Sandra Cisneros and “Woman Hollering Creek”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing Sandra Cisneros and her short story “Woman Hollering Creek”. Includes an outline. Through the character of Cleofilas, Sandra Cisneros is able to exemplify many of the feminist and cultural issues which she has seen reflected in her own life. Writing from her own experiences, Cisneros would understand how Mexican women with traditional values may believe that they have no other options available to them other than to stay within an unhappy marriage. Cleofilas is able to get enough courage to break free but does not feel truly liberated until it is pointed out to her by her friend that women can “holler” for their freedom rather than wail and sob for their own pity. Cisneros would be able to best understand these concepts from her own experiences and seeing the liberal lifestyle which can exist within America yet still having the deep memories of her impoverished Mexican past. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

The Mexican Revolution
[ send me this paper ]
A 16 page research paper that gives an overview of this turbulent period in Mexican history. The writer argues that the leaders of the Mexican Revolution were just as courageous, just as idealistic and just as patriotic as the leaders of the American Revolution. Like the early U.S. leaders, they also were not in total agreement as to their vision of how their country's future should be accomplished; however, the Mexican leaders lacked the administrative skills and experience that enabled their U.S. counterparts to compromise and form an effective government. Consequently, the history of revolution in Mexico was much more turbulent than that of the U.S. and was marked by successive revolts. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

The “Sun Stone” or Aztec Calendar -- Meanings, Iconography, Purposes:
[ send me this paper ]
This 11 page report discusses the ancient civilization of the Aztecs and their remarkable “Sun Stone” or calendar. In the Aztec system there are actually two Aztec calendars that are essentially independent of one another. However, both are on the “Sun Stone.” They reflect two different aspects of time which represent the two most important aspects of Aztec life -- agriculture and spirituality. One of the calendars marks 365 days and is called the xiuhpohualli. It describes the days and rituals that are connected with the different seasons, and is generally thought of as the agricultural or solar year calendar. The other calendar consists of only 260 days. In the language of the Aztecs (Nahuatl), it is called the tonalpohualli simply meaning the “day-count.” Bibliography lists 8 sources.
