Summary and critical review of ‘To His Excellency General Washington’

Introduction
I do not think Phillis Wheatley should have written a letter to George Washington praising him for fighting for America’s freedom. I believe she should have addressed the fact the she was brought to America from Africa as a slave. She should have written about the freedom for the African’s that were enslaved for hundreds of years, instead of worrying about George Washington’s fight for America’s freedom. In the following analysis of the letter of introduction, and the subsequent poem, Phillis Wheatley comes across as a poet who was out of touch with her roots and ...

The social inequalities and injustice were common across North America and such discriminations instigated the feminists to defy subjugation and fight for equality. Social change efforts have been met with significant barriers across the years, and yet women’s movement has been successful to varying degrees since it emerged (Bromley 2012, p.132).

Higgins in his book, Understanding the Chiapas Movement seeks to bring to view the Zapatistas as part and parcel of the Mexican history in regard to the encounter between the Mexican and Maya.

Higgins major concern is the fact that neoliberals is at stake and should be ...

1.In this story, the idea of ultimate Freedom is the freedom to opt out of the city, where one cannot question why a solitary child is consigned to misery in a basement cell, denying it basic human rights, seemingly for the greater good of the society. In other words, those who enjoy the many positive aspects of the society in the city of Omelas do not have the choice of questioning this single act of barbarity; neither does the child have any choice but to endure the confinement in pitiable conditions. Those who cannot put up with this, those who do ...

Analysis of "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin

"The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin contains a most unique theme of freedom within death. However, the miraculous and graceful way in which the character Mrs. Mallard meets freedom within death is exquisite. A sense of sadness is expected of a widow. Upon hearing of her husband’s passing Mrs. Mallard “wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment” indicating that she was indeed mourning her husband. Yet, Chopin twists descriptive adjectives like new, delicious, joy, dream and free into the description of Mrs. Mallard’s experience to promote a sense of freedom within an event that should be sad.

The story happens in the home of Louise Mallard in the late nineteenth century; however, the author, Chopin, does not state the precise location. The main character is Louise Mallard while minor characters include Brently Mallard (her husband), Josephine (her sister) and Richards (a friend to her husband).

One thing to remember is a ...

There are multiple faces and variances of feminism nowadays, differentiating both geographical as well as cultural (Dunand Zimmerman, 2013). The western feminism comprises the values of the developed and partly developing countries, whereas the African and Asian feminism comprises the values of these societies, where besides gender, race is another element that defines women and the feminism discourse (Dunand Zimmerman, 2013).

Article: Chicken Hips
1. Central Theme: In Chicken Hips, Catherine Piggott explores the concept of cultural construction of beauty. From Piggott’s story, it is clear that the Gambian people consider women to be beautiful when they have broad hips, swinging breasts and round thighs (paragraph 17). The Gambians despise thin–bodied women, which explains the nickname given to the author (chicken hips) due to her slender body. The people also celebrate being fat, and it does not bother them to have large portions of food in their meals (paragraph17). This is a stark contrast to the culture in ...
