    Roland is not depicted as a hero in every way. In what particular way does his heroism cause him to fail himself and others‚ and what does that tell us about the culture out of which the poem emerges? The Song of Roland is a heroic epic that depicts the tragic defeat of Roland‚ the courageous leader of Charlemagne’s army. Within the epic Roland is not depicted as a hero in every way. I believe that Roland’s pride eventually becomes the root cause of his failure to himself and to others. It is this

They don’t even have to work with people; they could be designing a product that helps many

    Men’s repeated abandonment of women in Song of Solomon shows that the novel’s female characters suffer a double burden. Not only are women oppressed by racism‚ but they must also pay the price for men’s freedom. Guitar tells Milkman that black men are the unacknowledged workhorses of humanity‚ but the novel’s events imply that black women more correctly fit this description. The scenes that describe women’s abandonment show that in the novel‚ men bear responsibility only for themselves‚ but women
