    The city of Mumbai has seen much growth in the past years. A string of elegant hotels have been set up for travelers and high-class business men. An ever growing, top of the line airport has been built for those coming in and out of the country. From the outside, Mumbai seems to have taken a liking to being internationally integrated with the rest of world, otherwise known as globalization. This is not the case, however; as seen in Katherine Boo’s novel Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life, Death, and Hope in a Mumbai Undercity. This novel is set in a slum right next to the Mumbai International Airport called Annawadi. It focuses mainly on the life and story of the stories main character. Abdul Husein and his family make a living by selling scrap metal tossed out by the upper class of Mumbai. When looking at Abdul’s story, one can see the corruption that made it near impossible for globalization to have a positive effect on Annawadi. Abdul’s relationship with his neighbor, the unstable, one-legged Fatima, also shows how neighborhood relationships were a hindrance to Annawadi’s ability to be a part of Mumbai’s globalization.…

    Additionally, the title of Hrotsvit of Gandersheim’s play was changed which also denies Mary of her emotions and experiences. Evitt writes, “Originally titled Abraham by its early editors, Hrotsvit’s complete incipit title for this play reads…The Fall and Repentance of Mary, the Niece of the Hermit Abraham,” (357). By changing the title of the play, Mary becomes another woman who is denied rights in a patriarchal society. In Katharina M. Wilson’s translation, she places Hrotsvit’s original title in the introduction to the play, instead of using it as the title (124). The plays by Hrotsvit follow this same idea of antifeminist societal views, giving men control over women’s bodies (Sperberg-McQueen 48). Likewise, in a patriarchal society, they…
