Aristophanes' "The Birds": Would He Be Offended If It Were Recast With A Feminist Twist?
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Would Aristophanes have turned over in his grave if he had seen the following feminist production of his play The Birds? Indeed, one could readily argue that he would not be the least bit appalled at what the female director had done to transform his historical work into one that reflects modern day existence. Key to knowing that this is how Aristophanes would react is knowing a bit about his other works in which he openly touted the elements of feminism with much enthusiasm. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Book XXIV Of 'The Iliad'
[ send me this paper ]
Honor is at stake and for honor men will die. This 5 page critical review of the classic story of the battle of Troy introduces the idea that there are three threads of interest in the Iliad. The first is the war between the Achaeans and Trojans. This is the setting and the motivation for action. The second is the code of Honor that prevails for both sides. The issues of courage, the sanctity of marriage and friendship and the honor given to those who live the code. The third is the subplot being lived out by the Gods and Goddesses. All of these elements serve to give the reader an understanding of the motives and behaviors that rule the souls of men. The paper examines the final chapter in relation to the development of these concepts. No additional sources cited.
