The irony is both of them sold their most prized possessions to get the other a special christmas present, however both of their presents are designed for the prized possession each one sold.
This is critic as both characters realised that the other person would give up their prized possession for them to be happy. This is a key message sent by the author through this book. They are wise as they know that people should be more valued over possessions.

Choose an event, current or historical, and explain how it is usually viewed. Next, using the Marxist or feminist critical liter
Lelu [443]

The Historical Event Is The Invasion Of The Spanish Armada Of 1588

The enormous sea fleet sent by King Philip II of Spain in 1588 to invade England. England tried to counter this fleet by fighting entirely with heavy guns, and the failure of Spain’s Armada saved England from possible absorption into the Spanish empire.

This event is usually viewed with an overwhelming focus on the battle itself,  showcasing the skills of the English fleet which was under the command of Charles Howard who battled the leadership of the experienced admiral Medina-Sidonia.

If we were to use the feminist critical literary theory the event would be viewed differently.

The Invasion Of The Spanish Armada Of 1588 happened during the Elizabethan Era, it was under her leadership that the Spanish Armada was defeated and she saved England from invasion, defending an invasion from the greatest European power of the age.

<em>¨I know I have the body of a weak, </em><em>feeble woman</em><em>; but I have the heart and stomach of a </em><em>king</em><em>, and of a </em><em>king of England</em><em> too.¨</em>

The feminist critical literary theory is a lense through which we can view a historical event. In literary criticism we may use reasoning, emotion and logic but it helps to try on different ¨lenses¨ to search for deeper meaning. Our view of the event may change if we are only concerned with the ways in which this event may reinforce or undermine the leadership of either the men or women involved or vice versa.
