I have this quote very interesting. It really gives life to the tree. ]]> 2019-01-14 18:11:49 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/320440986 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/321387266 Line 125-128, "Then the prudent woman immediately  placed the warrior's head still bloody into the sack.." 
Judith is not scared to get her hands dirty. She picks a bloody head without hesitation. While men are usually the ones who get their hands dirty. She breaks that gender stereotype. ]]> 2019-01-16 18:39:22 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/321387266 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/321391562 Judith reminds me of reminds of my fictional character Katsa. Katsa is the main character in my favorite fictional book, Graceling. Katsa uses her feminine attributes to make people underestimate her. As instructed by the king her job was to kill or threaten the citizen who disobeyed the king . Eventually she breaks free of the king. She then travels to all of the kingdoms and trains young girls and women how to fight and stand up for themselves. Judith and Katsa are similar due to their bravery, and their ability inspire people to fight for themselves.]]> 2019-01-16 18:46:26 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/321391562 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/323589560 Lines 65-69, "A wise man must be patient, not too hot of heart not hasty of speech, not reluctant of fight not too reckless, not too timid nor too glad, not too greedy, and never get to commit until he can be sure."
These lines are interesting to me because they cant be placed in the Pagan heroic or the Christian values. The author is telling us what a warrior should be, but also these are Christian values. This is like an equilibrium of both values ]]> 2019-01-23 17:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/323589560 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/323611459 Lanval reminds me of Judith, the fairy Queen uses her beauty to control the men. They both aren't submissive to men. Lines 607 -610, "The king, who was well bred, rose and went to meet her; all the others honored her and offered to serve her." A room full of men offered to serve a woman because of her beauty. ]]> 2019-01-23 18:32:34 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/323611459 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/325073654 Line 727,"clouds shed their cargo of crystallized rain." This line was a real interesting way to say it was snow or sleet. It really puts an image of how the snow was. It makes the snow seem "meaner" or "angry."]]> 2019-01-28 18:16:10 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/325073654 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/325078234 In lines 354-355,"I am wakerst of you warriors and feeblest of wit; loss of my life would be least lamented." Sir Gawain volunteers himself to make the deal with the Green Knight. He knows that his life won't matter as much as Arthurs. ]]> 2019-01-28 18:23:54 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/325078234 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/327618400 Lanval was a new role of masculinity. He was not a dominant male. He believed in love. He was so in love with the fairy lady. When he betrayed her, he felt horrible. He would rather die than live without out her forgiveness. Lines 597-599, “By my faith, he said,” that is my love. Now I don’t care if I am killed if she only forgives me.” prove this point. ]]> 2019-02-05 03:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/327618400 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/328876923 Lines 135-144, "I look forward constantly toward that time the Lord's rood which I beheld before here on this earth shall fetch me away from this fleeting life and bring me then where bliss is eternal to joy in Paradise where joy lasts forever and seat me there where evermore I shall dwell in glory, together with the saints share in their delights." The narrator is so alone in the world that he can't wait to die so he can go to heaven. ]]> 2019-02-07 17:50:50 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/328876923 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/331856714 This Sonnet is all about how the speaker is so in love with his mistress that he doesn't care about her outward appearance. As in lines 13 -14,"and yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare as any she belied with false compare." This is even cohesive with the song Honey I'm Good by Andy Grammer. In the song he talks sings about how other women are tempting him, but he is so in love with his women that he won't even chase after them.  Just like the Sonnet's speaker acknowledges that his mistress isn't a goddess but he is still in love with her. ]]> 2019-02-15 18:24:54 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/331856714 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/331861280 In line 4-5, "...and bend Your force to break, blow, burn and make me now" When I read this sonnet these lines really stood out to me. In the sonnet the speaker talks about being "beaten down" by God. In these lines the "b" sound sounds like a beat. It emphasizes the actual feeling he is feeling.  ]]> 2019-02-15 18:34:31 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/331861280 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346402846 The very first line, " A woman's face with Nature's own hand painted." This line leads to believe that this person whom the writer is describing has a naturally beautiful face. This Sonnet might be about a man with feminine structure, that speaker is in love with. ]]> 2019-03-29 02:55:52 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346402846 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346412810 So this play is completely diverse gender wise. In line 266 in Act 5 Sebastian is talking to Olivia, "You are betrothed to a maid and man," 
Sebastians says this because Olivia fell in love with Viola who was dressed as a man, but is the twin sister to Sebastian.]]> 2019-03-29 04:05:32 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346412810 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346422025 Both of these pieces are about diverse attractive. Olivia fells in love with woman who looks like a man. The speaker in Sonnet 20 is in love with a man who looks like a woman. ]]> 2019-03-29 05:35:26 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346422025 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346422978 Jeffree Star and Nate are the modern interpretation of the Twelfth Night.

The first sentence reminds me of Judith, "My loving people, I have been persuaded by some that are careful of my safety, to take hedd how I committed myself to armed multitudes, for fear of treachery." both women gave an inspiring speech to their people to give them hope during a war. ]]> 2019-03-29 05:57:10 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346423496 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346424191 This piece of poetry, is about hunting for something even though you will never be able to catch. Line 9 "Who list her hunt, I put him out of mind," this is where the speaker is telling himself why bother going after this woman. She is taken and he'll never be able to get her.]]> 2019-03-29 06:05:41 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346424191 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346424550 These pieces are about thing the speakers can not have. The speaker in Sonnet 130 wants a goddess but they don't exist so he settles for a plain looking woman he is happy with. In Whoso list to hunt the speaker wants a woman he can never have. ]]> 2019-03-29 06:10:44 UTC https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346424550 simpsonal17 https://padlet.com/simpsonal17/qy9z0z836io4/wish/346559075 Marriage isn't meant to be perfect. The speaker is dead set on how tedious it is to have a husband. She prefers to stay a virgin since it would be easier. Lines 7- 9 explain the joy of not getting married, "No blustering husbands to create your fears;/No pangs of childbirth to extort you tears;/ No children's cries for to offend your ears;" When a woman chooses to stay single, she doesn't have to take care of a husband experience childbirth, or take care of children.

She did not marry and she was her father's bastard daughter. Many, Many people did not approve of her. Many people couldn't comprehend a woman leading a country. Although all this hate, she still loved her country deeply and wanted nothing more than to take care of her people.
