A big theme in the Song of Roland is the thought of an all benevolent and all-kind God. People in The Song of Roland assume that God will step into events and help them it they submit to him. It seems believable that deciding the verdict at Ganelon’s trial should be done by combat‚ because God will supposedly aid the man in the right‚ and yet evil things happen.

Beyonce’s song ***Flawless is part of our current feminist movement. It promotes female empowerment while breaking down stereotypes and norms.

Personally‚ what I find is troubling in this song actually appears in the
