    The feminist idea was designed to define, establish, and defend equal political, economic, and social rights for women. In the articles Taking a Bite Out of Twilight, written by Carmen D. Siering an assistant professor of English and women’s studies at Bell State University, and Two Ways a Women Can Get Hurt, written by Jean Kilbourne who is an award winning author and educator, the idea of feminism in today’s media is questioned. Seiring writes about a popular book, titled Twilight, and how the main female character of the novel goes against the idea of feminism. Kilbourne, however, writes about how advertising in today’s society is portraying women in a distinctively non-feminist way. Both authors are trying to convey to their readers that women are still being subconsciously shown in a negative light.…

    Short Story Carmilla

    • 4 Pages

    Le Fanu’s story of Carmilla has been adapted as a web series, in which the setting is modern day society at a college campus. Laura remains the narrator of the thirty-six-episode season, where she records all events from her dorm room as part of her journalism class. The web series stays loyal to having Carmilla remain the female vampire in the story, while also implying other female romantic relationships. In the short story Le Fanu’s choice of a female vampire alters the way in which the audience reads the relationship between Carmilla and Laura, particularly because there is a romantic and sensual relationship that develops between these characters. The relationship between two women during Le Fanu’s time implies the confined gender roles that had been situated within his society, and the threat that female sexuality imposed. Whereas the adaptation normalizes the sexual and romantic relationship between women because modern society is more accepting of homosexuality. The theme of female desire in the short story emphasizes the fears of violating social norms of conformity as a woman, whereas the web series uses female desire to emphasize the power women have in modern society.…
