Recommended: How did humanism effect art

For the Consideration to the Humanist Club Board of Directors I believe that my background in art and literature makes me a perfect candidate for the election to the Humanist Club Board of Directors. With my extensive knowledge in writing about humanism and feminism, I would be a great addition to the Club. With the experience of writing over 40 poems including Epistre au dieu d'amour (1399), where I explored the status of women within society and commented their depiction in literature and Le livre du trésor de la cité des dames (1405) where I talked about the importance of equality. Not only do I know extensive amounts about literature, but I have enough life experience to help give fair advice to the Club. Being a widowed mother to three

  • Women During The Renaissance Era

    521 Words  | 2 Pages

    Women throughout history have fought very hard to earn a respectable place in society, despite a patriarchal society and male dominance that remains. The roles of women have developed widely over time. Women frequently fall inferior to men politically, socially, and intellectually. This intellectual gap restricted many women to the role of a domestic caretaker. For others, an education was the foundation to discover new ideas and new ways of thinking. While many Renaissance women had access to an education, a small group of writers captured the attention of others. As Laura Cereta, a humanistic writer noted, “knowledge is not given as a gift, but is gained with diligence.” Humanistic writers fostered ideas of intellectual growth, independence,

  • Susan Glaspell's A Jury of Her Peers

    959 Words  | 2 Pages

    Despite my severe reservations concerning the backbone of “A Jury of Her Peers,” I thoroughly enjoyed reading the short story. Besides being extremely well written, it provides insight into the realm of the feminist mind. Because of its thought provoking ideas and assumptions, I feel privileged to have read it. If the intellect is to continue to expand and retain its open-mindedness, one must be ever vigil in his search for a better way of conducting life and continue to stimulate it with such catalysts as “A Jury of Her Peers.”

He responded by stating that the youth center has indeed received donations in the past from various individuals, none of which though are large enough to have a lasting impact on the organization. Although “they did help ease some of the problems at the time being.”

  • Book Club Meeting Reflection

    628 Words  | 2 Pages

    The first member, Kristen, read the book called “A Perfect Night to go to China” by David Gilmour. Simply put, the book is about a father who is unable to find his son and consequently his life starts to fall apart. As the speaker was giving her brief summary, I was really intrigued when she mentioned the diverse characters. The main character, Roman – the father of the lost child, is more kept to himself and introverted. His wife on the other hand is essentially the exact opposite. She is more open with her emotions and not afraid of expressing it towards Roman. Stories with multi-dimensional characters are always exciting to read, seeing as how there are sometimes unique perspectives. Surprisingly, Kristen – who actually read the book in its entirety, did not like it very much. She was expecting a better ending and was disappointed by the unnecessary build up of suspense. With that being said, I am not going to discredit this book until I read it myself.

  • Rhetorical Analysis on Virginia Woolf´s Speech Professions for Women

    874 Words  | 2 Pages

    ...n conclusion, Woolf shows that although women of her time did not dare to question the authority of society, she didn’t stick to the status quo like the rest of them. She encouraged many women to no longer allow a man’s word overpower theirs. Because of her many women excelled beyond the norm and were freed from the doors that locked them away from their natural given rights. When Woolf delivered her speech to the National Society for Women’s Service, universal suffrage was a newly won political right. Modern readers will appreciate the historical context and relevance of “Professions for Women,” while being reminded that women still have a long way to go before achieving absolute equality. The speech serves as a reminder to all women that they are still the inferior gender in many cases and it will remain that way if women don’t take action.

  • Collaborative Leadership Reflection

    I am feeling that my leadership style is collaborative. It means that I am willing to hear and accommodate the inputs and feedback from my team member. My decision-making process is started with the brainstorming, discussion and idea generation from all team members, to make sure that everyone in the team is aware and contributes to the decision process. I also always encourage the team member to speak up and provide any ideas or feedback during the decision-making process. In the end, I will feel that my final decision would be a team decision, so everyone in the team will be honored. I believe that the involvement is the key success factor of the teamwork. In the simulation of Matterhorn Health, I collaborated with all the people in the organization and considered their ideas or point of view in making my decisions.

    My thoughts on the use of a Salvation Army Advisory Board. Prior to the start of the course on “Advisory Board Development,” I took for granted the importance of an advisory board’s assistance to the corps, in completing the mission of The Salvation Army. I had prior exposure to a couple of advisory boards, however, my exposure was limited to a few meetings I was able to attend. The discussions usually centered on normal Salvation Army agendas, related to the corps. Therefore, I was unable to gather enough information to conclude and recognize the importance of an advisory board.

    The Leadership role has it’s exceptional demand on it’s own when it comes to big metropolis organization. The organization I work at it has chain facilities where leaders are not judged by the followers. The followership quotient definitely depends on the behavior of the leader, and most followers follow the footsteps of the leader. Perhaps the organization I work for has it’s own defaults when it comes to leadership. I often look at my manager as the leader of the team, and other times, I look at our scheduling leader and feel she the leader of the team.

  • Reflection Paper: Reflection On Business And Society

    736 Words  | 2 Pages

    This summer’s course in ‘Business and Society’ was a great opportunity for me to learn more about myself, my perspective of business, the role of government in society, policy makers and most importantly the views of the stakeholders. For the spring semester gone and this summer session almost all classes were tied into my major, giving me a better understanding on what I want out of my degree. My major here at Marymount Manhattan College is Finance and this class has surely helped me in figuring out, the workings of ‘big business’ and its impact on stakeholders. This course has helped me understand why many laws, at one point to me sounded absurd, but are in place to protect both industry and stakeholder. I never thought communication was such a priority in the business world until taking this class. From newly learnt material I see communication as a
