Résumé de l’œuvre La Lettre écarlate relate l’histoire de Hester Prynne, une jeune femme qui vit dans une communauté puritaine. Description des personnages principaux Hester Prynne est une jeune femme courageuse ; le narrateur évoque souvent « son incroyable énergie combative » qui lui a permis de transformer son châtiment en triomphe. Néanmoins son dévouement pour les pauvres et les personnes seules va lui permettre de se racheter aux yeux de sa communauté.
Pearl est la fille de Hester ; son prénom évoque bien sa beauté dont il est question dans le roman. Arthur Dimmesdale est un jeune pasteur adulé de tous, autant de ses pairs que de ses paroissiens.

Short answer: Slut-shaming, also known as slut-bashing, is the idea of shaming and/or attacking a woman or a girl for being sexual, having one or more sexual partners, acknowledging sexual feelings, and/or acting on sexual feelings.
Furthermore, it’s “about the implication that if a woman has sex that traditional society disapproves of, she should feel guilty and inferior” (Alon Levy, Slut Shaming). It is damaging not only to the girls and women targeted, but to women in general an society as a whole. It should be noted that slut-shaming can occur even if the term “slut” itself is not used. What constitutes “slut-shaming” Put in the most simple terms, slut-shaming happens when a person “publicly or privately [insults] a woman because she expressed her sexuality in a way that does not conform with patriarchal expectations for women” (Kat, Slut-Shaming vs.
As illustrated above, any woman who has had sex can be a victim of slut-shaming. The sexual double standard On “Male Sluts” Introductory: Easy A’s Bert V. Royal. Bert V.
Royal finds inspiration from John Hughes and Nathaniel Hawthorne to script the smart and funny new high school morality tale Easy A. Written by Dylan Callaghan There can be virtue in mooching off one’s parents and screenwriter-playwright Bert V. Royal is the proof. Before he became a writer, the author of the smart, new high school comedy Easy A, starring Emma Stone (Superbad, Zombieland), was pulling double duty as a casting director and nightclub doorman in Manhattan when his tank ran empty. “I was burned out, exhausted,” he explains. In keeping with this false pretext, he spent the next two and half months, “on my ass watching daytime television.” But here’s where Royal found the virtue in a few paid months off work: unlike a less talented mooch, he actually sat down and wrote a stage play that was quickly mounted in New York.
Easy A came about just as smoothly and is Royal’s first produced script. Absolutely. Were you homeschooled? I was homeschooled. Yes. It was awful. Wow. No. Teen-movies et littérature classique. Dans mon post d'hier, il y avait une capture d'Easy A, avec Emma Stone.
L'occasion de constituer l'un de ces coffrets DVD de Noël rêvés comme on (je?) Les aime : Les Adaptations de Romans Sentimentaux en Milieu Scolaire. (29,99€) Les Américains en raffolent (enfin, il y en a trois) et un certain Français Très Français s'y est essayé aussi. Easy A. Over the Christmas break, I rewatched the comedy Easy A (thank you, Netflix!).
For those who are unfamiliar, Easy A is a teen movie about a girl named Olive, who lies to her best friend about losing her virginity, and instantly becomes the focus of her school’s gossip mill. When a gay friend asks her to pretend to hook up with him to save him from bullying, she sews a scarlet A on her clothes and goes into business as the School Slut, allowing desperate guys to lie about hooking up with her in exchange for gift vouchers and money. Meanwhile, the school’s Jesus Brigade turns on her, determined to force her to leave the school for her sinful behavior. The film has been praised as a feminist teen movie, with a powerful message about teen sexuality (aka, that it’s no one’s business but your own). And Easy A is a really fun film. Outside of Olive and her family, not a single female character in the movie is likeable. But the biggest problems in the movie are the lies themselves.
