"Lysistrata" And "The Wife Of Bath" – Sex As Power In A Relationship
[ send me this essay ]
4 pages in length. Throughout history, women have had one – and only one – trump card to play in an otherwise patriarchal society. The female gender has routinely been oppressed, degraded and made to feel less than a human being all in keeping with the heavy-handed tactics of a male-oriented existence. With nothing else to use as a weapon against such inhumane treatment, women have long withheld sex as a means by which to get their counterparts' attention; nowhere is this more evident than in such early works as "Lysistrata" and "The Wife of Bath." Bibliography lists 4 sources.

"Sir Gawain And The Green Knight": Comparing Moral Characters
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Upon comparing the moral fiber of both primary characters in "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight," one can readily surmise that while on the surface there does not appear to be any similarity of attributes, one will undoubtedly find a common denominator to some degree between the two knights. Clearly, Sir Gawain stands out as the story's protagonist, inasmuch as he is replete with moral fortitude inherent to such an individual. The Green Knight, on the other hand, is the wicked antagonist on the surface, yet he harbors a veiled morality that serves as one of the tale's most interesting character dualities. No additional sources cited.
