    Judy Grahn The Common Woman Analysis

    I have chosen to write my annotated bibliography on “The Common Woman” poems by Judy Grahn. I will be focusing on the issue of the female stereotype along with sexism/misogyny. I chose this because each of the poems had a very strong message, but they all sounded like stories we had heard before. As a female, I feel like I am a natural feminist. These poems really stuck out to me because there is still people all around the world that feel that these portrayals of woman are in face “a common woman”. I am hoping to find analyses and research on these poems that tell me where each one got its story from. I am also hoping to find the reasons for writing these poems. What was her intention? In order to answer my questions, I will need to find…

    Personal Narrative: Samantha Seliger Swenson's Life

    College sports are very fun to watch when they come on. Especially when the games or events are at the decisive moments.

Samantha Seliger Swenson was born February 4, 1997 in Minnetonka, Minnesota to Vicki and Erik Seliger Swenson and she is one of my favorite collegiate volleyball players .

These events really motivated her to work hard and be the best she could be. The Seliger Swensons added on to their household 4 orphan cousins as a result of the passings of her aunt and uncle. They had rooms full of beds in their house and Sam said “It felt there was just one big bed big because all the beds had been so close together.’’ It wasn’t long before Vicki’s High School team contacted a show that improves on houses. The tv show agreed and expanded their three room house to a seven room house with 5,600 square feet. That was big enough for all the kids and parents.…

    Margaret Edison’s play Wit is about Vivian Bearing, a professor of seventeenth century poetry, specializing in John Donne. She is a strong willed intellectual being treated for ovarian cancer.

    An essay on Margaret Edson's play, "Wit" about Vivian Bearing dealing with her treatment of cancer.

    "How are you feeling today?" asked doctor Jason Posner in his usual automatic, inattentive salutation to Vivian, which is both humorous and distressing. There is a connection between Vivian Bearing and Jason Posner. Prepped for research and scholarship by Vivian herself (he took her class on the metaphysical poets) Jason possesses many of the same traits as Vivian. He is smart, ambitious, dedicated to the complexities of his medical research, and inept at human relations. Like Professor Bearing, who could be overbearing with her students, Jason prefers research to "the part with the human beings." Both Vivian and Jason are arrogant and unfeeling, much to their own detriment. Vivian is forced to temper her arrogance when illness becomes agony. Jason's arrogance causes him to make a serious blunder when he tries to resuscitate Vivian despite her do not resuscitate (DNR) orders.…

    Dear Miss Breed: The Diary Of A Young Girl

    How does a positive attitude help avoid conflict? According to Remez Sasson,”It brings optimism into your life, and makes it easier to avoid worries and negative thinking… you see the bright side of life” (Sasson). This shows that seeing the bright side of life will make all worries and negativity dissipate during tough challenges. During World War 2, many people used the method of positivity to endure the misery. From Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, Anne Frank tries to stay positive while in hiding. It was exceedingly challenging getting around without getting captured by the Nazi. Another novel is Dear Miss Breed: True Stories of the Incarceration During World War ll and a Librarian Who Made a Difference from Joanne Oppenheim. One of the many letters is from Louise Ogawa, and she, like all the other Japanese, had to go to an internment camp. To distance herself from the hardships, she tried to stay positive and think of the positive. Having a positive attitude is the best way to respond to conflict, especially during horrendous situations like World War 2.…

    One of the most unexpected parts of the interview was how Mrs. Woodson interpreted women of color’s self-esteem. While my research shows that African-American and Black girls have the highest self-esteem, Mrs. Woodson stated, “I think other ethnic groups probably have more self-esteem or portray they have more self-esteem.” This discussion about self-esteem among different female racial groups lead her to talk about her own daughter. She talked about how she would show her daughter articles of women, of color and of other races, who were achieving great things in many professional fields. With a combination of her high expectations for her daughter and influential role models, Mrs. Woodson feels her daughter was given the self-esteem and self-confidence…
