Gulliver's Travels: Gulliver And Swift's Separate Personalities
Words: 354 / Pages: 2

.... Book 1 (Lilliput) is a rich satire of the English politics of Swift's time. The small but extremely immoral Lilliputians represent the Whig party of England, whose viscious foreign policy and accusations of treason agaainst members of the Tory party Swift despised. The small size of the Lilliputians is in inverse proportion to the amount of their corruption. Similarly, the Brobdingnagians find Gulliver's culture to be too violent for the size of its people, and Gulliver's pride in describing the English is offset by his puniness. Swift characterizes the giants of Book II to be imperfect but extremely moral, possibly the ideal for how a society coul .....

Words: 704 / Pages: 3

.... do. As in the case of Spitz's long lasting and fatal battle with Buck. The description of the final fight is mesmerizing, London goes inside of both dogs' heads and gives reasons for all the actions that real dogs would do. Realism is also a major part of the novel. It is in no way padded with goodness to leave the reader with a warm sensation in his heart. At times, the way in which beatings of the dogs are described makes the reader want to close the book. Throughout the book, Buck is severely abused by humans. Upon being taken from his home to learn to be a sled dog, Buck is beaten senseless for no reason other that to learn to respect .....


Analysis Of Williams' "The Red Wheelbarrow"
Words: 517 / Pages: 2

.... we are left with nothing but some descriptions of random objects. The first two lines give us a link to the objects. It forces us to relate emotionally, almost nostalgically to the objects. Such an emotional exclamation directs and influences us to think and imagine the circumstance of the picture that has been painted in our minds with words. There is also a structural relationship between the initial statement and the rest of the poem. The first two lines are highly contrasting to the rest of the poem. The last six lines, grouped in two, consist of either an article or a preposition, an adjective, and a noun. The first two lines are the only o .....


Racism In The Invisible Man
Words: 405 / Pages: 2

.... aspect? We must look beyond the text and into the thoughts behind the words to find the positive results of racism in this novel. Some believe that through difficulty and oppression, people are truly able to find themselves. If this is, indeed, true, in the case of the Invisible Man, then through his experiences he should have been able to discover himself. Though the main character remains confused, there are certain instances based on racial incidents that allow the character, if not to have found himself, to ponder more and deeper questions about his identity. But are not such questions, even though they have not explicit answers, positive? Is .....

Words: 1271 / Pages: 5

.... his growing frustration. He cannot handle his menial job and his unsatisfying home life. He believes that the atmosphere is stifling and damaging to his creative capacities. He regards the warehouse as a prison that shackles all the basic impulses with which, he believes, men are endowed¾”Man is by instinct a lover, a hunter, a fighter” (Williams ). In the warehouse, Tom does not find any satisfaction at all¾“I’d rather somebody picked up a crowbar and battered out my brains¾than go back mornings!” (Williams )¾let alone amiable, intimate friendship or companionship. Even more stifling to his poetic creativity is his .....


Jonathan Swifts Gulliver's Travels
Words: 839 / Pages: 4

.... more rational being," (203) even though as a human he is already the most rational being there is. This is why Swift refers to Erasmus Darwins discovery of the origin of the species and the voyage of the Beagle_to show how Gulliver knows that people are at the top of the food chain. But if Lemule Gulliver is satirized, so are the Houyhnhnms, whose voices sound like the call of castrati. They walk on two legs instead of four, and seem to be much like people. As Gulliver says, "It was with the utmost astonishment that I witnessed these creatures playing the flute and dancing a Vienese waltz. To my mind, they seemed like the greatest humans ever seen in .....


The Yellow Wallpaper: Male Oppression
Words: 1129 / Pages: 5

.... see something is wrong with this house. Her husband responds to her discomfort of the house as a father would respond to a child. “John laughs at me, of course, but one expects that in a marriage.” This shows that women were not taken serious and their opinions were merely laughed at. One part of the house that could be misinterpreted in this story is the window in the nursery. In most cases, a window symbolizes a view of hope. In this story though, the window has bars on it, symbolizing imprisonment or oppression. An additional symbol of the narrator’s oppression is her husband, John. He is considered to be “a physician of high stand .....


Beloved: Sethe's Character
Words: 1616 / Pages: 6

.... selfish refusal to reenter a life of slavery? By examining the complexities of Sethe's character it can be said that she is a woman who chooses to love her children but not herself. Sethe kills her baby because, in Sethe's mind, her children are the only good and pure part of who she is and must be protected from the cruelty and the "dirtiness" of slavery(Morrison 251). In this respect, her act is that of love for her children. The selfishness of Sethe's act lies in her refusal to accept personal responsibility for her baby's death. Sethe's motivation is dichotomous in that she displays her love by mercifully sparing her daughter from a horrific life, .....
