Political Cartoon
The role of women in America take a toll purpose in life as strong, prepared and well-equipped beings, but with their side effects of emotional torture like Anne Bradstreet in her poems of love, desperation, sorrow, and sadness. In the political cartoon a women is seen writing a quote that some women who have problems go through in their lives which was "Women's Sphere is (Crossed-out The Home) Wherever She Makes Good" on the blackboard. This shows reference to Anne Bradstreet because she wanted to make the best relationship with her husband throughout the fact that he was gone a lot with the caution of Anne in fear of losing him. Much like Anne the woman in the cartoon feels a deal of pain but strength to get over the situation similar like when Anne's house burned down. Anne had to make a choice of either crying because her house and possessions where burned and destroyed or suck it up because of the Puritan's belief of you not crying over some things because God doesn't want that. In conclusion, women's role in America are in the essence of survival and gratitude that we men should endure.

Reflection: I feel that out of all off the Anne Bradstreet's, my favorite was "In Reference To Her Children". That poem gave a straight forward reference to society now when a mother raises her young to grow into adults, and when their grown-up, they have to let them live their life. In my opinion I like how her falsity of using her children as birds by her being the mother-bird who hatched her baby birds, and has to raise them to be on their own. Anne uses her babies when they have to learn how to fly as a phrase, when they have to live on their own and I feel was a great resemblance to life. This should be a lesson to children and parents that they love you and want to protect you always, and that your kids are gonna need their space to that they can prepare for the world when their older.
Diary: Hello, I'm Anne Bradstreet, a poet, mother, and wife living in the 1800 century doing what any other woman being the housekeeper. I focus on my true goal after all this stuff I do, and that's poetry and I've been writing for quite a while because it helps me get me threw my life. I've written over thirty poems but there are three that really show the things I have been through which are "In Reference To Her Children", "To My Dear and Loving Husband", and "Verses The Burning Of Her House"."In Reference To Her Children"which dealt with the Coming Of Age of my children, "To My Dear and Loving Husband" which dealt with the feeling of me and my husband relationship when away, and "Verses The Burning Of Her House" which dealt with the burning of my house and my most prized possessions. Overall, my favorite is "In Reference To Her Children" because it reminds me of my children but, all my poems are like my children which I cherish in my life.
It seems to me that you had a good political cartoon responce but when I first read the political cartoon I thought it ment how women, after all they have tried and faught, they are still seen as lesser than men. I initally thought that this cartoon suggested that women's place is where ever a man tells her to be. Like a pet for the men. Then when I read what you said I agreed with you on what you said. You and I saw it from to completely different points of view, but its funny because the conclution sentence expresses my point of view too. So you did a very nice job of conveying two points of view into one paragraph. Also I liked it how you put two refrences to Anne Bradstreet not just on or the other.
ReplyDeleteI also think that it would be a good idea to answer the essencial question. Regardless if it is required or not it would be a good idea to answer it and maybe refer back to your political cartoon in it. Maybe say something about how it is different to be a man in America as opposed to a women in America.
You did a great job!
