Women during this time were submissive‚ uneducated‚ and had no say

The preoccupation with Jesse James and the outlaw‚ the rebel‚ much of that is associated in the American mindset‚ the collective imagination of the nation‚ with the expansion of the frontier. In the history of American social imagination‚ the violent man using the gun to defend his family‚ his kid‚ and kind‚ becomes a suitable metaphor for the notion of manhood.” In Byron

Simon Thomson The construction of masculinity in Beowulf: hæleð under heofenum or selerædenne? As it opens‚ Beowulf appears to leap confidently‚ taking audience with narrator into the shared world of story with wit and certainty: Hwæt! We gardena in geardagum (l.1) Listen! We of the Spear Danes in the past days...1 Immediately‚ however‚ this certainty becomes qualified: we are not part of an admiring audience to the glittering past‚ and have not heard of the gardena themselves

from Google: an adult person‚ as distinguished from a boy or a woman? Or do we base it off of characteristics and accomplishments? Since they’ve lost all traditional definitions of masculinity‚ physical dominance‚ social importance‚ financial achievement: is it time for them to strike out and define a new masculinity that acknowledges whom they are but also to the world in which they were born?

The speech Macbeth gives upon hearing his wife’s death in act V scene V is a representation of the theme cruelty in relation to masculinity; men are only respected when they are cruel. With Macbeth’s rise to power‚ his want for respect changes him. Macbeth was full of loyalty and respect in the beginning of the play.
