    Kandoba at Jajori and the poem is thus against this setting. "An Old Woman" is a graphic picture of a beggar woman. Having lost the promises of her past‚ she is reduced to her present state. As the speaker views her squarely‚ he‚ in a sort of ’revelation’‚ becomes aware of the decay which has set in her person and which is extended to the decaying tradition symbolized by the hills and the temples. Without using many words‚ the old woman forces the narrator to look at her from closed quarters. It is

    Phenomenal Woman

    • 3 Pages

    Phenomenal Woman is a dramatic poem by Maya Angelou about the love a woman has for herself even with her flaws.

Through her poem‚ Angelou speaks to all women‚ beautiful or

Woman was idealised: the angel in the house‚ the wife complementing her husband‚ the helpmate of man. Social conditions offered the Victorian woman little in occupation so her aim in life was to secure a husband‚ succumbing to the political propaganda. As Foster states: Because

    Is No Unmarked Woman”‚ Deborah Tannen explains it best through the statement that “There is no unmarked woman” (Tannen 412). No matter what hairstyle‚ clothes‚ shoes‚ or style a woman may choose to wear‚ every one of her decisions will convey a meaning to the public. “If a woman’s clothing is tight or revealing…it sends a message…If her clothes are not sexy‚ that too sends a message…” (Tannen 412). There are even instances where the clothes are not the cause of criticism‚ for a woman may be criticized
