The Greenwich Village Community: Sexual Politics, The Lyric Left and Edna St. Vincent Millay
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 9 page paper discussing the sexual politics within the lyric left from the Greenwich Village community. The New York Greenwich Village community in the late 19th and throughout the 20th century became the center for writers, journalists and artists all promoting ideas and lifestyle representing the political and sexual left including feminism, bohemianism, bisexuality, homosexuality and overall freedom of thought and action. Much of the writing which came from Greenwich was considered within the realm of the “lyric left” through the works of Jack Kerouac, Djuna Barnes, Sinclair Lewis, Willa Cather and especially Edna St. Vincent Millay among many others. Millay wrote a great many poems which not only revealed the bohemian and “radical sexual” conduct within the lifestyles of her and her colleagues but also commented on the fullest extent of feminism in which women can feel sexual desire and needs in addition to having control over their own lives and sexual fulfillment. At the same time, her poems also show the conflict which still existed between men and women and her own desire to overcome any restrictions carried over from the previous Victorian expectations.

The Hemingway Code in A Farewell to Arms
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page paper examining five of the Hemingway codes in this novel. Hemingway assigned life to a series of codes by which individuals lived, either serially or concurrently. He saw lives as compartmentalized with bits and pieces fitting into neat categories but never attaining more than only momentary joy. A Farewell to Arms is alternately hopeful and hopeless; the hopeless state wins in the end, as it must in Hemingway's painful perspective. The paper uses quotes to illustrate the five codes.
