Reflexión de Casa de Muñecas

Reflexià ³n de Casa de Muà ±ecas Pregunta: ‚ ¿CÂÆ' ³mo se desarrollÂÆ' ³ su comprensiÂÆ' ³n de las consideraciones culturales y contextuales de la obra a travÂÆ' ©s de la actividad oral interactiva?Obra utilizada: Casa de MuÂÆ' ±ecas de Henrik IbsenEn el desarrollo de la discusiÂÆ' ³n, se expusieron a la clase algunas temÂÆ' ¡ticas. Entre los temas abordados se trata el amor y la amistad, el matrimonio y la familia, el machismo, el honor y las costumbres de la ÂÆ' ©poca. Cuando tratamos de las costumbres de la ÂÆ' ©poca se hizo ÂÆ' ©nfasis en el machismo que era base de la sociedad Noruega del siglo XIX, enfocado en la familia; asÂÆ' ­ se puede ver en la familia Helmer, donde Nora como mujer obededece a su marido, mientras Torvaldo era quiÂÆ' ©n mandaba y gobernaba en el hogar.La discusiÂÆ' ³n me permitiÂÆ' ³ darme cuenta que el matrimonio en la ÂÆ' ©poca estaba influenciado por la sociedad, donde se supone que habÂÆ' ­a amor, pero en realidad estaba presente el machismo y la manipulaciÂÆ' ³n; Henrik Ibsen en la obra presenta una crÂÆ' ­tica al matrimonio y la posiciÂÆ' ³n de la mujer en la sociedad; rompe con los modelos establecidos, ya que encontramos a la seÂÆ' ±ora Linde que trabaja y fue capaz de mantener a su familia.Silhoutte of Marichen Ibsen (1799-1869) as a young...AdemÂÆ' ¡s logre comprender como Nora al ser dependiente de su marido pierde su personalidad como mujer y persona, de esta forma el autor juzga como el machismo discriminaba a la mujer y la estaba convirtiendo en un juguete, que daba de orgullo y honor a su marido, haciÂÆ' ©ndolo ver a este como un buen hombre, ya que seguÂÆ' ­a las normas establecidas en la sociedad.Finalmente en conjunto con estas cuestiones que formaban parte del hilo de la historia, estÂÆ' ¡ el honor donde pude ver como este daba al gÂÆ' ©nero masculino supremacÂÆ' ­a, puesto que ganaba el respeto de los demÂÆ' ¡s, exaltando su dignidad, pero...

History of the Olympics - 1972 Olympic Games in Munich

History of the Olympics - 1972 Olympic Games in Munich The 1972 Olympic Games will probably be best remembered for the murder of eleven Israeli Olympians. On September 5, a day before the Games were to begin, eight Palestinian terrorists entered the Olympic Village and seized eleven members of the Israeli Olympic team. Two of the hostages were able to wound two of their captors before they were killed. The terrorists requested the release of 234 Palestinians that were being held in Israel. During a failed attempt at rescue, all of the remaining hostages and five of the terrorists were killed, and three terrorists were wounded. The IOC decided that the Games should go on. The following day there was a memorial service for the victims and the Olympic flags were flown at half staff. The opening of the Olympics was postponed one day. The decision of the IOC to continue the Games after such a horrific event was controversial. The Games Went On More controversies were to affect these Games. During the Olympic ​Games a dispute arose during the basketball game between the Soviet Union and the United States. With one second left on the clock, and the score in favor of the Americans at 50-49, the horn sounded. The Soviet coach had called a time-out. The clock was reset to three seconds and played out. The Soviets still hadnt scored and for some reason, the clock was again set back to three seconds. This time, Soviet player Alexander Belov made a basket and the game ended at 50-51 in the Soviets favor. Though the timekeeper and one of the referees stated that the additional three seconds was completely illegal, the Soviets were allowed to keep the gold. In an amazing feat, Mark Spitz (United States) dominated the swimming events and won seven gold medals. More than 7,000 athletes participated, representing 122 countries.
