Miles Davis quotCollectors' Itemsquot Prestige Records LP 7044 - Jazz Vinyl Record Album - Deep Groove - JAZZ-LpMilesDavisCollectorsItem-1.jpg

This set lives up to its title by including such interesting sessions as the 1953 date on which Miles Davis welcomed the two tenors of Sonny Rollins and Charlie Parker other meetings with Rollins in 1951 and 1956 and a moody 1955 date with bassist Charles Mingus trombone vibes and drums (a young Elvin Jones) Highlights include No Line Vierd Blues In Your Own Sweet Way Nature Boy and There's No You It's classic if often overlooked music from a variety of immortal jazzmen nnThroughout a professional career lasting 50 years Miles Davis played the trumpet in a lyrical introspective and melodic style often employing a stemless Harmon mute to make his sound more personal and intimate But if his approach to his instrument was constant his approach to jazz was dazzlingly protean To examine his career is to examine the history of jazz from the mid-'40s to the early '90s since he was in the thick of almost every important innovation and stylistic development in the music during that period and he often led the way in those changes both with his own performances and recordings and by choosing sidemen and collaborators who forged new directions It can even be argued that jazz stopped evolving when Davis wasn't there to push it forwardnnDavis was the son of a dental surgeon Dr Miles Dewey Davis Jr and a music teacher Cleota Mae (Henry) Davis and thus grew up in the black middle class of east St Louis after the family moved there shortly after his birth He became interested in music during his childhood and by the age of 12 began taking trumpet lessons While still in high school he started to get jobs playing in local bars and at 16 was playing gigs out of town on weekends At 17 he joined Eddie Randle's Blue Devils a territory band based in St Louis He enjoyed a personal apotheosis in 1944 just after graduating from high school when he saw and was allowed to sit in with Billy Eckstine's big band who was playing in St Louis The band featured trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie and saxophonist Charlie Parker the architects of the emerging bebop style of jazz which was characterized by fast inventive soloing and dynamic rhythm variations It is striking that Davis fell so completely under Gillespie and Parker's spell since his own slower and less flashy style never really compared to theirs But bebop was the new sound of the day and the young trumpeter was bound to follow it He did so by leaving the Midwest to attend the Institute of Musical Art in New York City (renamed Juilliard) in September 1944 Shortly after his arrival in Manhattan he was playing in clubs with Parker and by 1945 he had abandoned his academic studies for a full-time career as a jazz musician initially joining Benny Carter's band and making his first recordings as a sideman He played with Eckstine in 1946-1947 and was a member of Parker's group in 1947-1948 making his recording debut as a leader on a 1947 session that featured Parker pianist John Lewis bassist Nelson Boyd and drummer Max Roach This was an isolated date however and Davis spent most of his time playing and recording behind Parker But in the summer of 1948 he organized a nine-piece band with an unusual horn section In addition to himself it featured an alto saxophone a baritone saxophone a trombone a French horn and a tuba This nonet employing arrangements by Gil Evans and others played for two weeks at the Royal Roost in New York in September Earning a contract with Capitol Records the band went into the studio in January 1949 for the first of three sessions which produced 12 tracks that attracted little attention at first The band's relaxed sound however affected the musicians who played it among them Kai Winding Lee Konitz Gerry Mulligan John Lewis JJ Johnson and Kenny Clarke and it had a profound influence on the development of the cool jazz style on the West Coast In February 1957 Capitol finally issued the tracks together on an LP called Birth of the Cool Davis meanwhile had moved on to co-leading a band with pianist Tadd Dameron in 1949 and the group took him out of the country for an appearance at the Paris Jazz Festival in May But the trumpeter's progress was impeded by an addiction to heroin that plagued him in the early '50s His performances and recordings became more haphazard but in January 1951 he began a long series of recordings for the Prestige label that became his main recording outlet for the next several years He managed to kick his habit by the middle of the decade and he made a strong impression playing 'Round Midnight at the Newport Jazz Festival in July 1955 a performance that led the major label Columbia Records to sign him The prestigious contract allowed him to put together a permanent band and he organized a quintet featuring saxophonist John Coltrane pianist Red Garland bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Philly Joe Jones who began recording his Columbia debut 'Round About Midnight in October As it happened however he had a remaining five albums on his Prestige contract and over the next year he was forced to alternate his Columbia sessions with sessions for Prestige to fulfill this previous commitment The latter resulted in the Prestige albums The New Miles Davis Quintet Cookin' Workin' Relaxin' and Steamin' making Davis' first quintet one of his better-documented outfits In May 1957 just three months after Capitol released the Birth of the Cool LP Davis again teamed with arranger Gil Evans for his second Columbia LP Miles Ahead Playing flgelhorn Davis fronted a big band on music that extended the Birth of the Cool concept and even had classical overtones Released in 1958 the album was later inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame intended to honor recordings made before the Grammy Awards were instituted in 1959 In December 1957 Davis returned to Paris where he improvised the background music for the film L'Ascenseur pour l'Echafaud (Escalator to the Gallows) Jazz Track an album containing this music earned him a 1960 Grammy nomination for Best Jazz Performance Solo or Small Group He added saxophonist Cannonball Adderley to his group creating the Miles Davis Sextet who recorded the album Milestones in April 1958 Shortly after this recording Red Garland was replaced on piano by Bill Evans and Jimmy Cobb took over for Philly Joe Jones on drums In July Davis again collaborated with Gil Evans and an orchestra on an album of music from Porgy and Bess Back in the sextet Davis began to experiment with modal playing basing his improvisations on scales rather than chord changes This led to his next band recording Kind of Blue in March and April 1959 an album that became a landmark in modern jazz and the most popular disc of Davis' career eventually selling over two million copies a phenomenal success for a jazz record In sessions held in November 1959 and March 1960 Davis again followed his pattern of alternating band releases and collaborations with Gil Evans recording Sketches of Spain containing traditional Spanish music and original compositions in that style The album earned Davis and Evans Grammy nominations in 1960 for Best Jazz Performance Large Group and Best Jazz Composition More Than 5 minutes they won in the latter categorynnBy the time Davis returned to the studio to make his next band album in March 1961 Adderley had departed Wynton Kelly had replaced Bill Evans at the piano and John Coltrane had left to begin his successful solo career being replaced by saxophonist Hank Mobley (following the brief tenure of Sonny Stitt) Nevertheless Coltrane guested on a couple of tracks of the album called Someday My Prince Will Come The record made the pop charts in March 1962 but it was preceded into the bestseller lists by the Davis quintet's next recording the two-LP set Miles Davis in Person (Friday amp Saturday Nights at the Blackhawk San Francisco) recorded in April The following month Davis recorded another live show as he and his band were joined by an orchestra led by Gil Evans at Carnegie Hall in May The resulting Miles Davis at Carnegie Hall was his third LP to reach the pop charts and it earned Davis and Evans a 1962 Grammy nomination for Best Jazz Performance by a Large Group Instrumental Davis and Evans teamed up again in 1962 for what became their final collaboration Quiet Nights The album was not issued until 1964 when it reached the charts and earned a Grammy nomination for Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Large Group or Soloist with Large Group In 1996 Columbia Records released a six-CD box set Miles Davis amp Gil Evans: The Complete Columbia Studio Recordings that won the Grammy for Best Historical Album Quiet Nights was preceded into the marketplace by Davis' next band effort Seven Steps to Heaven recorded in the spring of 1963 with an entirely new lineup consisting of saxophonist George Coleman pianist Victor Feldman bassist Ron Carter and drummer Frank Butler During the sessions Feldman was replaced by Herbie Hancock and Butler by Tony Williams The album found Davis making a transition to his next great group of which Carter Hancock and Williams would be members It was another pop chart entry that earned 1963 Grammy nominations for both Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Soloist or Small Group and Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Large Group The quintet followed with two live albums Miles Davis in Europe recorded in July 1963 which made the pop charts and earned a 1964 Grammy nomination for Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Small Group or Soloist with Small Group and My Funny Valentine recorded in February 1964 and released in 1965 when it reached the pop charts By September 1964 the final member of the classic Miles Davis Quintet of the 1960s was in place with the addition of saxophonist Wayne Shorter to the team of Davis Carter Hancock and Williams While continuing to play standards in concert this unit embarked on a series of albums of original compositions contributed by the band members starting in January 1965 with ESP followed by Miles Smiles (1967 Grammy nomination for Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Small Group or Soloist with Small Group 7 or Fewer) Sorcerer Nefertiti Miles in the Sky (1968 Grammy nomination for Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Small Group or Soloist with Small Group) and Filles de Kilimanjaro By the time of Miles in the Sky the group had begun to turn to electric instruments presaging Davis' next stylistic turn By the final sessions for Filles de Kilimanjaro in September 1968 Hancock had been replaced by Chick Corea and Carter by Dave Holland But Hancock along with pianist Joe Zawinul and guitarist John McLaughlin participated on Davis' next album In a Silent Way (1969) which returned the trumpeter to the pop charts for the first time in four years and earned him another small-group jazz performance Grammy nomination With his next album Bitches Brew Davis turned more overtly to a jazz-rock style Though certainly not conventional rock music Davis' electrified sound attracted a young non-jazz audience while putting off traditional jazz fans Bitches Brew released in March 1970 reached the pop Top 40 and became Davis' first album to be certified gold It also earned a Grammy nomination for Best Instrumental Arrangement and won the Grammy for large-group jazz performance He followed it with such similar efforts as Miles Davis at Fillmore East (1971 Grammy nomination for Best Jazz Performance by a Group) A Tribute to Jack Johnson Live-Evil On the Corner and In Concert all of which reached the pop charts Meanwhile Davis' former sidemen became his disciples in a series of fusion groups: Corea formed Return to Forever Shorter and Zawinul led Weather Report and McLaughlin and former Davis drummer Billy Cobham organized the Mahavishnu Orchestra Starting in October 1972 when he broke his ankles in a car accident Davis became less active in the early '70s and in 1975 he gave up recording entirely due to illness undergoing surgery for hip replacement later in the year Five years passed before he returned to action by recording The Man With the Horn in 1980 and going back to touring in 1981 By now he was an elder statesman of jazz and his innovations had been incorporated into the music at least by those who supported his eclectic approach He was also a celebrity whose appeal extended far beyond the basic jazz audience He performed on the worldwide jazz festival circuit and recorded a series of albums that made the pop charts including We Want Miles (1982 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance by a Soloist) Star People Decoy and You're Under Arrest In 1986 after 30 years with Columbia he switched to Warner Bros Records and released Tutu which won him his fourth Grammy for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance Aura an album he had recorded in 1984 was released by Columbia in 1989 and brought him his fifth Grammy for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance by a Soloist (on a Jazz Recording) Davis surprised jazz fans when on July 8 1991 he joined an orchestra led by Quincy Jones at the Montreux Jazz Festival to perform some of the arrangements written for him in the late '50s by Gil Evans he had never previously looked back at an aspect of his career He died of pneumonia respiratory failure and a stroke within months Doo-Bop his last studio album appeared in 1992 It was a collaboration with rapper Easy Mo Bee and it won a Grammy for Best Rhythm amp Blues Instrumental Performance with the track Fantasy nominated for Best Jazz Instrumental Solo Released in 1993 Miles amp Quincy Live at Montreux won Davis his seventh Grammy for Best Large Jazz Ensemble PerformancennMiles Davis took an all-inclusive constantly restless approach to jazz that had begun to fall out of favor by the time of his death even as it earned him controversy during his lifetime It was hard to recognize the bebop acolyte of Charlie Parker in the flamboyantly dressed leader with the hair extensions who seemed to keep one foot on a wah-wah pedal and one hand on an electric keyboard in his later years But he did much to popularize jazz reversing the trend away from commercial appeal that bebop began And whatever the fripperies and explorations he retained an ability to play moving solos that endeared him to audiences and demonstrated his affinity with tradition At a time when jazz is inclining toward academia and repertory orchestras rather than moving forward he is a reminder of the music's essential quality of boundless invention using all available means

Pink Floyd quotA Saucer Full of Secretsquot Tower Records 5131 - Striped Label - 1968 Progressive Rock Vinyl LP

Pink Floyd quotA Saucer Full of Secretsquot Tower Records 5131 - Striped Label - 1968 Progressive Rock Vinyl LP - PROG-PinkFloydLPSaucerFullofSecrets.jpg

A transitional album on which the band moved from Syd Barrett's relatively concise and vivid songs to spacy ethereal material with lengthy instrumental passages Barrett's influence is still felt (he actually did manage to contribute one track the jovial Jugband Blues) and much of the material retains a gentle fairy-tale ambience Remember a Day and See Saw are highlights on Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun Let There Be More Light and the lengthy instrumental title track the band begin to map out the dark and repetitive pulses that would characterize their next few recordsnnPink Floyd is the premier space rock band Since the mid-'60s their music relentlessly tinkered with electronics and all manner of special effects to push pop formats to their outer limits At the same time they wrestled with lyrical themes and concepts of such massive scale that their music has taken on almost classical operatic quality in both sound and words Despite their astral image the group was brought down to earth in the 1980s by decidedly mundane power struggles over leadership and ultimately ownership of the band's very name After that time they were little more than a dinosaur act capable of filling stadiums and topping the charts but offering little more than a spectacular recreation of their most successful formulas Their latter-day staleness cannot disguise the fact that for the first decade or so of their existence they were one of the most innovative groups around in concert and (especially) in the studionnWhile Pink Floyd are mostly known for their grandiose concept albums of the 1970s they started as a very different sort of psychedelic band Soon after they first began playing together in the mid-'60s they fell firmly under the leadership of lead guitarist Syd Barrett the gifted genius who would write and sing most of their early material The Cambridge native shared the stage with Roger Waters (bass) Rick Wright (keyboards) and Nick Mason (drums) The name Pink Floyd seemingly so far-out was actually derived from the first names of two ancient bluesmen (Pink Anderson and Floyd Council) And at first Pink Floyd were much more conventional than the act into which they would evolve concentrating on the rock and RampB material that were so common to the repertoires of mid-'60s British bandsnnPink Floyd quickly began to experiment however stretching out songs with wild instrumental freak-out passages incorporating feedback electronic screeches and unusual eerie sounds created by loud amplification reverb and such tricks as sliding ball bearings up and down guitar strings In 1966 they began to pick up a following in the London underground on-stage they began to incorporate light shows to add to the psychedelic effect Most importantly Syd Barrett began to compose pop-psychedelic gems that combined unusual psychedelic arrangements (particularly in the haunting guitar and celestial organ licks) with catchy melodies and incisive lyrics that viewed the world with a sense of poetic childlike wondernnThe group landed a recording contract with EMI in early 1967 and made the Top 20 with a brilliant debut single Arnold Layne a sympathetic comic vignette about a transvestite The follow-up the kaleidoscopic See Emily Play made the Top Ten The debut album The Piper at the Gates of Dawn also released in 1967 may have been the greatest British psychedelic album other than Sgt Pepper's Dominated almost wholly by Barrett's songs the album was a charming fun house of driving mysterious rockers (Lucifer Sam) odd character sketches (The Gnome) childhood flashbacks (Bike Matilda Mother) and freakier pieces with lengthy instrumental passages (Astronomy Domine Interstellar Overdrive Pow R Toch) that mapped out their fascination with space travel The record was not only like no other at the time it was like no other that Pink Floyd would make colored as it was by a vision that was far more humorous pop-friendly and lighthearted than those of their subsequent epicsnnThe reason Pink Floyd never made a similar album was that Piper was the only one to be recorded under Barrett's leadership Around mid-1967 the prodigy began showing increasingly alarming signs of mental instability Barrett would go catatonic on-stage playing music that had little to do with the material or not playing at all An American tour had to be cut short when he was barely able to function at all let alone play the pop star game Dependent upon Barrett for most of their vision and material the rest of the group was nevertheless finding him impossible to work with live or in the studionnAround the beginning of 1968 guitarist Dave Gilmour a friend of the band who was also from Cambridge was brought in as a fifth member The idea was that Gilmour would enable the Floyd to continue as a live outfit Barrett would still be able to write and contribute to the records That couldn't work either and within a few months Barrett was out of the group Pink Floyd's management looking at the wreckage of a band that was now without its lead guitarist lead singer and primary songwriter decided to abandon the group and manage Barrett as a solo actnnSuch calamities would have proven insurmountable for 99 out of 100 bands in similar predicaments Incredibly Pink Floyd would regroup and not only maintain their popularity but eventually become even more successful It was early in the game yet after all the first album had made the British Top Ten but the group was still virtually unknown in America where the loss of Syd Barrett meant nothing to the media Gilmour was an excellent guitarist and the band proved capable of writing enough original material to generate further ambitious albums Waters eventually emerging as the dominant composer The 1968 follow-up to Piper at the Gates of Dawn A Saucerful of Secrets made the British Top Ten using Barrett's vision as an obvious blueprint but taking a more formal somber and quasi-classical tone especially in the long instrumental parts Barrett for his part would go on to make a couple of interesting solo records before his mental problems instigated a retreat into oblivionnnOver the next four years Pink Floyd would continue to polish their brand of experimental rock which married psychedelia with ever-grander arrangements on a Wagnerian operatic scale Hidden underneath the pulsing reverberant organs and guitars and insistently restated themes were subtle blues and pop influences that kept the material accessible to a wide audience Abandoning the singles market they concentrated on album-length works and built a huge following in the progressive rock underground with constant touring in both Europe and North America While LPs like Ummagumma (divided into live recordings and experimental outings by each member of the band) Atom Heart Mother (a collaboration with composer Ron Geesin) and More (a film soundtrack) were erratic each contained some extremely effective musicnnBy the early '70s Syd Barrett was a fading or nonexistent memory for most of Pink Floyd's fans although the group one could argue never did match the brilliance of that somewhat anomalous 1967 debut Meddle (1971) sharpened the band's sprawling epics into something more accessible and polished the science fiction ambience that the group had been exploring ever since 1968 Nothing however prepared Pink Floyd or their audience for the massive mainstream success of their 1973 album Dark Side of the Moon which made their brand of cosmic rock even more approachable with state-of-the-art production more focused songwriting an army of well-time stereophonic sound effects and touches of saxophone and soulful female backup vocalsnnDark Side of the Moon finally broke Pink Floyd as superstars in the United States where it made number one More astonishingly it made them one of the biggest-selling acts of all time Dark Side of the Moon spent an incomprehensible 741 weeks on the Billboard album chart Additionally the primarily instrumental textures of the songs helped make Dark Side of the Moon easily translatable on an international level and the record became (and still is) one of the most popular rock albums worldwidennIt was also an extremely hard act to follow although the follow-up Wish You Were Here (1975) also made number one highlighted by a tribute of sorts to the long-departed Barrett Shine On You Crazy Diamond Dark Side of the Moon had been dominated by lyrical themes of insecurity fear and the cold sterility of modern life Wish You Were Here and Animals (1977) developed these morose themes even more explicitly By this time Waters was taking a firm hand over Pink Floyd's lyrical and musical vision which was consolidated by The Wall (1979)nnThe bleak overambitious double concept album concerned itself with the material and emotional walls modern humans build around themselves for survival The Wall was a huge success (even by Pink Floyd's standards) in part because the music was losing some of its heavy-duty electronic textures in favor of more approachable pop elements Although Pink Floyd had rarely even released singles since the late '60s one of the tracks Another Brick in the Wall became a transatlantic number one The band had been launching increasingly elaborate stage shows throughout the '70s but the touring production of The Wall featuring a construction of an actual wall during the band's performance was the most excessive yetnnIn the 1980s the group began to unravel Each of the four had done some side and solo projects in the past more troublingly Waters was asserting control of the band's musical and lyrical identity That wouldn't have been such a problem had The Final Cut (1983) been such an unimpressive effort with little of the electronic innovation so typical of their previous work Shortly afterward the band split up -- for a while In 1986 Waters was suing Gilmour and Mason to dissolve the group's partnership (Wright had lost full membership status entirely) Waters lost leaving a Roger-less Pink Floyd to get a Top Five album with Momentary Lapse of Reason in 1987 In an irony that was nothing less than cosmic about 20 years after Pink Floyd shed their original leader to resume their career with great commercial success they would do the same again to his successor Waters released ambitious solo albums to nothing more than moderate sales and attention while he watched his former colleagues (with Wright back in tow) rescale the chartsnnPink Floyd still had a huge fan base but there's little that's noteworthy about their post-Waters output They knew their formula could execute it on a grand scale and could count on millions of customers -- many of them unborn when Dark Side of the Moon came out and unaware that Syd Barrett was ever a member -- to buy their records and see their sporadic tours The Division Bell their first studio album in seven years topped the charts in 1994 without making any impact on the current rock scene except in a marketing sense Ditto for the live Pulse album recorded during a typically elaborately staged 1994 tour which included a concert version of The Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety Waters' solo career sputtered along highlighted by a solo recreation of The Wall performed at the site of the former Berlin Wall in 1990 and released as an album Syd Barrett continued to be completely removed from the public eye except as a sort of archetype for the fallen genius

Compare the authors presentations of women and power in The Color Purple and Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit Which in your opinion is more effectivennnnnEnglish LiteraturennJamie ScottnnCandidate: 5121nCentre Number: 37323 nCompare the authors presentations of women and power in The Color Purple and Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit Which in your opinion is more effectivennnnIn the novels The Color Purple and Oranges are Not the Only Fruit women are portrayed in both similar and different ways The first major similarities shared by the books are the lead characters- both Celie and Jeanette are young girls living with their adoptive guardians and both girls are involved in lesbian relationships at some point in the story These similarities in the heroines of the stories provide the basis for my investigation as they are a catalyst for all the major examples of women and power throughout both novelsnIn The Color Purple women are treated as slaves and sexual objects This view is reflected well in Celies relationship with Mr- he marries her so she has to look after his children and frequently rapes her nnnnnnnnThe almost complete opposite of this is Sofia and Harpos relationship where Sofia is dominant and commands Harpos every movementnnIn Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit there are no particularly extreme signs of sexual or sexist domination by either gender There are however instances where one character of the novel (or a group of characters) are shown to discriminate against other characters nnIn both The Color Purple and Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit the most important characters are female Many of the major decisions which make up the stories are made by women In both novels the lead characters are greatly affected by the teachings and views of other women in the books In The Color Purple the women who influence Celie and her decisions are Shug Avery Nettie and Sofia nBeing portrayed at the start of the novel as her protector Nettie is the first person to show Celie ways in which she can become independent Although these first lessons seem to be just childish fun at the start of the novel they provide a basis for Walker to expand upon with other characters When Nettie fights off Mrs sexual advances she shows that women are not just objects for men to use at their own will nAfter Nettie is thrown out of Mrs house (letter 11) we dont hear much about her until later in the novel (letter 51) Now she is not Celies protector but is instead showing her power and independence by trying to save the Olinka village in Africa nSoon after Nettie makes a disappearance from the novel Walker introduces us to an even more influential character- Shug Avery When Shug first arrives at Mrs home she is sick with nasty woman disease this possibly being Walkers euphemism for a sexually transmitted infection If this was the case Shugs first appearance in the story would be also the first time she is shown to have traditionally masculine qualities- by being promiscuous Much unlike the majority of the women in The Color Purple Shug is not oppressed by men she doesnt allow herself to be dominated by anyone Her strong personality is a major part of her overall effect in the book her looks and career being mainly symbols of her power over the opposite sexnThroughout the novel Shug has different roles many of which are because of the parts she plays towards Celie At various points in the book Shug plays the part of Celies mother sister friend lover and teachernnnnnnnnThe lessons Shug teaches Celie are factors in the climax of the novel Without the influence of Shug Celie would still be the downtrodden passive character she is in the first few letters By learning to her own sexuality and voice Celie manages to recover her identity and eventually even believe in a different religious viewnLike Shug Sofia is a character who refuses to be dominated by anyone whether they are white men or anyone elsenAfter confronting Celie over her advice to Harpo (on beating Sofia in order to gain power within the household) Celie admits that she only told him to do such things because she was jealous of Sofias presence and the way she stands up for herself This is important in Celies life as it is the first time she realises that anyone can gain respect or power by being persistent enough to endure the hardships that life brings but also to take a stand and show that they have their own voice and identitynCelie herself is at the end of the novel a heroic figure to both the reader and to the other characters After suffering for so long at the hands of Pa and later Mr Celie finally stands up for herself and secures herself a future by making her voice be heard This act is the climax of the novel and after such a build-up the reader feels a sense of victory both for Celie and for themselves Being a feminist Walkers novel is obviously in the favour of the female gender but the victory over oppression is universal and can be applied to any person who has suffered from either gender nWalker manages to show that women can triumph over men if they band together creating her own feminist movement within the novel although she does so in a way which emphasises the importance of relationships and sisterhood rather than the stereotypical anti-men views of some womennnnnnnnnnnIn Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit the characters who make the majority of the decisions which affect either the story or Jeanette are her mother and Elsie Norris nJeanettes mother is described at the start of the novel as old testament through and through by the narrator In the old testament God was easily angered and mean-spirited This summary of Jeanettes mothers character is one which fits perfectly as her love of Jeanette fluctuates in correlation with Jeanettes fulfilment of her mothers wishesnBy being one of the most religious characters Jeanettes mother is also one of the most hypocritical Her actions towards her daughter are harsh and unloving unlike the kind and generous actions expected from a true believer in Jesus teachings nnnnnnnHer ability to control Jeanettes actions as a child becomes less and less throughout the novel until the end where Jeanette effectively disowns her The decrease in the power she has over Jeanette is huge but when Jeanette returns home for Christmas her mother acts like nothing has changed By this point in the novel she is no longer the dominating woman we saw at the start she is a more softened and accepting woman who simply reaches for her CB radio whenever she feels distressed Her comfort comes in the form of the World Service her intended use for JeanettenLike Jeanettes mother Elsie is also a devout member of the church and testifies daily Unlike Jeanettes mother however Elsie is outgoing and has a history of travel behind her She represents the imaginative individual who Jeanette will eventually turn intonWhen Jeanettes own mother is being neglectful Elsie is the woman she turns to for comfort and guidance Jeanette learns many things that help her to become the character she is from Elsie that the only way to become the person she wants to be is by opening her mind to new ideasnElsie suggests that when Jeanette quits the church she may be better off finding her own way in the world rather than pursuing a religion that she doesnt agree withnUnlike Jeanettes mother Elsies power over Jeanette is not dominating or oppressing because Jeanettes lesbianism and rejection of the church are accepted by Elsie when everyone else shuns her The true power that Elsie has is the power to help people and that is what she does for Jeanette throughout nWhen Elsie dies late in the novel Jeanette is deeply saddened at the loss Elsie is her only true friend and even manages to replace her mothernJeanette towards the end of the novel is like Celie in the way that she riumphs over hardships but these are nowhere near as severe as in The Color Purple Where Celie is oppressed by men Jeanette is shunned by the church and her mother As a way of coping with her troubles Jeanette writes stories in the same way that Celie uses her letter writing as a coping mechanismnnBeing an active feminist Winterson has written many pieces about the roles of women in society and their apparent lack of power Winterson highlights this in a piece from The Guardian about Doris Lessing a feminist icon and novelist The main feel of the piece is not about Ms Lessing however it is more about the way women are still struggling for power with their male counterparts- relating more to The Color Purple than Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit :nnnnnnnnnnnnnTo conclude I feel that in terms of the portrayal of women and power Alice Walker is the most effective writer of the two Her story not only describes male dominance and the ways in which women can overcome such hardships but also how women can still be civil and forgiving after years of oppression This I feel is a feature that can be felt by every reader as a show of true power and strength whatever their race sexuality gender or even religious preference nIn Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit the general tone is much lighter than in The Color Purple and to keep the story light-hearted there are much fewer troubles to be overcome resulting in a climax which seems much less significant (in terms of women and power) than Walkers novel nOn balance Celies struggle through rape and oppression is more effectively shown than Jeanettes sexuality being frowned upon by her mother and the church Whilst homophobia is a problem that more and more people are affected by every day I feel that sexual dominance and the way women are treated is a problem that has been going on for hundreds (if not thousands) of years and will continue to touch readers for many more nBibliographynn The Guardian Newspapers August 15 2001nn Jeanette Wintersoncomnn Modern Critical Interpretations-Alice
