In
Western literary works, female characters often play an essential
role, whether in terms of the plot, significance, or even the poetics
of literary works. In Western literature before the Renaissance,
there are several famous women, including Helen, Penelope,
Clytemnestra, Dido, Medea, and Beatrice. For this essay, select THREE
of these characters and explain the role they have played in the
Western literary tradition. What do the differences among the three
characters you have chosen reveal about changes in the views of
women’s place in society? Your discussion should begin with a
statement illustrating your main idea, and your analysis should draw
on literary works that might include The Iliad,
Odyssey,
Aeneid,
Greek tragedies, St. Augustine’s Confessions,
and Divine Comedy.
