Towers Analia's mother died of a delirious fever when she was born and her father could not bear the sadness and two weeks later there was a pistol shot in the chest. He agonized for several days with his wife's name on his lips. His brother Eugenio administered lands and ordered the family destination of the little orphan at its discretion. Until six years Analia clinging to the skirts grew an Indian loves the service rooms of the house of his tutor and later, aged just had to go to school, was sent to the capital, internally at the College of the Sisters Sacred Heart, where he spent the next twelve years. It was a good student and loved the discipline, austerity of the stone building, the chapel with her court of saints and aroma of wax and lilies, naked riders, shady courtyards. What attracted her was less bustle of the pupils and the acrid smell of the classroom. Whenever he could escape the vigilance of the nuns, hiding in the attic, between decapitated statues and broken furniture, to tell stories themselves. In those stolen moments plunged in silence with the feeling of indulging in sin. Every six months received a short note from his uncle Eugenio recommending her to behave and honor the memory of his parents, who had been two good Christian life and be proud that his only daughter devote their existence to the highest precepts of the virtue, ie a novice entered the convent. But Analia him know from the first hint that he was not prepared to do and firmly maintained its position just to contradict him, because deep religious life liked. Hidden behind the habit, in solitude ultimate renunciation of any pleasure, perhaps you might find lasting peace, he thought, but his instinct warned him against the advice of his tutor. He suspected that his actions were motivated by the greed of land, rather than family loyalty. Nothing from him seemed trustworthy, at some loophole was cheating. When Analia was sixteen, his uncle came to visit the

    Venetian High Renassaince

    • 929 Words

    Women’s role in the literary scene of the Venetian High Renaissance greatly erupted in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Women eventually became the most educated citizens in the city and were referred to as, “honest courtesans.” (Pg. 624) Our textbook outlines how women, “dominated” the literary scene with their fierce ability to be, “both sexual and intellectual.” (Pg. 624) Although there were many great poets of the Venetian High Renaissance, I will limit this essay to analyzing the amazing poems of only four very influential poets of this time. I will discuss how Veronica Franco intelligently transforms courtly love into sexual metaphor. I will identify the missing elements of chivalry and courtly love in Ludovico Aristo’s “Orlando Furioso”, and I will compare Lucretia Marinellas views in “The Nobility and Excellence of Women” to those of Laura Cereta’s.…

    In the introduction of this chapter, we learn that on November 28th, 1595 Gaspar de Peralta, a judge for the Royal Audiencia of Charcas, answered a call from his next-door neighbor’s house. Once he entered the house, he found a domestic horror scene. Having entered the bedroom, Peralta found his chief scribe and the secretary of the audiencia (Fernando de Medina) standing over the bloody bodies of his wife and her lover, Beatriz Gonzalez. Fernando de Medina (the Husband) immediately confessed to murdering his wife and her love. He proceeded to tell the judge of his wife’s long- term affair with Beatriz Gonzalez. Fernando de Medina believed that it was his right to defend his honor. One of the first documents was a statement from Medina, saying that in no point in time in the twenty-seven years or so of marriage had he given his wife a reason to be unfaithful. In the document he explained that over the twenty-seven years he had moved from place to place and he always provided his wife with everything she’d ever needed. She provided him with two children and they all were all well taken care of. The last and final move though was she meets her “new suitor” in the garden. He goes on to say that Gonzalez and his wife would use any opportunity and location to be together. They used his (the husband) home, or the lovers, she would either wear her own clothes or try to hide their relationship and wear men’s clothing. In this passage the husband feels he has to defend his honor because he found out that all of his servants were aware of this affair.…

    The year is 1942. Families living in their most beloved country, the United States of America, stare at their radio sets in onset fear as they witness secondhand one of the most destructive and harrowing events in the history of their country. Standing before all this is a man who has gone through tough and harsh times, due to an illness he has contracted earlier in his life. The man is Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and he must now deliver one of the most heroic speeches his land will ever need. Similar to Roosevelt, there are many people in both history and literature who have been plagued with an illness or wound. These people either step down to the wound, or learn to overcome it. The “Unhealable Wound” is a reoccurring archetype in literature, expressing an injury or defect that a character must learn to beat in order to stay alive or acquire success. In A Separate Peace, Finny shatters his leg and must learn to forget sports and move on with his life. In The Poisonwood Bible, Adah Price is born with a limp and minor paralysis of the left side of her body. She is looked at as an inferior to her sisters, and must learn how to ignore this constant criticism. It is necessary for these two characters, as well as FDR, to ignore their “wound” in order to be successful and happy.…

    When analyzing readings and writings of academic discourse, readings and writings found outside the college setting, there are common patterns and disciplines that are evident in these writings. In her essay titled “Teaching the Conventions of Academic Discourse” English professor Teresa Thonney argues that “there are shared features that unite academic writing and that by introducing these features to first year students we provide them with knowledge they can apply and refine in each new discipline they encounter”(Thonney 347). By saying this, she believes that showing these conventions to undergrad students, it will prepare them to read and write academic texts. In her essay, she discusses six standard moves that she finds while analyzing twenty-four research articles, articles which were randomly selected from peer-reviewed journals.…

    Fantasy Faces Reality

    The fantasy and reality are faced at beginning of the story by symbolizing the priest’s death. When the boy narrates about the priest that reads, "’He had been a very charitable priest; in his will he had left all his money to institutions and the furnitures of his house to his sister’" (302). It makes the boy thinks him as a sneer, for it implies that the priest, by having a fortune, might not have been faithful to his position, and by handing his furnitures over to his sister, might not have yet been free from secular ties of family relations. When the priest writes the will, he might believe that he will be charitable and respected by people, but his fantasy is broken by leaving his furnitures to his sister. As an old priest, even if he had been inherited a big fortune, he might have donated the fortune to the society if he had been charitable. It is somehow not delightful to see a wealthy minister, who is supposed to be poor and honorable, especially in the times of poverty.…
