Jury Of Her Peers Making Fun
1,108 wordsDifferences and Stereotypes Between Genders in: Susan Glaspells A Jury of Her Peers The Author Susan Glaspell shows an obvious stereotypical attitude by men towards women in her story, A Jury of Her Peers.

Defining Moment Trojan War
1,710 wordsExamine why the Iliad concludes with the funeral of Hektor. Could Hektor's death be recognised as a major defining moment in the Trojan War? In this essay I will illustrate how the burial customs of the late bronze-age Greeks facilitated the way in which the Iliad was structured; additionally in what way the belief of the Greeks in 8 th Century (BCE) may have been represented in the discussions which took place between the living and the dead.
