Janie is a woman who has overcome the rules and restrictions she was given. Janie was nothing but "a rut in the road. Plenty of life beneath the surface but it was kept beaten down by the wheels" (Hurston 72). Eventually, Janie made it her purpose to rebel against this mold.
One strong characteristic that Janie did not seem to show as much, is pride. Janie showed pride in some chapters, which I enjoyed because it was her turn to put herself first. The realization of questions that was once thought about, could be answered in the years she continued to find herself. Janie also had sympathy. Sympathy became a detail in chapter three, where the reader stated “She knew now that marriage did not make love. Janie’s first dream was dead, so she became a woman”(Hurston 25). That quote showed so much because she never married Tea Cake, but she married the man that she no longer loved. Janie had sympathy and having that trait helped her become a
By doing this, she has shown the community that a person can not always be happy with material things when she or he is not in love. Janie says, "Ah want things sweet wid mah marriage lak when you sit under a pear tree and think." She shows her grandma that she is not happy with her Janie's next husband, Joe Starks was very nice to her and gave her everything she wanted. When it came to Janie wanting to talk or speak her mind, he would not let her, and that made her feel like she was less of a person than he.
Janie's hair is a reminder throughout the entire novel that she is unconventional and a strong woman which causes her to be characterized as independent. It is obvious from the start that Janie is not a typically women for this time period and she does not follow society’s rules, which is evident when the town people continuously comment on her appearance: "What dat ole forty year ole 'oman doin' wid her hair swingin' down her back lak some young gal?” Her hair is mentioned often by the townspeople, and the tone the people use to describe her hair is typically with disdain as evident by calling Janie a
Januarie falsifies and destroys import as he loses himself in his "fantasye", reducing reality to objects that he believes he can mold to his own lustful imagination. Thus, he simplifies and subsumes all else under currency or property. Indeed, he exhibits the very traits of his narrator, a merchant-someone who purchases merchandise only to turn around and sell it at a profit. Januarie, therefore, concerns himself with the worth of an object rather than the object itself and, as he tries to find a bride, quite literally tries to shop for the girl who will become his wife:
Janie is a victim of circumstance, but when given the opportunity she follows the pathways that she thinks would lead her to her self-fulfillment. She endures whatever she is put through when she sees no other option. She is strong, outspoken and independent; a woman born in a time period where all of these qualities, when present in a woman, were taboo. However, these qualities were still displayed despite the criticism of society. In this sense, Janie is stronger than many modern women because she was courageous enough to stand up for herself and her beliefs despite all obstacles and opinions.
In Hurston's story, Janie symbolically represents the position of a woman in the South who is seen to be confused due to her nature as a woman. She is also married to three husbands at different stages, this represents her development from a dependent person who could not make her own choices and in her last marriage to the Tea Cake she makes her choice independently hence and indication that she has finally developed and gained independence. Also, when her last husband dies she shave her hair and goes backs home (Hurston, 2000), by shaving her hair she symbolized her rebirth from dependent to an independent woman and also it was a symbol of change and a new
In the Article “Sewing Machines Liberation or Drudgery for Women” Joan Perkin wrote about the positive and negative effects that came from the invention of the sewing machine. The sewing machine was invented by Elias Howe and Isaac Merritt Singer in the 1800’s. by 1877 almost half a million sewing machines were being used in the United States, making it the first home appliance in American homes. The author writes that this invention will transform the way clothing would be made from then on. Before the sewing machine women would make their clothes by hand at home, it would take up to twenty hours to produce one shirt. With this new invention the time was cut down to about an hour for the same amount of work.
Janie represents all of the independent women of her time because she never gave up her happiness. The one moment that brought the whole story together and the one moment that really showed Janie as one strong woman, was the moment she let down her hair. After many years and multiple men burdening her of societal expectations she finally became a woman that she wanted to be. The moment quoted when she became herself was, “She went over to the dresser and looked hard at her skin and features. The young girl was gone, but a handsome woman had taken her place. She tore off the kerchief from her head and let down her plentiful hair. The weight, the length, the glory was there”(Hurston 86), was the climax of the story, and the beginning to Janie’s
She would eventually find that Joe needed to have control. The head rag was one of Joe’s ways of confining Janie, and a way he could keep her to himself and under his control. Hurston wrote, “This business of the head-rag irked [Janie] endlessly. But Jody was set on it. Her hair was not gong to show in the store… She was there in the store for him to look at, not those others” (6.31). Joe’s jealousy traps Janie, keeping her from being free to express her true self. Taking away her greatest display of beauty prevents her from having her own identity as a beautiful woman. Janie’s life became so confined, “she sat and watched the shadow of herself going about tending the store and prostrating itself before Jody, while all the time she herself sat under a shady tree with the wind blowing through her hair and her clothes” (7.5). Janie was so restrained by Joe’s jealousy she could only find freedom in her thoughts. She imagined a shadow of herself confined in the store while her true self was free to wonder under a tree, like she wondered under the pear tree, which defined her idea of love as teenager. After Joe died Janie “burnt up every one of her head rags and went about the house next morning with her hair in one thick braid swinging well below her waist” (9.3). This was an expression of Janie’s joyful liberation and defiance of Joe’s restrictive ways. After years of
The teeth from several circular saws placed closely together grabbed the cotton as it was fed into the machine. Cotton moved through a grating or screen that quickly and easily caught the cotton fibers and removed the seeds (Abrams). A brush moving in the opposite direction cleared lint from the teeth, preparing the machine for another batch of cotton to be processed. This simple device saved many hand-labor hours. A request for a new birdcage sparked Whitney's imagination: he would use strong but thin wire in his cotton gin and add a brush roller to remove lint from the wire
Throughout the Industrial Revolution in 1780 there were many positive and negative effects that resulted during this time including technologies were improving, machinery that was making travel, luxuries and comfort better, and poor working/ living conditions. The Industrial Revolution was when societies in Europe and America started invent machines, which made manufacturing of products quicker, easier, and cheaper. Before all these machines in factories were created, the economy was all based on farming and peoples abilities to make products to sell. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain in the 1780’s and to Western Europe and the United States throughout the 18th Century. It began in Great Britain because there was good weather
Poor organizational management, failure to innovate and adapt to the environment, and an outdated brand image have all contributed to Sears massive decline. By not setting a clear organizational strategy, executives of Sears strayed away from innovation, allowing for competitors to attract Sears loyal customers to their organization. In addition, the outdated brand image of Sears has failed to meet the ever changing customers of today’s society. Overall, there are many reasons that have led to the downfall of a once powerful retail giant.

During the Industrial Revolution, the textile industry received high demand for its cloth goods. However, the production of such goods was very slow. As demand rose, the need for a faster, cheaper, and more efficient way of producing enough cloth goods became more urgent. Thus, inventors began developing new ways to produce cloth goods. One of the best examples was English inventor James Hargreaves. Hargreaves invented the spinning jenny, a device in which spinners would use his right hand to quickly spin a wheel to rotate spindles and spin 8 threads around 8 spindles attached to a wooden frame. Since each spinning jenny could spin several threads simultaneously, the device dramatically increased the rate at which cloth was produced and the quantity of cloth that was made. This allowed for the textile industry to meet the large demand for cloth goods of the time and enhance their method of produ...
