Is Star Wars A Modern Day Fairytale
1,143 words
Is Star Wars a Modern Day Fairy Tale? The Star
Wars trilogy has been labeled as a groundbreaking
science fiction, space opera, and swashbuckling
adventure. But it is hardly ever recognized for
what it truly is, a fairy tale. At first thought,
it is difficult to acknowledge Star Wars as a
fairy tale because of its label as a Science
Fiction movie. One reason for this is the great
special effects and technology that are exhibited
throughout the movie, but the expanded Star Wars
story seems to teac...

Young Lovers Happy Ending

If there is truly tradition to be found among the
great theatres both on and off Broadway, then
certainly the Sullivan Street Playhouse and its
long running production of The Fantasticks rates
as one of the most celebrated of New York
theatrical traditions. Maintaining its place as
the longest running production Off Broadway, The
Fantasticks remains an enchanting and insightful
tale of both young love and bitter
disillusionment. It also reminds one, in this age
of spectacle and the mega-musical,...

Silence And Men Women

Men Fear Women, and Other Generalizations Kruegers
article, Women Readers and the Politics of Gender
in Le Roman de Silence, focuses on several
different interpretations of the romances
intentions towards presenting the role of women.
No conclusions are formed as to whether or not the
author of Silence, Heldris, is being misogynistic
or proto-feminist. Krueger points out that this
question of Heldris intent will probably never be
answered definitively. Her article does argue
that, while women ar...

Clever Smoother Dreamier Three Second Rule Girl

Feelings can twist reality in the most peculiar
ways. Emotions push the mind to the most stunning
conclusions, and stir within the soul the
strangest storms. In fact, senses reach their peak
in David Wagoners poetic work The Best Slow
Dancer. In the poem, Wagoner brings out the height
of sentiment through the eyes of a teenage boy at
a school dance, who overcomes the teenage social
hierarchy and his own fear to share in the
longed-for dance with one special girl. All the
while Wagoner takes his ...

Critical Film Analysis Of Smiles A Summer Night
550 words
Smiles of a Summer Night is the story of a series
of amorous adventures undertaken by various
people, set in Sweden at the turn of the century.
Done by Bergman, it is a scintillating, charmingly
sensual romantic comedy. The film deals with the
problems between several couples as they move in
different and rather unpredictable stages during
their erotic games. The setting is a country house
party in the midsummer of 1900. It is very
surprising, but in Smiles of a Summer Night women
are the domina...

Checkov and Oates The Lady with a Pet Dog:
Modernism vs. Romanticism There are many debatable
similarities and differences between Checkov s
Lady with a Pet Dog set in Russia in the early
part of the century and Joyce Carol Oates Lady
with a Pet Dog told from Anna s point of view in
the 1970 s in Nantucket. However, Oates
modernization makes the story lose a lot in
translation. The modernized version lacks the
romance and appeal that Checkov s version
possesses and doesn t have the same flair du...

Great Expectations Real Life
1,379 words
The very title of this book indicates the
confidence of conscious genius. In a new aspirant
for public favor, such a title might have been a
good device to attract attention; but the most
famous novelist of the day, watched by jealous
rivals and critics, could hardly have selected it,
had he not inwardly felt the capacity to meet all
the expectations he raised. I have read it as it
appeared in installments, and can testify to the
felicity with which expectation was excited and
prolonged, and to ...

Wife And Mother Chopin The Awakening
742 words
Kate Chopin's The Awakening is a work of fiction
that tells the story of Edna Pontellier, Southern
wife and mother. This book presents the reader
with many tough questions and few answers. It is
not hard to imagine why this book was banished for
decades not long after its initial publication in
1899. At that time in history, women did just what
they were expected to do. They were expected to be
good daughters, good wives, and good mothers. A
woman was expected to move from the protection of

Falling In Love Romantic Love
1,063 words
The main themes of As You Like It are the pastoral
ideal and the ideal of romantic love. Forest of
Aden is the primary setting where these themes
develop. Nature serves as a refuge from society
where we can find solutions to injustice and
unhappiness. This play is a comedy and thus has a
happy ending but it is not a fairy tail.
Shakespeare highlights the difference between
reality and illusion. Rosalind embodies the
sensibility, the humor and the kind of love that
leads to a happy, harmonious li...

Passion And Romance Free Free Marriage
237 words
Katherine Chopin has a different opinion of love,
marriage, than most writers of her day. In her
writing she indicates to her readers that
marriage, though built on a foundation of love can
not contain passion. Love is considered a feeling
that inspires passion, and romance. It continues
on throughout the marriage, but the passion and
romance are lost somewhere in the struggles of
married life. This loss can also occur in the task
of raising children, causing a sort of neglect for
the love of on...

King Arthur Middle Ages

King King Arthur KING ARTHUR King Arthur is the
figure at the heart of the Arthurian legends. He
is said to be the son of Uther Pendragon and
Ygraine of Cornwall. Arthur is a near mythic
figure in Celtic stories such as Culhwch and Open.
In early Latin chronicles he is presented as a

questions that has occupied those interested in
King Arthur is whether or not he is a historical
figure. The debate...

Love For Heathcliff Heathcliff And Catherine
1,265 words
Many readers argue that Wuthering Heights by Emily
Bronte is anything but a romance. Although it does
not follow the conventional form of the Victorian
Romance novels, it can be argued that it is one of
the greatest love stories of all time. The
traditional forms of love may not be represented
in this story, but one can not argue that love is
the predominant theme throughout the book. What
else but love could possibly drive the characters
to the ends which they accomplish. The most

Plays A Major Passage Of Time
1,328 words
The Tempest, penned by playwright William
Shakespeare, as one of his last works circa 1612
is a story about many things: love, revenge,
greed, politics, magic, and mystery. Even the
notion of time plays a major role, and it is this
aspect we shall be discussing in the following
pages. Time plays a fairly large role in many of
the ideas put forward in this rather wistful tale
of one man s (Prospero) betrayal at the hands of
his brother and his initial attempts at revenge.
