Breaking the Pressure of Silence in Ba’s So Long a Letter
[ send me this paper ]
Time, place, expectation, disappointment, surrender, rebellion, desired commitment and buried anger all surface in women of every culture, but when Mariama Ba applies them to her African marriage culture in So Long a Letter, she goes a phase deeper into female existence. It is that silent partner, always a step behind, always there, always observing, not quite doing and not quite asserting itself into the whole. From this part of herself, Ba breaks the final barrier to silence. Bibliography lists 1 source. jvBALong.rtf

Bridewealth and Dowry
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper assessing whether bridewealth and dowry practices in Africa protect women or further gender inequality. Both bridewealth and dowry have had the effect of redistributing wealth within the areas in which the people practicing it live, and in so doing also provide a homogenizing effect on class and status in Africa. The nature and uses of both forms have been changing in recent years, however, so that at present bridewealth among the elites often fills a role traditionally reserved for dowry. Though the concepts of bridewealth and dowry seem backward to those not practicing them, they have the effect of protecting women rather than undermining the advance of gender equality in Africa. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Bryce Courtenay's "The Power Of One": Alternative Ending
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Rising up against social dictate is never an easy objective, particularly when one is a child of African apartheid. Peekay, the protagonist in Bryce Courtenay's The Power of One overtly abandons all he knows of racial and political limitations, choosing instead to focus his life upon the elements of positive approach. Clearly, the only means by which Peekay could break free from the inherent constraints of racial tension was to rise above it. Changing the ending from the unexpected tryst between the hero and the neo-Nazi is not that difficult a task, inasmuch as one might readily envision a majority of South Africa's white voters ratifying de Klerk's decision to progress toward black majority rule. No additional sources cited.
