The Nature of Gender Roles in the Tale of Ramayana and the Gender Roles Found Today
[ send me this paper ]
This is an 8 page paper discussing gender roles in Ramayana and those of today. The tale of Ramayana first said to be written around the year 1000 B.C. outlines the traditional gender roles in dharma. Rama as the male role model was obedient to his parents and faithful to his wife and eventually led an army to rescue her as would a traditional hero. Sita is Rama’s faithful and beautiful wife who follows him when he is banished in the forest, is faithful to him when she is abducted and obedient to him when he asks her to perform a test of her chastity. The tale has provided gender models for thousands of years and has also undergone various reinterpretations which constantly redefine the roles of Sita and Rama. In some versions, Sita is a strong and powerful woman who is humiliated by her husband’s request. Despite the different versions which exist, modern day Indian women and men and Indian communities in the western world have been found to have different gender roles. While many families still have “traditional” roles with the woman in charge of the house and children and obedient to her husband, still other studies have found that many modern Indian women today see themselves as independent professionals and in many cases, the major wage earners in their households.

The Rape Of Rebecca Foster
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. What actually happened in Hallowell, Maine in 1789 requires the student to look past all the discord and ulterior motives that existed during the small town's most unprecedented occurrence. With two opposing pieces of historical evidence, it would seem justifiable to believe that at least one – if not both – contain a mixture of truth and fiction in order to support their specific viewpoint of the events. That the church reflected the unified religious point of view for the entire town provided the basis upon which its historical evidence might be skewed to help support the notion that Rebecca Foster's rape was little more than an invented plan to avenge her husband's poor treatment when he occupied the pulpit. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
