2	Other: Poems Childress, Catherine Pritchard 01 May 2013 (has links) (PDF) This creative thesis is a collection of original poems entitled Other. The poems in Other reflect my study of the aesthetics of poetry as well as that of how women are represented as poets and as the subject of poems. Some of these poems are the product of my particular interest in the use of persona. Most reflect my desire to achieve self-reflection, to write from my experiences and perception, while still maintaining the universality that is an essential element of successful poems. The critical introduction situates my poems within the framework of the poetic mode Personal Classicism—poetry that is emotionally based but relies on formal techniques and controlled elements in order to maintain distance. My primary goal in the critical introduction is to link my poems to the Personal Classicist lineage, which includes H.D., Elizabeth Bishop, and Louise Gluck – to whom I will pay particular attention. poetry poems Personal Classicism women's poetry personae Biblical women in poetry Arts and Humanities Creative Writing Poetry
3	The role and position of Jewish women between 200 BCE - 200 CE Lief, Hélène Rhona 11 1900 (has links) This dissertation examines the role and position of Jewish women in the Near East between 200 BCE - 200 CE. This was a very important period in Jewish legal and cultural history. The redaction of the Mishnah, the oldest extant body of Jewish law, was completed at approximately the end of the time under review, and was to have a lasting influence on the Jewish people. No society exists in a vacuum. During these years the Jews lived within the GraecoRoman Empire and this reflected on their attitudes towards women. To appreciate this it has been necessary to go back in time to the Hebrew Bible and to trace any attitudinal changes which occurred over the centuries. Although the Mishnah has been regarded as the terminus ad quem of this investigation, brief mention is also made of prevailing attitudes affecting women in present day Jewish society. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.A. (Judaica) Biblical women Apocryphal writings relating to women Mishnaic attitude to women Women in the GraecoRoman world Josephus and his attitudes to women Philo's assessment of women Women leaders in the ancient synagogues Feminism 909.04924082 Women in the Bible Jewish women Women in Judaism
