Ally McBeal: Cultural Values And Behavior
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The notoriety of Ally McBeal is not that surprising if one considers the standard elements of contemporary popular culture that it depicts. Indeed, the extent to which this particular program highlights such cultural values as capitalism and individualism, while at the same time devaluing certain ways of being, lends to the show's credibility as a reflection of society. Money and self-centeredness are two of the primary cultural values that stand out in virtually every episode; amidst the young law firm is a collection of people whose ideals are as shallow as a child's. That everything revolves around the amassing of great quantities of money reflects the manner by which society has rearranged priorities by placing superficiality at the top of the list. Add to that a significant sense of feminism gone awry and it all adds up to a television program that offends virtually every possible social group. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Analysis of Themes and a Passage from Toni Morrison’s “Sula” and Gloria Anzaldua’s Creative Identity and Hybridity as Described in “Borderlands”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing themes consisted and found within Morrison’s “Sula”, Anzaldua’s “Borderlands” and the poetry and writings of Namjoshi and Hanscombe and Willis. Themes of cultural dichotomy, opposing forces, self and identity are consistent throughout writings by women minorities. In Toni Morrison’s “Sula” and Gloria Anzaldua’s “Borderlands” both describe situations of women struggling in cultures in which continuously opposing forces and cultural identities lead them to dichotomies which in some cases end in a negative direction as in “Sula” but in other instances lead to creativity as described in Anzaldua’s “Borderlands” and the Aztec elements of tlilli, tlapilli which symbolize writing and wisdom and allow for the bridge to be attained through the gods and spirit world and that which lies beneath. The themes found in the writings of Morrison and Anzaldua are also used in the poetry of Suniti Namjoshi and Gillian Hanscombe’s found in their work “Flesh and Paper” and in Susan Willis’ essay in the text “Making a Difference”. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
