    As of now, I am reading a realistic fiction text known as 'Girl in Pieces' by Kathleen Glasgow. In the text, Charolette Davis whom is the main character, has a passion for drawing. The first reason that supports this is because Davis lost track of time when she began to sketch. Her love for art made time fly, so she stayed up until the sun started to rise. The second reason that justifies Charolette's passion for drawing is because she is insecure about herself, except for her talent. Art is the one thing that Davis takes pride in, symbolizing that she is passionate about her gift. The third reason why I believe Charolette has a passion for drawing is because she persistantly imagines what she will sketch next. This indicates that Davis…

    The New Woman Analysis

    The New Woman was conveyed through the artists illustrations beginning in the 1880’s and continuing through the years, ending in the 1920’s. These images such as the works titled, “What Are We Coming To”, “In a Twentieth Century Club”, “Picturesque America”, and “Women Bachelors In New York”, all conveyed this idea of a “New Woman”. The qualities that a New Woman must have included a woman who pursued the highest education and made effort to move up in the professional world. “She (the New Woman) also demonstrated new patterns of private life, from shopping in the new urban department stores, to riding bicycles, and playing golf.” (pg. 374) The artists attempted to create this perfect all around woman who’s lives closely resembled what the men of that time were doing. Such as in figure 6.8 titled “In a Twentieth Century Club” which shows women dressed in clothing which closely resembled that of a mans attire for that era, at leisure, socializing with other woman. This “club” looked very similar to a men’s drinking and eating club. “ Although role reversal still provides the humor, the women waitresses and patrons are physically attractive, while the women’s unladylike posture and clothing would have been viewed as shocking equally significant is the cross dressing entertainer.” (pg. 374) Not only did artists attempt to convey a way that the New Woman should act, but they also created this popular physical image of what one should look like such as the Gibson Girls pictured in image 6.9. Most all of the illustrations showed a white woman of the leisure class, however African American women still envisioned and strived to become a New African American Woman.…

    Emily Dickinson seems to be in dismay, contain grief, be confused, and even jealous that it wasn't her or another that died in the woman's place. With all of these emotions in place, Justin Bryant’s note seems appropriate. He noted, “"The speaker never has one solid and stated attitude toward the woman's death". She switches her attitudes back and forth throughout the poem in her utter confusion.…
