Use of the Word "Druncen" in Beowulf
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper discussing, as the title explains, the use of the word "druncen" (i.e., drunken) in this epic. It is apparent that the poet's use of "druncen" is less mysterious than most translators have been willing to believe. Reading the meaning at face value generally makes more sense of the poet's descriptions and explanations, though it indeed can diminish the image of the hero and the heroism to which he is supposed to be dedicated. One factor that these translators have not considered is that by making the hero more "human," he in fact becomes even that more heroic. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Use/Misuse of the Body/2 Examples
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 essay that contrasts and compares feminist issues in Mary Rowlandson's narrative and Samuel Richardson's novel Pamela. In 1675, Mary Rowlandson's home was attacked by Indians and she was abducted. She later recorded and published a narrative that gave an account of her captivity. Roughly a half-century later, Samuel Richardson's novel Pamela also includes a narrative of captivity. Both texts address the use and misuse of bodies. This examination of these two texts focuses on three examples from each text of use/misuse of bodies and the patterns/themes that this reveals about societal context in which the female body was perceived. No additional sources cited.

Using Comedy To Explore Social Issues
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page essay that discusses Alan Ayckbourn’s Comic Potential and Martin McDonagh’s The Lieutenant of Inishmore share a common feature. In each instance, the playwright uses comedy in order to make some serious observations about human nature and the way in which people relate to one another. Characterizations, dialogue, plot structure and props, every element of stage craft is combined in these plays in ways that are quite funny, as well as tragic, which results in their respective audiences being forced to ponder the absurd nature of aspects of contemporary society. Examination of these plays demonstrates the manner I which these gifted playwrights create these similarities in these two very different plays. No additional sources cited.
