The Faerie Queene
[ send me this paper ]
Every person in every society and from every age has 'quested' after what they belief is the unattainable - whether it is a knowledge of the unknown or the ability to love perfectly in an imperfect world - or whether it is an object or symbolic metaphor - these 'quests' often result in symbols and rituals of their own. This 5 page paper proposes that Redcrosse, the knight from the first book of the Faerie Queene by Spenser, represents both Justice and the Christian religion in his role as hero.

The Female Characters of George Eliot:
[ send me this paper ]
This 22 page report
discusses the writer George Eliot (1819-1880) and her remarkable
ability to present the women of Victorian England to the literary
world. Typically, Victorian literature presents an idealization
of women as passionless and innately virtuous models of feminine
behavior. Eliot came to occupy a central position in English
literary circles and was thought of as bold and unconventional in
both her personal life and her work. Her writing most often
compares industrialization with the halcyon and generally rural
archetype and offers a discourse on the limitations and suffering
caused by gender and class discrimination, as well as individual
characters’ struggles with their personal moral development and
their relationships with others. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
