1. Compare the treatment of the themes of sexuality and aggression/violence in a work of art, literature, & music. How does the form of the individual work relate to its content?
2. Compare the disappearance of the central male authority figure in a work of art, literature, & music. How is this disappearance reflected in the form or structure of the work? (You can choose one art work or the body of work by an artist.)
