance Drama (1999). Using Findlay's feminist position, it possible to interpret Shakespeare's manipulation of the trope of virginity in Measure For Measure as offering a feminist perspective. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Media Depictions of Gender
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page contention that our social constructs of gender are impacted by a number of factors. One of the more insidious of these factors is the media. To some degree, our contemporary ideas of gender are constructed in, by, and through media representations. Children, in particular, are susceptible to the influence of the media in shaping their ideas of gender. These ideas are then put into play in various aspects of our culture, our society, our economy, and our individual lives. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Medieval Gender Roles
[ send me this paper ]
Western Civilization often emphasizes the theme of human freedom. The role of women in medieval Europe has been portrayed as having limited freedom, denying them the right to exercise free will in a society dominated by religious considerations as well as being in the process of social and economic transition. This 7 page paper proposes that during the Middle Ages there were a number of factors that influenced gender roles, among them the preponderance of war and the assumption of political power by the church. Once the effects of war had declined, the church stepped in to re-establish former roles. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
