The Aesthetics Of Storytelling And Literary Criticism As Mythological Ritual: The Myth Of The Human Tragic Hero, Intertextual Comparisons Between The Heroes And Monsters Of Beowulf And The Anglo-Saxon Exodus, Daniel Stoll 2020 East Tennessee State University

The Aesthetics Of Storytelling And Literary Criticism As Mythological Ritual: The Myth Of The Human Tragic Hero, Intertextual Comparisons Between The Heroes And Monsters Of Beowulf And The Anglo-Saxon Exodus, Daniel Stoll

Undergraduate Honors Theses

For thousands of years, people have been hearing, reading, and interpreting stories and myths in light of their own experience. To read a work by a different author living in a different era and setting, people tend to imagine works of literature to be something they are not.

Rather than this being a defense, I would rather call it a musing, …

Hair And Power In Ovidian Love Elegy; A Discussion Of Feminine Dominance And The Hair Apparent, Lydia Eisenberg 2020 University of Mary Washington

Hair And Power In Ovidian Love Elegy; A Discussion Of Feminine Dominance And The Hair Apparent, Lydia Eisenberg

Departmental Honors & Graduate Capstone Projects

When considering the love elegy of Ovid, there are multiple cases in which love, beauty, or infatuation with a woman is expressed through visual descriptions of her hair.

However, the nature of the hair description reduces Ovid’s view of feminine beauty to an objective one, revealing a disingenuous view of feminine power and …
