Justice for the women

In the story, The Book of the City of the Ladies, we see a different world through the narration.  She is lead to create an entire city by three women who represent Justice, Rectitude, and Reason. This city that is established protects women from the rude comments and actions of male counterparts.  Christine goes through each level and learns all different tools that aid in her learning her worth.  The worth is so important and shows that she should always be valued as a woman. A few questions..

1. Should she have listened and built the city? Or left well enough alone?
   
2. Is there more to the levels than what she accomplishes?
   
3. Should we see more of what happens after she completes the city?
   
   

The Strength of Athena

In the Odyssey, we see a lot of Athena. Athena is as we know the goddess of wisdom, purposeful battle, and the womanly arts. She is also the daughter of Zeus and intertwined with Odysseus. When Odysseus is trapped, Athena is the one whom is most upset. She is a strong and powerful goddess and tries to help. She takes special interest in helping Odysseus when he is trapped by Poseidon's Cyclops. Also, she puts herself on the line for Telemachus. She does not take the lead in fighting but she fights alongside both Odysseus and Telemachus. She teaches Odysseus the meaning of being a hero. Athena is responsible for teachings of lessons needed to create the Odyssey’s plot. With taking Athena’s strength into account, here are a few questions:

1. Should we see more of Athena? 
2. Should Athena be discussed more because of the power she has on the Odyssey? 
3. Should there be more discussion on how Athena and Odysseus work together and create the plot of the odyssey?
