Blanche Ingram Jane Eyre
376 words
Blanche Ingram: Villain? Blanche Ingram is the
most important woman, other than Jane Eyre, in the
novel. Arguably, she is the most important
antagonist in this book. It is difficult to fathom
how an absolutely horrid, conceited, venal,
apathetic creature could be so vital to the book;
but take her away, the motivation, conflict, and
character itself crumbles. Consider this synopsis:
Jane Eyre has not yet come to terms with her love
with Mr. Rochester. Mr. Rochester is so infatuated

People Of Rome Caesar

One of the greatest generals who ever lived, his
military genius has been compared to that of
Robert E. Lee and Irvin Rommel. I know it doesnt
take a general to run an empire, but it does take
a smart man. I knew very little about Caesar until
I read the play by William Shakespeare. All I knew
was that he was a very good military strategist
and that he conquered most of Europe. After
reading this play I learned the wrongs that his
fellow Romans bestowed upon him. I learned that he
was never real...

Women Contribute to Their Own Misogyny Although
society has advanced dramatically technologically,
I feel that we still have a long way to go when it
comes to how we view one another. It amazes me
that in a society such as ours, that bases its
existence on the equality of all people, that
misogyny (as it occurred in medieval times) still
takes place. A timeless example of misogyny is the
objectifying of women, which suggests that a
womans sexual beauty is her only worth. In dealing
with this mis...

Othello. Othello is the title of the character and
play that we all studied earlier this semester.
However, it is Othello the character that I intend
to discuss. Othello is the husband to the
beautiful and innocent Desdemona, whom he murders
because the villainous and honest Iago has misled
him. A Moorish general in Venice, a society
plagued with racism and where adultery is neither
condemned nor approved of, Othello is in the midst
of a society that will hinder and not support his
progress. The...

Jockey to show that power always triumphs over
weakness. The colors all portray how powerful the
three men are, and the colors show how weak the
jockey is. The colors also show how the jockey
longs to be like the three men, who are wealthy
and strong, but he realizes that this can never
be. The first example of color imagery in the
story is He was wearing a suit of green Chinese
silk? ? the shirt was yellow, the tie striped with

Porphyria Lover vs. My Last Duchess by Daniel Vila
The similarities between Robert Browning? s two
poems, My Last Duchess and Porphyria? s Lover, are
uncanny, as they can be compared in theme, plot,
style, language, perspective and various other
ways. The two poems make the same statement
concerning men and love and men and their
relationship with women. In both poems, the male
narrator looks like a jesus, overbearing tyrant,
and the woman a passive victim of circumstance.
Neither poem makes men...
