Hypatia Role

Women’s rights have improved drastically since that time but there still is a stigma that men are better than women. This type of view is wrong and shouldn’t even be thought about in the world we live into today. Woman server a great purpose in the world we live in and should be considered equal in all aspects of life. If one were to ponder this idea seriously we can see without out women no children are born. The sad truth is that women still have to fight for their rights in every aspect of their daily lives. The typical women in society makes only .70 cents for every dollar that a man would make doing the same job. One would think that one hundred and fifty years later women would be considered equal counterparts to men. “There has been progress toward greater workplace equality, but we still have a long ways to

In today 's world, women have an important role. They keep the sanity of others in tact, they maintain the peace, and provide a lot to communities all over the world. Women are just as capable as men when it comes to intellectual thinking, professions, and ideas. But one thing that cannot be changed is that men are just naturally physically stronger than women. So in the 1600’s and about up to the 1950’s, because women were not as physically strong, they were seen as weak in other aspects too. They were treated like decorations, just to be seen and not heard, just hang on a wall. But evidentially this is not true. Women are very powerful in many ways and Anne Hutchinson portrays that throughout her court case. American Jezebel by Eve

Hytema is one of the world’s largest defense contractors. Therefore, the vast majority of their technical information is extremely sensitive, and if compromised, the consequences could be exceptionally devastating. Hytema lead the team that developed the F-45 Raider fighter jet, the detailed technical information for this one project alone is especially sensitive. If technical details for the F-45 Raider fighter jet were to end up in enemy hands, not only would they have the specifications to possibly replicate the fighter but also information which can be used to attack the jet, such as how to hack into its navigation or weapons systems.

""Voices" were the visitors and advisers of Joan of Arc. Do not "voices" come to us daily from the haunts of poverty, sorrow, degradation, and despair, already too long unheeded? ... The same religious enthusiasm that nerved Joan of Arc to her work nerves us to ours. In ever generation God calls some men and women for the utterance of truth, a heroic action, and our work today is the fulfilling of what has long since been foretold by the Prophet- Joel 2:28: "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy."" She alludes to the religious tale of Joan of Arc and quotes a passage from the bible. These allusions further her point in proving that women can do great things too, and that God himself does not discriminate based on gender. Both men and women can prophesize, which is a great and uncomparable task in a religious standpoint. By doing this, she is appealing to any religious members of the audience. They may start to wonder; 'God doesn't discriminate, why should

In an article about ancient Alexandria’s great female scholar, Hypatia, Sarah Zielinski explains the story of an avowed paganist in a time of religious strife. While viewing the article as a whole, the graphic description of Hypatia’s death grasps the audience’s attention, the fact remains that Hypatia was murdered, which was evidenced by Zielinski’s diction suggesting Peter the Lector’s mob dehumanized her and Lector’s brutal nature.

I think it is important to take time and actually think about all of the advancements women have made. If you think about it we would not have some of the things we have today due to the women in past standing up for they believe in. There is a quote that I cannot remember off the top of my head, but I know that it is along the lines of saying a woman in general is powerful, but once she realizes how truly powerful she is, you better watch out. “Like Mary Richards, American women in the 1970s were figuring out how to use their new powers to craft a good life” (Collins 241). This quote is amazing because there are so many women that do not see their potential. Everything is just a matter of you can do anything you put your mind to and it was not until the 1970’s that women were starting to come around to see what they were truly capable of.

Women are more successful than ever before. For instance there is women such as Melinda Gates, Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey that are very successful. Melinda Gates is a co founder of the Bill & Melinda Gates foundation and is an activist in philanthropy and global development and generates billions for this cause. Michelle Obama got her law degree in harvard, she advocate for the arts, education, and, above all, nutrition. Oprah Winfrey is a director, producer, entrepreneur , personality and philanthropist making a worth of $2.9 billion. Who would have thought back in the day that as a woman we have the potential to have a bright future in a world where Men have been the leaders for the past centuries.This woman apart from that their hard work have been able to thrive thanks to woman civil

Throughout history, women have fought valiantly to be treated as equals and have the same rights as men, who are seen as

Although the graphic description of Hypatia's death catches the attention of the audience, the fact remains that she was murdered, as evidence by Zielinski’s diction suggesting Peter the Lector’s religious intolerance and brutal nature.

Ancient Greece was an extremely patriarchal culture, and could even be called misogynistic. However, in the midst of a society in which women were second-class citizens, the Pythia at the Temple of Apollo served as a beacon of light for women. The Pythia refers to a religious and coveted position that was filled by a succession of women from Delphi for over 400 years. These women acted as the mouthpiece for the god, Apollo. The Pythia was arguably the most powerful and influential position in Ancient Greece. People from throughout Greece and beyond would pilgrimage to the Temple of Apollo in Delphi to consult the Pythia. During the reign of the Pythia, these women were able to give responses that influenced politics, social change, blood-guilt,

This man had been excommunicated, however, Hildegard stuck to her decision and did not remove the man because he had repented and had been reconciled to the church. She composed a musical piece and sent it to the ecclesiastical authorities on her decision. “She pointed out that God in his wisdom and goodness had made music an essential aspect of the human life.” In Hildegard’s teaching of the church she quotes, “the best treasure you have is a living intellect. In her teaching of theology the head of a church is not the bishop or pope, but “Christ and the Word are head of the church and its cornerstone, while the clergy is there to serve.” During a time when women in the church were not accepted by others Hildegard wrote to many empresses, including Bertha, the Queen of Greece, and the Empress of Byzantium. Within these letters Hildegard encouraged them to stay true to themselves and look to the ones who had moved them and to keep all of God’s commandments. Within Hildegard’s theology teachings she puts an emphasis on justice. “The footsteps of the Son of God, tramples upon all injustice.” Hildegard brought about the idea of God as a mother, and God as a

In our society we are unfairly judgemental and set ridiculous standards for both men and women. Now don’t get me wrong we have indeed grown in our expedition to expand the horizons of equality for men and

Today we live in a world that continually stresses to us that, "All men are created equal." While this sounds great at face value, further inspection tells us that this is far from realistic and sadly may never be. One can examine any aspect of society whether it be race, religion, language, level of education, sexual orientation or economic status and notice that there are numerous characteristics and factors of identity that enable others to treat others differently. This truth may not be pleasant or make one feel all warm and fuzzy inside, however it is our society’s reality, however dismal it may be. Even if the statement above as to the equality of all men were true, how about women? Clearly women have made tremendous strides towards

Women are almost given the same chance as men to show off what they can do and exercise their rights since they were born. But I regret this gender inequality that happened before. I suddenly think that, what if women have already been given equal chances as men before? I think the world would go off a better course. Without a doubt, I admit that women are smarter than men. So think of all the possibilities that might happen. With the given chances today, I still don’t know why some women still ask for gender equality.

Many believes that “in every success of man there is a woman behind.” In this clause, participation of women is acknowledged. More than this, women’s contribution to an accomplishment is vital. We can then
