Hildegard of Bingen: Attitudes Toward Men And Women
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Hildegard of Bingen was considered a trendsetter of her time; not only did she speak openly of sexual relations between a man and a woman, but she addressed myriad other topics that, up until her literary candor, had only been discussed in private. One area in particular that Hildegard approached with vehemence and resolution is that of the importance of men and women within the context of society. These attitudes are generally equal in respect; however, the one point the can be argued as being more significant than the others relates to her opinion of Adam and Eve. In Causeae et Curae, she argued that if Adam had succumbed to the serpent instead of Eve, the original sin thus created would have been too strong to be overcome at all. Otherwise, she believed that the roles both men and women assume within the social environment are complementary, both required for the proper functioning of society. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Ibsen Meets Euripides (Nora and Medea)
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp). Remember some old saying that you heard
as a kid: The more things change, the more they
stay the same. As a kid the phrase did not make a
lot of sense, and by the time you were an adult,
you did not want it to be true, let alone make
sense. There is that same thread of commonality in
both of the female "heroes," in this discussion:
society has determined what their roles are and
how long they are to enact them. Enter Nora and
Medea, who both prove to have minds of their own.
