Oscars 2022: How they could make history

 


In this year two LGBT actors were nominated to get Oscar in the same year- Kristen Stewart and Ariana DeBose. In the 1900s, LGBT cinema was some kind of a fringe interest- it means that it was considered as something not interesting for the large amount of viewers. This wasn't in the mainstream.

But now LGBT is in the spotlight more than ever. Even big celebrities as Angelina Jolie and Lady Gaga are the only open LGBT actor in singer, who were awarded before, so now it's different that in the Oscars 2022, Kristen Stewart and Ariana DeBose where nominated at the same time.

Maybe it’s the begging of the big, unite society, where all of the people are living together- they are equal(maybe I’m being irrationally optimistic). And I think it's good. The society became more tolerative and supporting to LGBT community- we are spreading awareness of the today's problems! There’s one main disadvantage- some of the people are going to far with this “supporting”. As if somebody was more worthy because they are in love with the same gender. They shouldn't reward a LGBT community only because it exists. We are the same people as everyone else.

    The topic and message aside, could you correct this sentence as it's utterly confusing and the grammar is broken: " Even big celebrities as Angelina Jolie and Lady Gaga are the only open LGBT actor in singer, who were awarded before, so now it's different that in the Oscars 2022, Kristen Stewart and Ariana DeBose where nominated at the same time."

What Jane Austen can teach us about resilience

Image
      Jane Austen is one of the pioneer in world literature. Her "Pride and Prejudice" is also one of the most famous book in the Europe. When I heard about her for the first time, I thought of her as a calssic romantic writer- with beautiful language and a great story. It lasted for a long time till i got "Pride and Prejudice"- which I finished in one sitting. I just couldn't get my eyes from the book- and it wasn't about romance that she wrote abou but also the vibe that the book gave me. After reading this article, I see her in much better lighting- not only as a taleneted woman but also as an excellent observer. Personally, I rode only one of her book and I watched the movie "Sense and Sensibilty", so I know what is it about. But as far as I got to know her works (or work because of one book), she was always interesting, so she was quite often on my mind. I always wanted to find an explanation what exactly I like about her, but atr first I was ...

Orientalism in fashion :)

Image
        ORIENTALISM IN FASHION Asian culture is source of inspiration for fashion designers since 17th century. The influence of this continet on Europe was vast! It begun beacuse the import of things from Asian culture increased, like Chinese ceramics or tulips from Turkey to Holland. Also brewed leaf, known as a tea, was unfamiliar to Europe. There were new materials, patterns and accesories in fashion that many people started to use. It all came to our continent from 17th to 19th centuries. Orientalism has its beginnig in Gothic and Barrocco. European style was mixed with new, Japanese, for example, old-fashioned robes were worn with oriental floral motifs (the symbolic flower was chrysanthemum).

Sylvia Plath: Will the poet always be defined by her death?

Image
  When I was scrolling throught the page of the BBC Culture, I had no idea what should I write about. So I became really happy, when I noticed article about Sylvia Plath- the writer, who wrote one of my favourite books- „The Bell Jar”. The fact that Sylvia Plath commited suicide, covers her entire career. Most of the critics see her as the one who is doomed to tragedy- like if her whole life, from the beginning had only one ending. Plath became ac icon of rebellious but deppressed woman- her main character in the story, Esther Greenwood is also described in thgis way. It is even more concerning that Plath created Esther as her alter-ego. Her works are linnked in a one way or another with life and death, suffering in everyday life. She is constantly questioning the meaning of life and what people should do with it. But I noticed that if a reader is focusing on the dark side of the Plath’s book and poetry, they are missing one thing- the fact that she is also showing the little drops...
