My Antonia
[ send me this report ]
5 pages in length. The duality of Willa Cather's portrayal in My Antonia represents the inherent dichotomy that exists between beauty and fear. Eloquently depicted and especially appealing to the senses, My Antonia is far more than a book that one reads, experiences, sets down and then forgets; rather, it is one that transcends the literary boundaries that separate reality from fantasy. The writer discusses how the haunting interpretation of a pioneer woman's difficult life is filled with aesthetically entrancing visuals, as well as formidable and unpredictable changes of such an existence. No additional sources cited.

My Antonia: Conventional Vs. Unconventional Roles Of Women
[ send me this report ]
5 pages in length. The duality of Willa Cather's portrayal of women in My Antonia represents the inherent dichotomy that exists between conventionality and unconventionality. A longstanding debate has raged ever since the author penned her account of a woman torn between traditional gender representation and that which is not considered conventional. The argument within the literary world revolves around the feminist approach, with some critics contending that Antonia represents the archetypal female who awakens to her innate functions as a woman. The writer presents a review of literary opinions in relation to how women's roles are portrayed in My Antonia. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

The Role of Women in Six Classic Literary Works
[ send me this report ]
A 10 page paper showing this critical issue as demonstrated in the works of Aristophanes, Plato, Dante, Shakespeare, Tolstoy, and Cather (Lysistrata, The Apology, The Inferno, The Tempest, The Death of Ivan Ilyich, and The Professor’s House, respectively). The paper shows that throughout history, women’s role has been largely seen as procreative, and completely under the domination of the paternalistic authority -- whether it be father, husband, or society. Only as the twentieth century neared do we see women’s roles in society -- and their responsibilities toward it -- becoming commensurate with men’s. Bibliography lists five
sources.

A nine page paper looking at Willa Cather's lesbianism as a reason for her nonconformist views. The paper asserts that due to the threat of being blackballed in the publishing industry, Cather was forced to hide her homosexuality, but her nonconformity shines through in her works. Bibliography lists seven sources.

Willa Cather's 'Paul's Case' / Conflict and Illusion
[ send me this report ]
A 5 page paper on Willa Cather's psychological portrait of a troubled teen. The paper concludes that Paul's rebellion pits far more than father against son, or the exquisite against the drab, or illusion against reality. It calls the very nature of reality into question, and strongly suggests that reality is relative to each individual.

Women and Society in Cather’s “O Pioneers!”
[ send me this report ]
A 5 page paper analyzing Willa Cather’s novel in terms of its treatment of a strong, independent woman and her influence on the outcasts of society. The paper argues that women such as Alexandra Bergson have drawn from their feminine side the sympathy to care about those less fortunate than themselves, and from their masculine side (which many of them didn’t even know they had) the power to change lives for the better. No additional sources.

Setting in 'Devil in a Blue Dress' and Skinwalkers
[ send me this report ]
A 3 page paper discussing these novels by Walter Mosley and Tony Hillerman, respectively. The paper points out that the culture of the locale in which these novels are set determines the ground rules for the entire novel. In this way, setting functions almost like the ruling spirit of the novel itself, setting the motivations of the characters in motion, and then stepping back while the characters move the plot. No additional sources cited.

The Detective Genre in 'Devil in a Blue Dress'
[ send me this report ]
A 6 page paper on the novel by Walter Mosley. The paper suggests that the novel has a hard time characterizing itself as either mystery or social commentary, and while it has elements of both, it has the strengths of neither. Much of this is caused by its somewhat predictable plot and slight characterizations. No additional sources cited.
