Diana In Wonder Woman

Beowulf shares characteristics with female superhero Wonder Woman. Wonder Woman sprung to the top of box office charts last summer, the story focuses on a female warrior named Diana who endeavors to defeat the malevolent forces of the Nazi regime. The morally righteous Diana travels from her peaceful home to war torn Germany, where she contends with Ares and other super villains to restore peace for the innocent citizens of the country. Beowulf also travels to aid the villagers who desperately need his help. “He who had come to them from across the sea, bold and strong-minded, had driven affliction off” (344-345). Much like the previously mentioned James Bond, Wonder Woman does not need swords or shields in battle, she is described as a weapon herself, “the God Killer”. While Beowulf’s followers wield their sword against Grendel to no avail, Beowulf uses his sheer strength to tear off “the bleeding sinews deep in his shoulder” and snap Grendel’s bone, leaving him to die of blood

They are geniuses; they come up with original ideas to take care of themselves and others. They are fearless, which it comes to show that they don’t rely on anyone but themselves. Athena and Diana were very bright women because both were against injustice and would fight towards one’s right. Both were intelligent, but in their own way, Diana Prince showed her true emotions, “watching Wonder Woman grow up surrounded by the love of other

Despite their differences, both superheros are seen as iconic women in the comic industry. Their intelligence as individuals are seen as an inspiration to different types of women around the world. Which creates a powerful movement of women across the nation. If not just for their intelligence, both Wonder Woman and the Black Widow are in the well known groups Justice League and the Avengers. In the original series for both women the Black Widow and Wonder Woman are the first females to part take in those groups. With the empowerment that is sparked on women all across the nation, the popular comic writers began to weave in more female superheroes into their works, resulting in more female characters in the newer superhero groups.

Princess Diana is considered to be the most favored member of the Royal Family in the history of the British Monarchy (biography.com editors 1). She is the former wife of Prince Charles, and the mother of Princes William and Harry. Her charitable work with impoverished children has formed her reputation as a role model for the people of Britain and much of the world. Much of Diana’s life has been devoted to traveling the world to help others. Her work in Africa with the children injured by landmines brought her into the global spotlight (Wexford 3). Princess Diana was more than just a public figure and royal, she was a loving person who brought light to social issues and cared for those who are destitute.

The Wonder Woman character went through different changes from different authors who kept creating her journey. In the beginning Wonder Woman was written by William Marston but after his death in 1947, the Wonder Woman went through a change due to a different writer taking over. As Steinem states, “She became sexier-looking and more submissive, violent episodes increased, more of her adversaries were female, and Wonder Woman herself required more help from men in order to triumph.” (271) This change made Wonder Woman a different character than what readers fell in love with in the beginning. As

Princess Diana was an inspiration for many people around the world and used her royalty to highlight major social issues. Diana’s dedication to humanitarian work helped to promote awareness and raise money for a wide range of charitable causes, including her campaign against landmines and her kind hearted approach to the AIDS predicament. Diana crossed boundaries to offer support to casualties and worked hard to change the opinions of the general public, which didn't particularly follow royal protocol because she lead from the heart, not the head.

On Friday, November 18th, I attended the play Alicia in Wonder Tierra which took place at California State University of San Bernardino. The play was put together and made possible by many students, professors and many others who dedicated their time and donations. I was fortunate enough to have been able to work with Sara on the props and the paint portion of the stage and set up. It was a great experience working on the props and seeing it all come together and being able to see it all finally being used to create the vision of a producer and director.

But all of these have the same basic origin. She was born and lived the majority of her life on the isolated paradise island of Themyscira, an island inhabited entirely of Amazonian women.

In the long legacy of DC comics there are two female archetypes who couldn 't be more different: one is a paragon of virtue and one is a psychopath. One has an abusive relationship with an insane criminal that defines her identity; the other encourages women and girls to fight for their independence. One has decades of historical canon and an inception full of purpose; the other was meant to be a one-off and a short amusement in a kids ' cartoon, but exploded into a phenomenon. Despite their many differences, they are both beloved the world over. They hold constant interest for fans over the years and, for many women, both mark milestones of feminism. To understand this phenomenon more we will take a closer look at the characters of

“Wonder Woman is a walking- and sometimes flying- paradox of attributions and images. She is, at once, a female sex symbol and feminist icon: physically vulnerable, morally virtuous, financially independent, self-determining, and, in tune with her womanly ways, self-sacrificing” (Wright 6). Wonder Woman was created by William Marston in order to show and achieve women empowerment. At the time that Wonder Woman was assembled, there were no women superheroes. The only superheroes that were created at the time were powerful, strong, fully-clothed, white, males. Even though Wonder Woman is just as powerful and important as other male superheroes, she is often easily centered out from other superheroes because of her physique, lack of clothes,
