Miranda: a Pinnacle of Femininity and Object of Patriarchal Power (A Study of Shakespeare‘S ―The Tempest‖) Mrs
Special Issue Published in International Journal of Trend in Research and Development (IJTRD), ISSN: 2394-9333, www.ijtrd.com Miranda: A Pinnacle of Femininity and Object of Patriarchal Power (A Study of Shakespeare‘s ―The Tempest‖) Mrs. Divya K.B, Associate Professor, Dept of English, Jindal First Grade College For WomenJindalnagar, Bangalore, India Abstract: Shakespeare was not of an age but for all times because his characters are true to the eternal aspects of human life and not limited to contemporary society. Shakespeare was also the soul of his age. By its very nature drama is a mirror of its times. He wrote for Elizabethan audience and he conditioned his art to suit the tastes of the people and the limitations of the age. Shakespeare‘s greatness, one critic said lay in his comprehensive soul. That is the most poetic summation of a dramatic genius that has never been equaled. No dramatist can create live characters save by bequeathing the best of himself into his work of art, scattering among them a largess of his own qualities, his own wit, his comprehensive cogent philosophy, his own rhythm of action and the simplicity or complexity of his own nature. Shakespeare excelled in all of them all the time, or at least majority of times, as he teased and tormented his readers with his exquisite wit on one scale and sublimated them with his deep insight into human psyche on another. Shakespeare wrote in the age outstanding in literary history and its vitality of language. During the time of Shakespeare, there was a social construct of daughter Miranda to her rightful place using illusion and skilful gender and sexuality norms just as there are today. -

Such texts serve as pre-texts to others; they underwrite them. Yet, in its nearly four centuries of existence, The Tempest has washed ashore more alluvial debris than any other text: parodies, rewritings and adaptations of all kinds. Incessantly, we keep revisiting the stage of Shakespeare's island and we continue to dredge up new meanings from its sea-bed.

The Tempest Summary: a Magical Storm
The Tempest Summary: A Magical Storm The Tempest begins on a boat, tossed about in a storm. Aboard is Alonso the King of Naples, Ferdinand (his son), Sebastian (his brother), Antonio the usurping Duke of Milan, Gonzalo, Adrian, Francisco, Trinculo and Stefano. Miranda, who has been watching the ship at sea, is distraught at the thought of lost lives. The storm was created by her father, the magical Prospero, who reassures Miranda that all will be well. Prospero explains how they came to live on this island: they were once part of Milan’s nobility – he was a Duke and Miranda the baby princess. However, Prospero’s brother (Antonio) exiled them – they were placed on a boat and banished, never to be seen again. Prospero summons Ariel, his servant spirit. Ariel explains that he has carried out Prospero’s orders: he destroyed the ship and dispersed its passengers across the island. Prospero instructs Ariel to be invisible and spy on them. Ariel asks when he will be freed and Prospero chastises him for being ungrateful, promising to free him soon, when his work is done. Caliban: Man or Monster? Prospero decides to visit his other servant, Caliban, but Miranda is reluctant, describing him as a monster. Prospero agrees that Caliban can be rude and unpleasant, but is invaluable for the menial tasks he performs for them. When Prospero and Miranda meet Caliban, we learn that he is native to the island, but Prospero turned him into a slave raising issues about morality and fairness in the play. Love at First Sight Ferdinand stumbles across Miranda and they fall in love and decide to marry. -
Normalizing Human-Animal Power Relations Through Media: Zoo Discourses in Turkey
Makale gönderilme tarihi: 21.06.2019 Makale kabul tarihi: 9.10.2019 Normalizing Human-Animal Power Relations Through Media: Zoo Discourses in Turkey Sezen Ergin Zengin Dr. Araştırma Görevlisi [email protected] Hacettepe Üniversitesi Edebiyat Fakültesi Orcid: 0000-0001-5927-5357 Abstract This study examines zoo discourses on media as a conve- nient site for probing into human-animal power relations. A form of critical discourse analysis is carried out in national daily news discourse focusing on how zoo discourses portray animals through lexical choices, grammatical structures, and discursive strategies of capitalism, hospitality, and conservation. These strategies over- all operate to conceal the domination, oppression, and suffering of captive wild animals behind the benevolent image of the zoo insti- tution promoting conservation, education, and recreation. Through language, animals are constructed, on a superficial level, as sub- jects who enjoy their lives on natural habitats with their families. Yet further analysis reveals a power abuse in which animals are objectified and commodified for an exclusively human agenda. The study concludes that through the naturalizing effect of discourses human dominance over wild animals are never questioned and the zoos grant animals an instrumental value rather than inherent value.

In particular, it investigates the ways in which Dante responds to public and private attempts at forging both individual and collective identity in Florence. Selecting key chronicles, inscriptions and visual sources alluded to in the Commedia, the implications of Dante’s representation in terms of his ideological response are then extensively discussed. After introducing the central passages from the Commedia relevant to my project and a review of selected secondary literature on Dante and history, the dissertation introduces the Medieval Latin Chronica de origine civitatis florentiae as Dante’s most important source regarding his city’s foundation. In so doing, the textual readings are informed by the formation and control of memory, history and identity in historical context. -

Identities in the Tempest, Tempests in Identities
Vol.7(5), pp. 62-68, May 2016 DOI: 10.5897/IJEL2016.0915 Article Number: 280722E58642 ISSN 2141-2626 International Journal of English and Literature Copyright © 2016 Author(s) retain the copyright of this article http://www.academicjournals.org/IJEL Full Length Research Paper Identities in The Tempest, Tempests in Identities Begüm Tuğlu Department of English Language and Literature, Ege University, Turkey. Received 6 March, 2015; Accepted 25 April 2016 This study aims to analyze the identity formation of the characters in Shakespeare’s play The Tempest in terms of psychoanalytic theories of identity. It also aims to portray the patriarchal dominance over the marginalized characters and the shifting process of identification through the interpellation of the society. Since this process carries the potential to reveal the universal effects of the elements that nurture the identities of the individuals on a microcosmic scale, the play proves to be a perfect stage to explore the interactions between certain embodiments of identities. This research aims to explore the identity formation of the characters in The Tempest through psychoanalysis to reveal how the Western patriarchal ideology, mainly reflected through Prospero, subjugates and controls other formations of identity that fall beneath the social hierarchy as in the examples of Miranda, Ariel and Caliban. While Prospero stands as the main authority who rules the island, all other forms of identity seem to remain as mere subjects of his control. Though the play is presented as a romantic comedy, the findings in this study suggest that patriarchal ideology is stealthily reinforced through the notions of gender and identity. -
