Like Water for Chocolate / Movie and Book Comparison
[ send me this paper ]
In 7 pages, the author compares the movie and book versions of Like Water for Chocolate or Como agua para chocolate by Laura Esquivel. It is a story that is too hot to handle: forbidden love, matriarchal dominance, the supernatural, and the special Mexican recipes that become more than enticing dishes. The protagonist is Tita, the youngest daughter in a family of three daughters who, because of a tradition imposed by her mother, is not allowed to marry the man she loves. When comparing the movie version and the novel, one will note that the movie version evokes images of mistreatment, disdain, and provocation, which are not in the book. A free Roman Numeral Sentence Outline is included. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Moral Justification in the Issue of Female Genital “Mutilation”
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the fact that human rights organizations ranging from Amnesty International to the United Nations’ High Council on Refugees estimate that there are between eight and ten million women and girls in the Middle East and in Africa who are at risk of undergoing one form or another of genital “mutilation.” However, countless millions of those women and girls do not perceive the process as mutilation but a coming of age ritual, a rite of passage. As such, Westerners do not have the right to object to or campaign against the practice. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
