Full textThis research study seeks to answer the question of whether or not televisions advertisements’ depictions of female body image influences eating disorders in the young women who view such advertisements. The role of the cognitive processes social comparison theory and thin-ideal internalization was also explored as mediators in this relationship, as well as the efficiency of various programs aimed at correcting the problem of eating disorders in young women. Results were obtained by coding and observing the advertisements of various television programs popular among such a demographic. Messages encouraging thinness were recorded, as well as the percentage of thin actresses viewed. After analyzing the results and reviewing recent research on the problem, the conclusion was made there is likely a relationship between eating disorders and the depiction of the thin-ideal in advertising, however such a relationship is largely dependent on the female viewer herself, andmany other factors

Full textArthur Millers pjäs The Crucible skildrar häxprocesserna i Salem 1692-1693, en historisk händelse som kan anses vara genomsyrad av patriarkalt förtryck. Trots författarens uttalade förakt gentemot häxprocessernas grymhet finns det tydliga och återkommande patriarkala strukturer i den stundom misogyna pjäsen, särskilt i dess kvinnoporträtt. Denna uppsats visar hur de två kvinnliga huvudkaraktärerena Abigail Williams och Elizabeth Proctor fungerar som representationer av binära motsatser baserade på den patriarkala idén om två kategorier av kvinnor: den ’dåliga flickan’ och den ’duktiga flickan’, vilka förstärker synen på kvinnor som onyanserade objekt snarare än mångfacetterade subjekt. Genom att argumentera för hur Abigail och Elizabeth representerar de binära paren ’självisk/självuppoffrande’ och ’promiskuös/frigid’ finner denna uppsats att Abigail och Elizabeth är porträtterade som ’antingen/eller’ och att den onyanserade karaktäriseringen resulterar i en osympatisk läsning av dem. Slutligen påvisar uppsatsen att oavsett om kvinnan är en ’duktig flicka’ eller en ’dålig flicka’ blir hon socialt bestraffad eller försedd med osmickrande karaktärsdrag i syfte att inte konkurrera med den manliga protagonisten om läsarens sympati.

This paper seeks to explore Edward Hopper’s depiction of modern women can be viewed as a remolding of the archetypal women in Greek mythology. To further discuss the recasting of female archetypes in modern American settings, I have collected fifteen poems which were inspired by Edward Hopper’s paintings. Also, I have translated these poems into Chinese, which has helped me in acquiring a deeper understanding of the texts. To make a comparison with six mythical females, the fifteen poems are divided into three categories in terms of the roles women have long been expected to play in our society. This paper thus conducts an analysis of both Edward Hopper’s paintings and the responses of contemporary poets to his portrayal of women. According to Carl Gustav Jung’s idea, the term “archetype” serves as a “collective unconsciousness” (3); a prime example of this is the complex characteristics Edward Hopper projected on his wife and only female model, Josephine Hopper (1883-1968), which bear resemblance to the images of modern women shaped by contemporary poets and the reflections of six women in Greek mythology: Penelope, with her astounding endurance to wait for her husband; Andromache, who lacks the authority to stop the outbreak of war yet knows better than anyone the reality of human limitations; the Sirens, with euphonious but deadly voices; the beautiful witch Circe, with her magic power to transform valiant sailors into dirty swine; the nymph Calypso, smothering a man with deceitful love; and the ferocious witch Medea, sacrificing her children in revenge for a man’s betrayal. Influenced by a strong sense of uncertainty and anxiety toward the rapidly changing society in America, Hopper’s paintings were generally based on the themes of loneliness and alienation. While stressing the indifferent relationships among modern people, Hopper used the color red to depict men’s desire and an inexplicable fear toward women’s rising self-awareness. This is perhaps best exemplified by Hopper and Josephine’s marital relationship, which was built upon reciprocal respect and mutual competitiveness. Thus, from Hopper’s special ways of depicting Josephine, this paper shows that Hopper’s art chronicled the dynamic changes in American gender relations.

Wu Mei Tsun , as a remarkable poet in the Ming – Ching dynastic, writes a series of poetry that depicts women delicately to express his own feelings.During this process, a further question is that: How did he project image of his private self and mourn for Ming dynasty, enable his readers to understand him as well in a forbidden rough situation? First, women in Wu Mei Tsun’s poetry are clues to reveal the connection between the poet and his experiences of suffering and trauma. Hence, Wu Mei Tsun’s self-concealment and self-expression should be appeared in his poetry. The study comprises of five chapters. In first Chapter, the conception will be explained, literature review is also concluded. The second chapter aims at those women who had lived in Qinhuai, Nanjing. In Wu Mei Tsun’s poetry, Chu Godness and Xi-shi Beauty are symbols of Qinhuai Women. The talated ladies who shared literature ideas with Wu Mei Tsun are discussed in the third chapter, to deeply personal feelings, the poet’s wife and daughters are analyzed as well. In addition, Wu Mei Tsun was a former dynasty Ming official, served dynasty Ching and it gets him in disrepute. The moral dilemma Wu Mei Tsun faced and the panacea, redemption from religions describe in the fourth chapter. From the previous chapters, it can be seen that women in Wu Mei Tsun’s poetry are crucial to understand the poet. To conclude, Wu Mei Tsun was understood through the poetry; furthermore, the desire to be understood remains his main obsession, for fear of oblivion or misinterpretation.
