Part 1 (please use the heading Analysis): At least 500 words In your analysis of the Hours, you should begin by discussing the characters Virginia Woolf, Lara Brown, and Clarissa Vaughan. Although these characters are quite different in terms of times in which they lived, their relationships, and even their sexuality, there are important issues that unite them. In your discussion of these commonalities, your focal points should be: 1. Domesticity (the assumption that women are naturally caregivers whose primary role in life should be that of a wife confined to the domestic realm); 2. The feeling of thwarted potential, lack of freedom and individuality within the institution of marriage. In the case of Clarissa Vaughan, you will primarily want to discuss her relationship with Richard, as it seems to symbolize the traditional heterosexual marriage. Please underline the characters’ names the first time you mention them. You should not provide a summary of the film as one would see online in a movie review or summary, but really dig deep into the meanings of what the characters are doing Part 2 (New paragraph: please use the heading Feminine Mystique): At least 400 words Summary of the feminine mystique article (copy and paste into browser if necessary) focusing on depth and details of the reading and connect it to the film; filedownload.ashx (oneida-boces.org) Part 3 (New paragraph: please use the heading Opinion Section: This should be the shortest section as the most points will be applied to parts 1 and 2) At least 100 words You should also incorporate your opinion about the lessons we are taught through these characters as well as The Feminine Mystique reading. Do you feel as if it is possible to achieve one’s true potential though marriage or is singlehood (in some shape or form) necessary for this, at least for women? Maybe there’s room for women’s freedom and individuality within a marriage? There is no right or wrong answer regarding your opinion if you think/don’t think women can achieve their true potential via singlehood.
