Analysis of Women's Role

Women in Athenian society were not as important as men.
Women had no voice of opinion. Women were expected to do as they are told by the men.
"Your great glory is not to be inferior to what God has made you, and the greatest glory of a women is to be least talked about by men, whether they are praising you or criticizing you."-Pericles

Poems by Sappho

1. The poem I understood best was "To Aphrodite of..." the poem talks about the holy temple. The poem takes you their it sounds so peaceful and relaxing.
3.The speaker has much respect for the person in "He is more than a Hero". She sees him as a god figure, and has much power. The setting in "To Aphrodite..." is a holy temple of nature. She talks about the apple trees, rose and meadows. Mother nature is a beauty. In "Some say thorning..." The speaker talks about Helen of Troy and she thinks of Anctoria's absence because she misses her friend.
4. Sappho values intimate moments of friendship in two of the poems she talks about past friendshios. Sappho also appreciates the beauty of nature. She observer her surroundings.
6. I think the contemporary singer would be Natasha Bedingfield. In her music she talks about nature. The poems sound very mellow and that is how Natashas music sound to my ears.

Say No to Drugs!

Drugs are a big problem now a days lots of kids are giving into the pressure but, drugs are not the solution. To prevent your children from doing drugs you need to talk to them at an early age.

2. The Olympian gods showed human qualities for example love, hate, and jelousy. The Olympian gods were different from humans because they lived forever and had the ultimate power.

Egyptian Literature

2. The tone of Nu's speech is very sure. He knows what he is going to do and grant.
3. The speaker in Adoration of the Disk thinks Ra should be praised because he brings life to living things.
4. In "I'm going down stream on Kingswater Canal"the speaker is delighted in dreamimg of herself standing like a bridge next to her love because she is in love and hoping that he will be with her forever. That their love will never die.
6. When I leave you, I go out of breath gave me a sense of the speaker as a person. The speaker talks how she need a mans love, and that was her holy gift from God.
7. The two poems "I'm going downstream on Kingswater Canal" and "Whenever I leave you, I go out of breath" differ in many ways. For instance in "Im going downstream..." she wants here true love to be with her and in "When I leave you..." she awaits for her love. He takes her breath away.
8. Their attitude compare to my society a lot we are told to Never take anything for granted and to appreciate what you have in this world.
