a) The Disney movie selected for analysis is Cinderella.
b) The social institution in such movie is marriage.
c) Sociological perspective: Feminism.
Here is the analysis:
- In Disney's Cinderella, feminism, that is, the thought of equality between sexes, is not apparent. This approach takes roots in the movie's idea of a poor girl with a miserable life who dreams about a prince who marries her and takes her to his kingdom for "salvation" and, on the other hand, the prince falls in love with her only because she is pretty. But nowadays, feminism would ask: why does she need a prince to thrive in life when she is plenty and has plenty to make the effort to achieve her own progress?
- Another point for discussion is how do they fall in love in the first place: they barely know each other but, yeah, they are in love. So, the movie shows a "superficial love", since if Cinderella wasn't pretty, he would never love her back.
- Thus, the movie encourages little girls to aspire to find the other significant one and get married with a "him", instead of showing girls how to overcome themselves and afterwards, falling in love, because only if you fall in love with yourself, you can fall for someone else.
They all include a prefix “uni, uni, uni, and mono”
Hello. You did not show what were the themes of the unit to which the question refers, which may leave the answer a little inaccurate.
Two recurring themes in transcendentralistic music is the human capacity to live a rural life. This type of theme is widely found in country music, where nature and country life is portrayed as the ideal life, due to the hard work environment, but rewarding and the presence of nature that makes life lighter and more beautiful. Another recurring theme is the happiness of being loved by someone and how it affects the human being in a positive, magical and playful way, leaving life beautiful and decreasing the perception of problems that may arise.
These themes are completely centered on transcendentralism, which promotes the intimate relationship between the human being, his self, society and the environment. As these are very common themes, I feel influenced to talk about them, because they are also the themes that present a greater symbolism for me.
