[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. People from all walks of life must endure social intolerance at one time or another; however, certain groups face prejudicial persecution on a regular basis. What is the answer for gays, lesbians, feminists and proponents of abortion that would bring a sense of peace and security in this lifetime? Is it too much to hope for that social bias begin to wane in exchange for a more understanding and open-minded world? Indeed, what lies at the foundation of all intolerance – be that toward homosexuals, feminists or those who support abortion – is a combination of fear and ignorance, an alliance that not only precludes the chance for security and peace but one that also encourages just the opposite.

A Psychoanalytic Reading of Christina Rossetti’s “The Lost Titian”
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the psychoanalytical aspects of the short story by Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) “The Lost Titian” that was published in 1856. It is worth noting that her works’ apparent simplicity often masks a darker and far more intellectual stream of consciousness. From a psychoanalytical perspective it is quite clear that there is much more to the writer and her work which may, in itself, serve as a metaphor for a creative and unique woman of the Victorian age. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
