Women tend to have a smaller place in classical mythology
than men, or are erased, interjected by, or entirely dominated by them. Too
often, myths focus solely on the masculine characters while women are silent or somewhat ignored. Both Penelope in The Penelopiad, by Margaret Atwood and Philomela in If We Were Birds by Erin Shields illustrates what happens once an individual becomes able to speak, and how the
structure of power and perception shifts. I argue that, through both author’s
use of adaptation, stories emerge, exploring the power of feminism and the use of their voice to breaking silence. I need a really strong thesis statement to wrap my argument up, that through the adaptation of old mythology, both these plays use feminism and their voices as tools to break the silence and stand up for the violence and injustices inflicted upon them. MLA FORMAT and I need direct lines from the 2 plays used to support claims throughout the paper, As well as in text quotations of my other article sources provided.
exploring the adaptation of two plays ” The Penelopiad” Margaret Atwood and “If We Were Birds” Erin Shields and how they adapt the plays to empower feminism and the use of feminine voices as a tool to breaking the silence
