Moore, Olin H. "The Romanticism of Guy de Maupassant." Publications of the Modern Language Association of America (1918): 96-134.

In Moore's article, Guy de Maupassant in particular is examined as an example of a prominent naturalistic author, whose reactions to Romanticism included a disdain for fantastic plots, making of their works "merely a series of scenes" (p. 96). Moore calls de Maupassant "the purest representative" of this naturalism. The author is shown to depict opposites and have thematic repetition in his stories; the falseness of the necklace in the story in question is contrasted with another story, les ...

When World War I broke, earlier poets wrote poems celebrating the outbreak of the First World War. These poems reflected an over-optimistic, sentimental and unrealistic attitude to war that mirrored the attitude of the British people, who assumed that the war was chivalrous and heroic. Rupert Brooke's “The Soldier” is an example of such early World War I poetry, in which Brooke uses strong figurative language and symbols to romanticize and sentimentalize the horrors of war. By 1915, both the British people and poets began to realize how horrific and terrible the war really was, and poems thereafter began ...

All art is political. Whether it is a deep, poignant drama or a flighty, effervescent musical, the performing arts in particular, including theater, has a uniquely political and socially vital point of view. There is something to be said for even the most lightly entertaining fluff piece, but even those can have very strong political overtones. Theater, to me, is a vehicle for conveying themes and subtext through the vitality of a live performed work; in a good work, all elements of a production must come together perfectly to provide substance about our lives and the world around us. ...

1. Marie de France’s “Bisclavret” is far more understated in its description of the werewolf than similar imagery in modern novels. One element of modern writing is an increased reliance on imagery rather than suggestion, and while the important element of “Bisclavret” is the theme rather than description, in modern works we tend to get both – consider the case of Professor Lupin from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. The focus in “Bisclavret” is on the treachery of the wife and the knight, and the rectitude of the former baron. The narration in “The Porter’s Tale” ...

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 ...

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. The scripture that was in use was the Old Testament which at the time was known as the Hebrew Bible. People, at the time, believed in God and kept the commandments which are stipulated in the bible. But then, not everyone was a Jew. Many religions were in existence as seen in ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

In fact, research studies suggest that conducive a conducive learning environment is importance in preparing a learner for the learning process (Hue and Li, 2008).

During the pre-colonial period, the women were considered to be a minority in the Arab World. 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).
During the colonial times, the European women settlers who migrated to Algeria for example were used to promote prostitution in ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was an American writer best known for his novels and short stories that describe the so-called American "Jazz Age" of the 1920s ("F. Scott Fitzgerald" 1).
He is the author of the novels The Great Gatsby, Tender Is the Night, The Last Tycoon. He is one of the greatest US prose writers of the XX century ("F. Scott Fitzgerald" 1).
In the minds of contemporaries F. Scott Fitzgerald was and remains not only a writer, but a living legend, the embodiment of the spirit of the time. In the 1920s he became the idol of ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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

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?

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. ...

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 ...

The discriminatory practices of the male folk of the society are not new. Abuse and violence is a way of establishing the supremacy over the opposite sex. Even in the age of advancement where several feminist movements have dared to challenge the very roots of the patriarchal society, domestic abuse is one the greatest impediments for the female who are being constantly battered by the insensitivity and chauvinism of their male counterparts.

The creature turns its head attracted by the sounds of pain and fear as it rips through the veil between the living and dead. “The night of Samhain,” it thinks, “the perfect night for escape.” As the time when the veil between the living and dead is the thinnest, Samhain is the time signally the end of lightness and the beginning of darkness.

There are some figures that are such a permeating part of the collected consciousness that writing about them in a different light is a risky venture since readers have already established an opinion and preconceived archetype of the images. Figures like The Buddha, Jesus, George Washington, Hitler, and Abraham Lincoln all fit characters whom everyone who has engaged with the world or gone to school is familiar with. As such writing about them in a different way, or writing about a little known fact about the figure is risky writing business. Louis P. Masur in his article for the ...

The cover displays a rough cave like rocky texture with plenty of “caveman art”. The art implies the evolution of man from more primitive forms walking on all fours to intermediate forms with a bent back to the more evolved upright and seemingly complex modern man. The piece is intertwined by a haunting creepy theme broken up by frantic, sound interludes that tend to grow darker and darker as man’s spirit sinks lower and he nears his imminent destruction. The work basically depicts man’s journey from primitive forms to more evolved intelligent forms to the enslavement of ...

A rhetorical choice is that strategy that any writer decides to use that helps to make his or her message much more effective, comprehensible and also very compelling to read.

From these excerpts there are several rhetoric strategies that have been implemented ...

She usually looks after Tommy before he dies. “The building quivered and creaked from the weight of humanity stamping about in its bowels” (Crane II). She is usually quiet and vulnerable: “Her features were ...
