California : Impact Of The Women's Movement In Relation To Political Participation
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Turn-of-the-century California politics has changed in many ways in comparison to contemporary politics, particularly with regard to the women's movement. Indeed, women's suffrage presented itself in quite fearless style as the country moved into the twentieth century, inasmuch as the women's movement had gained a significant amount of progressive power. The impact of such a movement was more than a bit alarming for those who did not believe women should maintain such important responsibilities as voting and political participation. Fast-forward to the twenty-first century, however, and one can readily argue that the women's movement of one hundred years ago set the stage for the overwhelming support and presence the California political system now maintains.

Camille Paglia
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses Camille Paglia, an undeniably controversial woman. As a humanities and media studies professor at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, Paglia is known for her remarkable intellect, her scathing criticism, and her outspokenness. She makes it clear that she has an opinion on virtually everything and if she does not have an opinion on something, it is clearly beneath her notice. In her tirades against feminist puritans and academic stagnation, she generates reactions which are never indifferent and generally as diverse as her own opinions. She has been both adored and vilified. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Canadian Women's Special Interest Groups: Undue Influence To Advance Their Own Agendas?
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Some scholars have accused organized interests of "undue influence" in the policy process and, in particular, of using the courts to advance their own narrow interests by way of circumventing the democratic (i.e. parliamentary) policy process. The manner by which the articles in Women's Legal Strategies in Canada address the controversy surrounding the issue of using courts to promote concerns of interest groups and social movements, as well as the evidence presented by the various authors in this collection edited by Radha Jhappan, helps to refute claims of "undue influence" by women's groups in the political and legal process. However, what must be realized is how the issues at hand are viewed as unworthy of acceptance via the traditional democratic process and in need of alternative means by which to be moved forward – such as with gay and lesbian rights, feminism and other female-related social movements – derogatorily branding these interest groups as "equality seekers" who are forced to circumvent an otherwise intolerant, patriarchal and hypocritical society that eschews the freedom inherent to social diversity. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Cary Churchill and Sylvia Plath: Similar Yet Different Feminists Messages in Literature
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page examination of Plath’s “The Bell Jar” and Churchill’s “Top Girl” and the underlying societal messages. The author of this paper contends that each of these women’s work is largely directed at the injustices of a patriarchal society. The manner in which these women deal with those injustices, however, vary considerably. Each utilizes their personal experiences to form the basis for political critique. While Plath does so from the individualist perspective, however, Churchill approaches said change from a societal standpoint. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Challenges and Limitations of Women Writers in the Early 20th Century: Examples from Works of Virginia Woolf and Rosamond Lehmann
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper describing the challenges and limitations faced by women writers in the early 20th century. Women writers of the late 19th and early 20th century were faced with many limitations and challenges in completing their work. Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) does a great deal to explain the challenges and roles of women writers within her work “A Room of One’s Own” in which she gives first hand observations of limitations imposed upon past, present and future women writers. In addition to these observations by Woolf, characters within her works such as those found in “To the Lighthouse” also reveal the constant struggle and conflict women must overcome to obtain their own identity. Other women writers during this time, such as Rosamond Lehmann (1901-1990) also demonstrate the frustrations found within the professional woman in defining her role. Lehmann’s character of Olivia Curtis in her works “Invitation to the Waltz” and “The Weather in the Streets” also reveal the author’s own feelings about the pre-defined roles of women in society and the challenges women face overcoming or dealing with these roles in order to meet their artistic, professional or emotional needs.
Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman/An Example of Heroism
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page research paper that argues that Gilman's life constitutes an example of heroism. Heroism is often equated with fighting in battle. While this is certainly brave, the soldier receives tremendous societal reinforcement and approval for such bravery. Heroism is also shown by those who go against the dictums of society and face social rejection and ostracism. It takes intense bravery and is extremely heroic to stand against societal mores and concepts that are widely accepted and say "This is wrong." In the nineteenth century, Charlotte Perkins Gilman took a stand diametrically opposed to the way in which women were treated during the Victorian era. Bibliography lists 1 source.
