4.1724 A Critique of John White's 'Eros Defiled'.
This paper is a critique of John White's 'Eros Defiled'. White's book, divided into the sections "Sin, Sex, and You", "Sexual Sins", and "The Church and Sexual Sin", offers extraordinary insights and guidance to Christians interested in navigating the hedonistic seas of contemporary society. Skilled as a counsellor and psychiatrist, White's advice speaks to the core oncerns of those disturbed by society's expectations and their relation to Christian responsibilities. While perhaps 'behind the times' in terms of its attitudes and willingness to discriminate between appropriate and inappropriate sexual behaviour, 'Eros Defiled' defines timeless truths about the role of sexuality in our lives. 4 pgs. 4 f/c. 1b.

5.1746 A Different Perspective: Three Views on Modern Feminist Art.
This paper will examine three general approaches in modern feminist art by three feminist artists. It will be argued that these feminists assume radically different perspectives with regard to their mediums and objectives. Under the general categories of "the Body Politic" (feminism and politics), "the Body Social" (representations of the human body as a site of conflicting social values) and "Decoration vs. Abstraction" (hierarchical double standards with regard to "male" abstraction and "female" decorative arts), it will be shown how these differences in part reflect the shifting phases of modern feminist art, but more importantly signify the diverse multiplicity of modern feminist art. 10 pgs. 9 f/c. 6b.

This paper will argue that all three works discussed here interrogate sexist preconceptions of power in Q'ing China by employing variations on the traditional Chinese story of Mu-lan who usurps male power by assuming a male guise. 9 pgs. 11 f/c. 3b.

7.2824 Western Culture and Gender Roles.
This paper will focus on the historical roots of these gender roles. Specifically a selection of texts from classical Greece and the Christian heritage of western culture will be examined. Initially, the creation myth as it is presented in "Genesis" will be analyzed. Subsequently, a selection from the writings of the classical Greek philosopher Aristotle will be considered. Analysis of both of these texts will serve to establish the roots of patriarchy in the two streams of thought at the basis of western culture. Finally, the work of Plutarch will be considered. 7 pgs. 9 f/c. 3b.
