The perception of Joseph contradicts with what other thinks as he says, “Poetry is like bird.” The illiterate lad decides to abstain from petty crimes and study on the blacks’ history. The game of poetry was flexible to accommodate different understanding of the context. He differs with other students who believed that the novel, Heart of Darkness sheds light on the redemption and suffering of Africans. Joseph had a deep believe that the black’s history was underrated and nothing good was observed from it. The understanding of the poetry according to him means that the visionary literary work Continue reading...

Before the coming of Jesus Christ, religion as a concept still existed. However, what is today known as Christianity did not exist then. People who lived during this era worshiped or believed images gods or spirits that resided in trees or mountains. The dominant religion was Judaism.

Story 1) As the cat rode in the car, she was full of questions- where was she going? What was this new home going to be like? Would she get the same food? Would she make friends? She meowed and meowed asking these questions, but no one seemed to answer. Finally, the car came to a stop. This was the moment all those questions would be answered. As the door opened and her crate was lifted, the cat shivered with fear. What was waiting on the other side of that door?
Immediately, her crate door was bombarded by a Continue reading...

The eland and the stuffed goose are both preyed animals that will serve as a meal. The first emphasizes the aspect of victim, with the tiger biting down on the heavy animal, satisfying its hunger. Meanwhile, the duck is forcefully fed until it is about to burst, like humans that cannot help being naturally sexual. The instinctual side of man is on display with both of these images, and so is a display of power and aggressiveness.
Female sexuality is described as being repressed, yet waiting to burst intensely. The main image relating to sexuality in the poem is Continue reading...

Using Formatting to Portray Mental Illness in The Yellow Wallpaper

The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman takes the reader through the first-hand experiences of the narrator's bed rest following the birth of a child. Gilman uses a variety of methods to convey the mental anguish the narrator is experiencing and one of these methods is the use of shorter paragraphs. By utilizing this format, the reader develops a great sense for the racing thoughts the narrator is experiencing as she is left alone in her room for an extended period of time. The fragmented thoughts provide a sense of urgency and unrest that may otherwise be more difficult Continue reading...

In the Arab Countries, Women were supposed to cover themselves completely to preserve them for their husbands only hence a peak of view of the backwardness of the society. With time, things have change; women were viewed as a source of inspiration in the leadership of many colonists hence making the Arabs resulting in the changing of their ways of lives (Ahmed 91).

It was a Saturday, and here I was, walking along what should have been, a resplendent beach, like I have been doing for the past few years. There were a few early morning walkers, some of whom I knew by face, and a few whom I knew by name. Being bred in a cosmopolitan city, I had an eye for details, and while I try and keep to myself, I just couldn’t get myself to turn and look the other way when I saw her.
The beach is a popular place, and is among the most crowded places Continue reading...

Question # 1

One of the major concepts of Confucianism is “Jen” and in Confucianism, Jen is what makes individual an individual. It is what gives self its humanity and dignity. In Confucianism, the concept of self is not an isolated one. In Confucians teaching, it is not possible to be an individual without the society and the concept of the self emerges only in the relation to others. Confucianism gives much more value to the whole society rather than individualism as it considers individuals to be a constituent of society instead of isolated objects. Confucianism propagates strong hierarchical order and persuades Continue reading...

1. I think experimental fiction is very interesting. I find absurdist fiction most compelling because I think it, in a way reflects real life. Life in a sense is absurd. There are things in the world that cannot be explained. There are many religions of people saying this, or saying that. It is hard to know what to believe, whom to believe and what is real. So absurdist fiction, while it reflects reality in absurd ways, in a way is perhaps an accurate way to represent reality—which is often absurd.
2. I also find metafiction quite compelling, since Continue reading...

Introduction

It may have been just a cluster of words printed nicely in an almost card board like glossy paper. Numbers were written all over the face of the paper, accompanied by what seems like a cluster of vertical lines, a picture of an aircraft, and your name on it. Without that piece of paper, it is impossible for one to get his way to explore the clouds. What is being described here is the boarding pass. As simple as it is, boarding pass tickets holds a lot of stories of struggle and joy. The face of the boarding pass Continue reading...

Question 1: “TV People”

Question 2: “My World of the Unknown”
In Rifaat’s story, the biggest challenge that the audience meets is the ability to deduce meaning for the morals behind using the snake (jinni) as a coach for sexual pleasure. While the woman in the story plays an innocence character, the audience cannot still ascertain how an adult with whose cognitive capabilities are not in doubt can ascent to the fantasies that accompany the snake without informing the husband how she relates with the snake. For western readers the story could explain the structure of relationships in Eastern families and what Continue reading...

Cultural diffusion and interaction is one of the conspicuous phenomenons that have characterized the world in the post-colonial era. However, the world has seemingly been inclined towards the Western culture. Salaman Rushdie is arguably one of the celebrated post-colonial writers who have managed to capture this phenomenon through his novella-“East, West”. Chekov and Zulu is one of the intriguing stories in the novella that satirically or rather, humorously demystifies how the Western culture has diffused into the Eastern world. The underlying story of how Chekov and Zulu are fascinated and affected by the Western culture in Britain exemplifies Continue reading...

Camus's "The Guest" (pp. 1580-97).
As the story ends, Daru seems to be threatened with a consequence he doesn’t deserve. Is this just? Is there any way he could have created a good outcome? Why do you think Camus chooses to end the story this way?
As it has been indicated in the post, Daru’s situation is one that portrays the diverse view through which the society perceives an individual. In the need to seek to establish a good rapport with the society, Daru lets the prisoner decide on which way to go-the escape route or the Continue reading...

In the modern world, there is a big choice of communication tools that can help to express the thoughts or influence someone’s opinion. It is possible to use photos or videos as we have the access to all technical means, but written words remain one of the most popular tool.
What could cause the sender to prefer written communication? First of all, it is a fact that writing is material and verifiable. Typically, when using written communication both sender and recipient have documentary evidence that it took place. For people that is really important as they can easily Continue reading...

Who am I? What am I? What is my name? All these questions do not matter for me. I am neither a man, nor a monster. I do not live, I survive. How did I get to it? Let me tell you my story and you will understand everything.
My story begins somewhere in the nineteenth century. I woke up tied on the table. A man in a white coat was standing over me. For the first time he was smiling, but in a moment his face became contorted with a terror. I did not understand many things that Continue reading...

1) The article was written in the first person point of view. The narrator is the character speaking for his self.
2) In the story by Edgar Allan Poe, the tension primarily lies on how the character narrated how he killed the old man and how he was unable to hide his guilt in the end. Readers always want something good to happen in a story, and leading the story into murder and lies creates tension. It is similar in the Tell-Tale Heart. The tension began when the character confessed his plan to kill the old Continue reading...

The slogan was a phrase that Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author, used in an article in the 1970s. She wrote a scholarly article that attempted to study the well-behaved Puritan women and how they got celebrated in their funerals. When people read that statement, they became more curious and gave it different meanings; while some celebrated the fading of feminism, others thought it had just started. Kay Mills, a journalist, altered the statement slightly in her work on the informal history of American women, and this caused an uproar on the subject.
The altered slogan propelled Ulrich Continue reading...

Question 1:

Pushkin provides a detailed history and analysis of the city of Saint Petersburg. He describes the city as possessing a “view of stern and grace” (44) and further describes the city as a stunning with its “stronghold guns’ thunder and smoke” (76). The city is initially described as having a stern and gracious look with “quiet winters” but the poet later describes the city as being a stronghold of gun thunders and smoke. While describing how the city will act as a route to the extended world, the poet described it as the place where “ships of all flags Continue reading...

During the medieval periods, the code of Chivalry was in effect a moral system that defined qualities that were to be idealized by the knights. In essence, this moral system was more like an honor code of the knights; it technically exemplified their royal and exceptional stance in the society. Considering that chivalry required knights to behave in a way that epitomized good morals, I am of the opinion that; chivalry lack place in the contemporary society. Throughout the essay, arguments in favor of the notion above will be presented.
In Le Morte d'Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory, Chivalry Continue reading...

PART I. Bonnie and Clyde

Bonnie Parker and Clyde Champion Barrow are probably the most romantic and famous gangsters’ couple who lived in 1930th in the USA. That historical period was a time of mafia’s and gangsters’ prosperity as economy was in depression. However, none can be born as a criminal (perpetrator).

Communication: Journal Entry

Communication- 215 is a three-hour long class where we are taught story making and writing. I really enjoy this class. Our teacher comes up with these new problem-solving, critical thinking and other exercises that make us think and decide. We’re always made to write journal entries for every chapter we cover. The long duration of the class would normally make anyone drowsy and some of the other students do try to doze off. But she makes sure that no one succeeds in catching a nap! She engages our class in active discussions, and I Continue reading...

Many successful companies practice open-book management that includes disclosing financial information to all employees. What are the potential benefits of this disclosure?

When there is some bonus or income distribution plan, workforce will better value program’s performance and see how its labor helps the company achieve these objectives. Furthermore, employees can produce own strategies or strategies Continue reading...

Happy never after: Tales of a lonely heart

I choose the title “Happy never after: Tale of a lonely heart” for this story. I found this title appropriate as the main theme of this story is broken love and the effects of the loneliness that sets in after a love relation breaks on very disturbing and bitter grounds of unfaithfulness and betrayal. I believe Neal was betrayed by the fiancée as they had lived together for a long time and where engaged to be married only for her to get pregnant with another man’s child. I believe this pain that was coursed by the sudden Continue reading...

Tennyson's poem “Ulysses” combines the Dante’s and Homer’s story of the king Ulysses or Odysseus story to create a long monologue that Ulysses gives detailing his boredom at being in Ithaca, and his desire to return to the adventurous life he lived before. Many critics declare that Tennyson's poem reflects his personal desire to overcome the death of his best friend, Hallam. In fact, Tennyson wanted to keep on living his life with all the negative and positive changes that mirrored the life of Ulysses. Ideally, “Ulysses” is a dramatic monologue that includes the persona’s critical Continue reading...

a. What are your personal reactions to this movie? Be descriptive.
“The Princess Bride” is a charming, funny Gothic film filled with colorful characters. The most captivating part of the movie is the sense of sincerity with which Director Reiner tells the story. The princess’ enchanted appearance also adds more interesting features to the film. “Princess Bride” is a postmodern fairy tale movie that affirms and challenges the principles of a genre that may be devoid of flexibility to provide support to the movie. The character of Patinkin is a joy to witness in this film because Continue reading...

The vision of the author here is magnificent. He has admittedly created the atmosphere where machines are developing their own conscience, and are no longer under the control of men. The comparison of the lights of the machine with dog’s red eyes in the photographs is vital and dark. The mankind has no other choice but to pray and wish that the machines turn out to be forgiving. The purpose of the creation of these machines is unknown as the creator is long gone. Now, the rest of them have nothing but the fear and absolutely panic in Continue reading...

In my reading of Niedecker’s Poems, her use of sounds manifests largely in almost all parts of her literary work. In this regard, she makes of use of sound devices such as repetition, assonance, alliteration, consonance, rhyme, Onomatopoeia and Idiophones. It is significant to note that, it is due to the effect of these devices that my reading is enhanced as follows;
Niedecker’s poems are rich in repetition. More than often, I find that she constantly repeats some statements or special words. In essence, the repetition gives the text a lyrical lilt. As a result, I find Continue reading...

The Beautiful Thing
Object, that’s what It is
Dismembered, molded – plastic
Beautifuluntil It isn’t
The existence of a stain is Its sin
It is a docile body
But It made itself ideal
Choice however
Oh how funny! Oh the irony!
Do you know the story?
It thinks it made the decision!
Far from the truth
Delusional object, that thing is
The thing is cold to the touch
As sinister as the carefully painted lips
But who painted them?
Is it not you?
Hands that touch the thing
Marks the surface
Bragging Continue reading...

Introduction

Besides being a way of thinking, human rights are also a set of political and legal doctrines. These doctrines limit the government power to shape citizens expectations. As such, they benefit ascribe behaviors and proscribe others. The structure of human rights reflects meticulous historical milieu out of which they have evolved and their contours have stretched and changed with the erratic landscape of global society. The general awareness of human rights was gradually formed on the existence of rights that are inherent in all human beings. These rights pre-exist and are superior to the State and all political affiliations. Continue reading...

In the second month of autumn in 1937 a short story by John Steinbeck ‘Chrysanthemums’ was published in Harper’s Magazine. It was not serene and stable times but on the contrary, the elections of the President were just held and Franklin D. Roosevelt gained his position of the Head of the country for the second time.

Probably one of the finest science fiction novels ever written, The Hunger Games is definitely a feather of the cap of American writer’s Suzanne Collins. Katniss Everdeen is the main character in the novel and she has an authority in the metropolis of The Capitol where there is political influence and almost completes control of the population.
There is hubris in the sense of the gladiator battle to the death that is created by the battle on television, a highly original plot which caused quite a stir and controversy at the time. The novel is a sure fire Continue reading...
