Analysis Of George Saunders ' Language

the setting and society by using figurative language, such as symbolism and imagery. Using characterization, and imagery, Bradbury shows the reader how society has lost its humanity and how it goes hand in hand with the setting and characters of the short story. Society in 2053 has become dependent on technology, brainwashed by television and expected not to think differently, showing that society has lost it's grasp on humanity and human nature. The atmosphere established by Bradbury shows that the city is dark, paralleling to the surroundings of a graveyard. Mr. Mead's world is shown as blank, and his character can be viewed as divergent due to him

The context of Craig Silvey’s Jasper Jones influences different aspects such as language, values and attitudes within the text by using techniques such as figurative language, metaphors, grammatical aspects and structuring, with many more. This creates context for the story and pushes along the true intentions that Silvey wished to portray helping readers understand the story better.

A poet hopes that people would appreciate their poem in a way that it is not mistreating the work’s value. In the poem “Introduction to poetry” Billy Collins describes his desires on how students should connect with poems. Collins states that students try to force out meanings out of poems instead of diving in to understand its true nature. The author creates a sensitive yet aggressive tone to convey two ways of poetry appreciation through his use of diction, personification and metaphor.

In the essay “A Language All Their Own,” Nathan Salha (2011) claimed that trademarks should be used “only to protect intellectual invention and the reputations of associated companies,” and Salha wrote that trademarked slogans only exist to regulate the usage of creative slogans among businesses and that they do not limit the freedom of speech (p. 476). Furthermore, Salha (2011) argued that trademarked slogans protect businesses and promote competition by allowing each business to customize its advertisements and distinguish its product from the products of its competitors with clever slogans (p. 477). Moreover, Salha (2011) asserted that trademarked slogans protect consumers by allowing consumers to distinguish high-quality products, which

Someone once said; “When we acknowledge the value in every human life and witness such, we thrive and succeed and protect one another”. The value in life is a prospect that should not be suppressed, even in times of hardship. Conveying this message through literary elements can be tough at times, consequently leaving the message unclear. Neal Shusterman’s “Unwind” demonstrates the opposite and conveys the theme thoroughly, leaving no room for uncertainty. His characters, one of the most important elements of an amazing story, all adapt realistically to a situation where the safety of their life comes first. Additionally, the conflict in “Unwind” is a central point of interest and engages the reader in the motives behind the battle faced by the characters. Finally, the narrative perspective further expresses a sense of meaningfulness when dealing with the topic of life significance. Evidently, Shusterman emphasizes the worth in human life through his character development, the conflicts and the theme.

Joan Didion uses rhetorical words in “Morality,” to emphasize her claim as to why she is suspicion of the definition of morality. Throughout, “Morality,” Didion defines and provides varies arguments as to why she is skeptical towards moral principles. Didion starts her essay by describing her location to present an emotional appeal to her particular setting. “As it happens I am in Death Valley, in a room at the Enterprise Motel and Trailer Park, and it is July, and it is hot (106, para 1).” The significance of describing the setting helps the reader become aware of the authors hidden meanings around the individual location, time, and weather. The tone of the setting described by Didion evokes emotions of isolation, despair, and loneliness.

The characteristic of slow work repeats in the two types of stories told by Fr. Boyle. The one that grabs the readers’ attention more describes the lives of people in detail and with resolution. Whether the youth he met ends up going to a jail or finds a job and a home in Homeboy Industries, we know to an extent what their stories are. We can understand and imagine the lives of the youth from childhood, the problems they faced, the way they went about handling them, and what Fr. Boyle thought and did during those times. The other type consists of brief mentions of the people Fr. Boyle ran into. He can only tell us what happened and what he hoped at the time, but we are left without fuller stories of the people. These unsatisfying accounts, however, are proof of the author’s intention for writing this book. We are not supposed to read about the lives and, really, the challenging situations of the youth and attempt to find solutions. Especially as a stereotypical student studying at Georgetown University, I tend to think I need to fix the problem and make the world a better place. But the purpose of the book is really to teach me to have compassion. So, the readers can notice from the two types of stories Fr. Boyle

Ross Gay’s book Against Which, portrays his poetry to readers allowing them to gain understanding of the cruel world that one lives in. Moreover, the unusual brutalities that people are inevitable confronted with in life. The common denominators within Gay’s poems such as violence, love, fear, and loss allows the reader to visualize characters’ transformation within his poems. In a world of calamity, Gay has created poems that portray the corporal conforming to gender and sex but also human development. Using a reader-response criticism lens, I will be demonstrating my interpretation of Ross Gay’s poems and the meaning that I believe to be a common interpretation of his work. Within, Gay’s poems, “It Starts at Birth” and Angels Out of Reach” one is able to see a pattern of human transformation. By experiencing pain, love, loss, fear, and wisdom one is able to see Gay’s characters evolve through the narrators and readers gaze. In doing so, one is able to reflect on Gay’s poems and gain wisdom themselves.

some ethos to emphasize the amount of hope he feels for sinners to converge to Christianity,

The novel Mark Haddon has written contains a lot of meaningful ideas and has successfully written it in a way that is skilful and provides a variety of appropriate language and distinctive qualities that include diagrams, structure of the novel and narration. In doing that, it allows the audience to provoke thought and challenges them with profound views about the deep and meaningful ideas that are within the novel. The audience is introduced to different concepts such as Christopher’s struggles with the acceptance of truth, values of family relationships, growing up, and social interaction which are all evident in the novel and shown through Haddon’s use of different language and conventions.

The Haymarket bombing was directly caused by strife between the working class and employers. August Spies was one of the anarchists who called the meeting. In a pamphlet he disseminated around chicago to gather labor advocates, he wrote inflammatory statements such as “Your masters sent out their bloodhounds—the police—they killed six of your brothers at McCormick's this afternoon. They killed the poor wretches, because they, like you, had courage to disobey the supreme will of your bosses.” (Spies) This rhetoric shows how the anarchist movement was in direct response to perceived tyranny on the part of employers and the backlash towards this perceived tyranny was what drove the movement. Furthermore, Spies proclaims in the pamphlet “To arms,

Suburban life and unachieved aspirations can often lead to deep feelings of isolation and forsakenness. When used alongside the affliction of motherhood, they begin to contradict the stereotyped image of both mothers in society and the pain of simple life making it understandable to most. Through her painstakingly beautiful sonnet ‘Suburban Sonnet’ Gwen Harwood analyses the idea that domestic duties, as well as family commitments, can often lead to desolation by highlighting the outcomes of unfulfilled dreams. Through these ideas of a broken dream and a fragile mother, Harwood successfully scrutinises the human experience.

In the essay I am going to compare and contrast the way in which different attitudes to war are presented in the poems ‘Dulce et Decorum est’. And ‘Vitai Lampada’. Both poem are a bout war but they are wrote in completely different ways.

A majority of us squander our time fantasizing about a faultless society, a place where sorrow has not meaning but is replaced with harmony, compassion, and riches. Essentially, we want a place where dreams come true. On the contrary, how often do we reflect on the worst? A place where sorrow is the only meaning and harmony, compassion and riches have no existence. Susceptibility, combat and abhorrence- the contemplation of our future. Glimpses of these are shown through demoralizing literature, where the dire stuff is an extrapolation of our world.

In the poems “The Wanderer” and “The Dream of the Rood,” anonymous authors give way to the idea that an Almighty God will solve every problem a person has by doing two things: 1) drawing upon the memories of a warrior who has lost everything near and dear to him due to war, and 2) entering the dream of a man who has been exiled and isolated. Each piece takes its reader through the trials and tribulations that one may not relate to in this era, yet the reader is still there alongside the character wanting them to find peace with their world and themselves. Initially, it is believed that the characters will overcome their hardships and achieve the happiness they seek. However, as the reader delves deeper into the character’s story, there is an overwhelming sense of incompleteness. What actually happens at the end of each piece is not written in stone - telling us the story is not whole - nor has a conclusion been reached. The intrapersonal thoughts being shared with the reader reveal the obstacles that keep an overall wholeness from occurring.
