    The Misogynistic Henry Higgins The key to understanding George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion lies in understanding the power struggle between the “haves” and “have-nots” – specifically the active and intentional disenfranchisement of women at the turn of the 20th century. At the core of Pygmalion there is a focus on the societal inequities of the day‚ with Shaw presenting society’s treatment of women as property without rights and with little understanding of their surroundings or place in society.

    I am delving into the complex and semiotic nature of deconstruction critism as a lens for the book Persepolis. I will be analyzing how the creators own words twist back against them‚ and gainsay what they previously said. I will use this lens is unearth the binary opposition of values or aphorisms in this book. I will overturn all manifestations of hypocrisy in all discourses from viewpoints on religion‚ and society to gender roles and sex. My credibility comes from my years of experience of deconstructing

I’m very curious about how Henry Higgins‚ in George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion‚ feels about his profession and how this translates to his interpretation of society. Higgins‚ a professor of phonetics‚ ultimately enters into a bet in which he is assigned the task of teaching a poor‚ uneducated yet determined girl from the streets

    George Bernard Shaw’s play Pygmalion sends me a few messages that he was either meaning to get out to his readers‚ or not.

Shaw delivers the message that finding one’s personal identity is of utmost importance while also conveying

    Post-Structuralism  Post-structuralism is a continuation and simultaneous rejection of structuralism – not only literary structuralism but even more so the anthropological structuralism of Levi-Strauss (Bertens‚ 2008: 93). * Post-structuralist thought has discovered the essentially unstable nature of signification. The sign is not so much a unit with two sides as a momentary ‘fix’ between two moving layers. Saussure had recognized that signifier and signified are two separate systems‚ but he
