Toussaint L’Ouverture was born in 1743 in Saint Domingue on a plantation in Cap-Haïtien. He was quite prodigious as a young child: rather than working as a field slave and toiling in the hot sun, he began his slave existence as a herder. Later on, he became a coach driver and waiter for his owner. Ultimately, his owner saw such promise in him that he appointed L’Ouverture as an overseer of fellow slaves who were working in the field. Throughout his tenure, being a more “upscale” slave, he was given access to the plantation library. It was in that library that L’Ouverture’s godfather taught him how to read and write, and the seeds of his future were sown.

Donaldson, A South African Indian Womanist Reading of the Character of Ruth, by Sarojini Nadar, and She Stood in Tears Amid the Alien Corn:Ruth, the Perpetual Foreigner and Model Minority, by Gale A. Yee, I have to consider my own social-location in relation to the book of Ruth. As a lower-middle- class, atheist, Hispanic, woman who lives on her own (but with a roommate), can relate to a lot to theses feminist and womanist ethic interpretations.

In Oedipus the King, for instance, the oracle’s message that Oedipus will kill his father and marry his own mother suggests that he was a puppet in the hands of the gods, who manipulated the events that led to his fall. However, the character’s fate is not entirely attributable to the work of the gods. In the play, Oedipus meets his fate due to his determination to unravel the mysteries surrounding the king’s death, despite warnings by the prophet Tiresias and his wife/mother, and his quest to prove the oracles wrong in their declaration that he is
