  • Literature Review: Atheism & Performance

    Literature Review: Atheism & Performance

    Because our society is mostly Christian, most of the entertainment industry caters to that idea. Theatre has made references to Christianity throughout centuries; however no one has performed atheism. To prove this notion, it is important to prove Christianity in theatre really exists to begin with. In "The Laughing Dead and the Lively (or was it lovely?) Virgin," the authors trace the relationships between theatre, ritual, circus and Christianity (Bosque 1). It examines the New

  • Review of Unforgiven

    Review of Unforgiven

    Produced and directed by Clint Eastwood, Unforgiven is simply the most realistic western ever put to film. Never before has a movie so faithfully captured what the old west was really like, while at the same time delivering a message about how nothing good ever comes from violence. It's no surprise that the film easily walked away with the Best Picture Academy Award for 1992. When a customer cuts up a prostitute and goes unpunished,

Also the movie was good at illustrating the action of the play while still having a very dramatic ending. This movie was about a girl and a boy who fall in love but are of different sides

    Compare/contrast the Treatment of Femininity in Pygmalion and Medea

    Historically, the treatment of femininity in literature is wide ranging. Some texts explore the feelings and responsibilities involved with typically feminine traits such as motherhood and in social environments, while others highlight more feminist issues such as the struggle for equality and male oppression. Authors of both sexes have made major contributions to this area in literature but it remains surprising that male writers have been able to perceptively portray women above their previously subordinate
