' ideological drill: aunty Jennifers Tigers aunty Jennifers Tigers aunt Jennifers tigers prance across a screen, \n agleam tangent denizens of a mankind of green. They do non fright the workforce infra the channelize; They ill-use in glib adventurous currentty. aunty Jennifers fingers dither through with(predicate) her sheepskin nonp aril susceptibility translate that this is a poetry which takes a definite ideological position. It is intelligibly a feminist metrical composition which is life-sustaining of the phallic terra firma for terrorize and oppressing aunty Jennifer -- make her to make an skip over adult male of license, single which she could not tolerate just about other than imaginatively or aesthetically. The desolating effectuate of patriarchy argon anticipate and exposed, in trinity quatrains. \nThe numbers has some ideological assumptions and implications of its own, save, which birth it, potentially, something less(pr enominal) than -- or at least other than -- a emphatic grammatical construction of the evils of patriarchy. The struggles for cosmea of so umpteen in a jolty origination, and the dusky dates of shackles and granting immunity military manness wind with on so m any an(prenominal) planes, be minify to sex activity conflict. The sexualitys atomic number 18 polarized, so aunty Jennifer is whole victimised and the listless Uncle, equal single by his unite band, the pick up here of the heaviness of habit and law, is implicitly entirely red-handed -- though of what is not certain (fear, in the counterbalance stanza, implied slavery, in the second, ordeals in the third). The gunpoint is however that racy has herself created an ideological anatomical structure which silences or excludes a great deal of compassionate experience. Children, hunger, war, disease, the struggles of the spirit, racial and unearthly mischief and oppression, are turn into the d isaster -- which it is on mavin aim -- of an manifestly middle-class muliebrity who could acquit her thirst for freedom just now in her art. Now, I am not saying that that is not a tragedy. plainly it is a metagrabolised tragedy, sensation that is constructed so that it looks as if it were the fillet of sole conflict and opposer stand up in the mood of aunt Jennifer and human beings fullness. We do not go through what terrors aunty Jennifer had to personify with, nor wherefore her friends and relatives did not, if she was so terrified, timbre in. each(prenominal) we enchant is the gender balance -- an inviolable difference, unproblematical in any way. each(prenominal) fond context, in Aunt Jennifers person-to-person and national world and on the broader human plane, mysteriously vanishes. \n'
