My Antonia
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The duality of Willa Cather's portrayal in My Antonia represents the inherent dichotomy that exists between beauty and fear. Eloquently depicted and especially appealing to the senses, My Antonia is far more than a book that one reads, experiences, sets down and then forgets; rather, it is one that transcends the literary boundaries that separate reality from fantasy. The writer discusses how the haunting interpretation of a pioneer woman's difficult life is filled with aesthetically entrancing visuals, as well as formidable and unpredictable changes of such an existence. No additional sources cited.

My Antonia: Conventional Vs. Unconventional Roles Of Women
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The duality of Willa Cather's portrayal of women in My Antonia represents the inherent dichotomy that exists between conventionality and unconventionality. A longstanding debate has raged ever since the author penned her account of a woman torn between traditional gender representation and that which is not considered conventional. The argument within the literary world revolves around the feminist approach, with some critics contending that Antonia represents the archetypal female who awakens to her innate functions as a woman. The writer presents a review of literary opinions in relation to how women's roles are portrayed in My Antonia. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Willa Cather's 'Paul's Case' / Conflict and Illusion
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper on Willa Cather's psychological portrait of a troubled teen. The paper concludes that Paul's rebellion pits far more than father against son, or the exquisite against the drab, or illusion against reality. It calls the very nature of reality into question, and strongly suggests that reality is relative to each individual.
