Ry� The Harper Anthology of Academic Writing Issue IX 1997 William Rainey Harper College T h e Harper Anthology Human language has the potential to be insensitive, ugly, even brutish. And yet we want to think, too, Foreword that Aristotle was right, that words are indeed what set human beings apart from the balance of the ani­ mal kingdom. We want to trust that just around the corner from the vulgar phrase lurks a sentence that resonates with ravishing poetry. We hope, as we pass ungraspable utterances, that we will come upon the sounds of words that are clear, frank, and true. The HarperAnt hology Selection Committee is determined and optimistic about unearthing lan­ guage that possesses clarity, frankness, and truth; we believe that human beings will, in obedience to cer­ tain internal impulses, fashion words uniquely and express themselves transparently, sometimes beauti­ fully. Most of all, we believe that good writing­ poetic, lyrical, illustrative, substantive, altogether soulful writing-is perennial, like baseball.

  • The Portrayal of Women in American Superhero Comics By: Esmé Smith Junior Research Project Seminar
    Hidden Heroines: The Portrayal of Women in American Superhero Comics By: Esmé Smith Junior Research Project Seminar Introduction The first comic books came out in the 1930s. Superhero comics quickly became one of the most popular genres. Today, they remain incredibly popular and influential. I have been interested in superhero comics for several years now, but one thing I often noticed was that women generally had much smaller roles than men and were also usually not as powerful. Female characters got significantly less time in the story devoted to them than men, and most superhero teams only had one woman, if they had any at all. Because there were so few female characters it was harder for me to find a way to relate to these stories and characters. If I wanted to read a comic that centered around a female hero I had to spend a lot more time looking for it than if I wanted to read about a male hero. Another thing that I noticed was that when people talk about the history of superhero comics, and the most important and influential superheroes, they almost only talk about male heroes. Wonder Woman was the only exception to this. This made me curious about other influential women in comics and their stories. Whenever I read about the history of comics I got plenty of information on how the portrayal of superheroes changed over time, but it always focused on male heroes, so I was interested in learning how women were portrayed in comics and how that has changed.
