Comparison/Chopin & Stoker
[ send me this essay ]
A 10 page research paper/essay that examines Kate Chopin's novel The Awakening (1899) and Bram Stoker's Dracula (1897). The writer argues that these works provide readers with vastly different conceptualizations of fantasy, sexuality and race. Chopin addresses the negative consequences of a woman's sexual awakening and her eventual suicide to escape the restrictions of Victorian society on female life. Stoker creates a fantasy in which an Eastern European monster preys on innocent English women and children. Examination of these two works shows that while these two authors each address common themes, they do so from diametrically opposed positions. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Comparisons and Contrasts Regarding Social Class and Human Happiness in the Works of Alexander Pope, Jonathan Swift and Daniel Defoe
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing social class and human happiness found in the works of Pope, Swift and Defoe. The 18th century writings of Alexander Pope, Jonathan Swift and Daniel Defoe reveal much of the attitudes of the time in which adherence to social class is directly related to human happiness. Pope however in “The Rape of the Lock” and “Essay on Man” tends to cross traditional views by venturing that happiness is meant to be equally enjoyed by all men and women and strict confinement of social conventions can cause undue damage to happiness. Swift in “Gulliver’s Travels” reveals how man’s perception of society, respect, laws and happiness are solely based on those learned within his or her own society and are different in different cultures opening the readers to the concept that not all conventions are universal. Lastly, Defoe in “Moll Flanders” is the most adamant in the writing of Moll who tries to better her station in life and only bring unhappiness to herself and those around her for attempting to do so. Example quotes are used from each work. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
