This has been a post I’ve been meaning to write for a long time. I’m an absolutely die-hard fan of Sailor Moon‚ and part of that is because it served as my childhood introduction to feminism. That might be a little bit hard to believe‚ considering the super heroines of the show are known for outfits not much more revealing than Wonder Woman’s. Silly outfits aside (you get used to them)‚ this show was absolutely groundbreaking. Its protagonists are 10 realistically flawed‚ individual and talented

In this context‚ we can compare the two characters of Melville’s Billy Budd and Camus’s Meursault. These two narratives have the same equivocal situation. From one point

This is Naoko Takeuchi’s original vision for Sailor Moon. When asked about the differences between the anime and manga‚ she replied that the anime’s staff was men‚ while her story was told from a women’s perspective- by girls‚ for girls and about girls. (Especially obvious since the manga lacks a lot of the male gaze and has none of the nude transformation sequences or skirts flying up the anime boasts‚ as well as other things) (and don’t get me wrong‚ the anime is fantastic and feminist as

Melville’s Billy Budd‚ Melville uses the literary device of foreshadowing to allow the audience to be aware of Billy’s inevitable fate before the characters in the novel‚ thus creating a feeling of suspense within the novel. In chapter one‚ the incident with the Red Whiskers (12) functions as a foreshadowing of Billy’s confrontation with Claggart. This is very similar to what happens later between John Claggart and Billy (58). Melville uses the incident to show that although Billy Budd is a gentle man

Throughout the exciting tale in the novel Billy Budd by Herman Melville‚ the complex character Captain Vere is developed in two different ways: he is portrayed as a martinet or strict disciplinarian and as a gentle fatherly figure. I can guess these different portrayals of Captain Vere apply in the corresponding different situation. I think both of these portrayals fit Vere’s character well in different situations. Some of the ways Vere shows these two personalities are through how he interacts with

Critical Essay on Billy Budd Charles Reich ’s assessment of the conflict in Billy Budd focuses on the distinction between the laws of society and the laws of nature. Human law says that men are "the sum total of their actions‚ and no more." Reich uses this as a basis for his assertion that Billy is innocent in what he is‚ not what he does. The point of the novel is therefore not to analyze the good and evil in Billy or Claggart‚ but to put the reader in the position of Captain Vere‚ who must interpret
