Catch-22 & One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest Black Humor; A Satirical View Of The Institution
Words: 2609 / Pages: 10

.... Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest have been classified as black humor. Black humor is defined as being a form of satire using situations that are at first humorous but are actually very disturbing. The way in which these situations take on such a drastic change in meaning results in a type of emotional experience for the reader. At first, the reader is entertained, but then they realize the seriousness of the situation, and the reader realizes that the joke is on them. The author knew that they would laugh, and the author knew that the reader would be disgusted with themselves because of it. Consequently, the very nature of this process and the sens .....

Words: 456 / Pages: 2

.... that he faced since his youth. As the priest talks to Stephen, Stephen remembers details of his own sins: a delicate and sinful perfume....the brittle texture of a womans stocking. He also remembers how his masters at Clongowes and Belvedere taught him christian doctrine and urged him to lead a good life and...led him back to grace once he fell short of Gods glory. Stephens first calling, to become a priest, has appeal, but his epiphany lets him know that his true calling, instead, deals with finally knowing the solitude that he always faced. Stephen considers the many aspects of his priestly vocation: great power, sinless innocence, and th .....


The Use Of Symbols In Steinbec
Words: 718 / Pages: 3

.... busband causes her to turn to her “chrysanthemums,” of which she is very proud. Her husband’s remark, “I wish you’d work out in the orchard and raise some apples that big” (Page 207), shows how little his interest he has for her chrysanthemums/herself. As shown here, Elisa does not feel appreciated by her husband and so she takes care of her chrysanthemums, symbols of how beautiful she really is. Early in the story, Steinbeck uses little symbolic phrases to let the reader know that the chrysanthemums are an extension of Elisa. Her gardening area could be described as a “cage” to protect herself fr .....


Zinn's A People's History Of The United States: The Oppressed
Words: 2109 / Pages: 8

.... counterparts, the importation of slaves into America and their unspeakable travel conditions and treatment, the callous buildup of the agricultural economy around these slaves, the discontented colonists whose plight was ignored by the ruling bourgeoisie, and most importantly, the rising class and racial struggles in America that Zinn correctly credits as being the root of many of the problems that we as a nation have today. It is refreshing to see a book that spends space based proportionately around the people that lived this history. When Columbus arrived on the Island of Haiti, there were 39 men on board his ships compared to the 250,00 .....


Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde
Words: 809 / Pages: 3

.... He just did it out of spite and evil. He represents all the evil in the world. The reaction of others to him is one of horror because while looking at him, others feel a desire to strike out at him and kill him. His physical appearance brings out the worst evil in other people. Since Hyde represents evil, he is symbolically represented as being much smaller than Dr. Jekyll. I believe Dr. Jekyll created Hyde because he had a theory that man has a good side and a bad side. While investigating this, he developed a potion that could release the evil in a person in the form of a totally different person. Then this person could commit any evil act it .....

Annotations From The Narrative
Words: 1628 / Pages: 6

.... opinion, I know nothing; the means of knowing was withheld from me. [Ch. 1, p. 40.] It was rumored that Captain Anthony was Frederick’s father. Clues point to this by the kindness of Captain Anthony’s daughter to Frederick or the beatings and rape of Frederick’s aunt. In any case, there was no mention of it, especially to Frederick. He was not allowed to have this kind of knowledge. His master feared that if Frederick knew of his background, he would be deemed useless as a slave. Knowledge was a thing valued by slaves and feared by their masters. To those songs I trace my first glimmering conception of the dehumanizing character of slavery. [Ch .....


Slaughter House Five: Time Travel
Words: 653 / Pages: 3

.... a dream sequence. I believe that Billy is dreaming and that when he comes across a disturbing memory he leaps into another time period, another dream. By leaping through time you stay out of reality. It's like being in another world without actually being there. This is the best and easiest way to get away from in all. Billy's seems to have many unpleasant memories and each time one surfaces he goes back or forward in time. If someone died, or something didn't go the way it should have, he leaped. When the reader finally begins to understand what's going on and where he is at a particular time, Vonnegut changes the time period. . Why does Billy .....
