Ender's Game Identity Analysis

Ender is being worked hard every day, battle after battle with almost no rest. However he refuses to give up even if it's the easy way out. “'You can’t grind me down, Mazer.' 'Oh, can’t I?' 'Because I’m stronger than you'” (Card, ch. 14). By working hard not only does he improve, he improves all his subordinates as well. Ender could easily just give up and go home, but this matters to him so he never gives up and never slowed down even when it was starting to hurt him. He pushes himself and his subordinates to the max to make himself and them their very best. If people are persistent they will be able to reach their goals whether or not they are especially talented, persistence is a very important attribute if someone wants to reach their

Ender has a lot to think about towards the end of the book. He had became a captain earlier then a lot of the other captains. Ender was a smart kid and his brother Peter was jealous of him because he got accepted to battle school. Ender also had a sister that was sweet and he loved her. Ender is kinda like both Peter and Valentine they kinda are the same in a way. Ender He killed a lot of people but he isn’t anything like peter. He also have a good heart but he’s also isn’t like valentine. He’s kinda mixed with both of them because he is violent but has a great heart.

At this point, Ender starts seeing another side to things. Even though Ender realizes and admits to himself that he is being manipulated and tricked, he still continues onward.

Ender’s game by Orson Scott Card is a science fiction novel that takes place in the future and involves a kid named Ender, the protagonist of the story. He is sent to battle school to defeat the buggers (the enemies) with many other kids who are put through lots of challenges. The government has picked Ender who is 6 years old and is a third child, his older siblings were not selected by the government because his sister, Valentine, is too kind and compassionate while his older brother,Peter, is ruthless and hot-tempered. Ender is both a monster and a hero because he’s half Peter and half Valentine.

In this chapter it is it is interesting that Ender is grateful to Peter for teaching him to cry silently. Peter has made Ender into the type of person who can handle a threat and thats all I think he has done to help him . Ender has a talent to be independent which helps him during the games. Ender shows how he can use his intelligence to fight back. This shows how ender is very mature Ender's strategy destroys Bernard's gang, and makes it so that he makes friends(makes friends with shen) without violence (P, CON)

A huge part of the theme of Ender's Game is saying that life is just a game. This is proved by the concept that Ender has to succeed through different 'levels' of life in order to achieve what the battle school has set out for him-killing the buggers. This is proved by the quote,”-Because most boys in this school think the game is important for itself, but it isn't. Its only important, because it helps them find kids who might grow up to be real commanders.” This is the real point of the book in which Ender fully realizes that The Battle School is really just a game. The symbols of this main idea is the armies, friends, enemies, and leaders that Ender comes in contact with in the Battle School. All of the friends, enemies, armies, and leaders that Ender meet are all part of Ender

At the beginning of the story, Ender hated Peter for bullying him and his sister Valentine. His hate for Peter by the end of the book, however, seems to have changed, “Back and forth across the ansible Ender and Peter spoke, with Peter pouring out the stories of his days and years, his crimes and his kindnesses. And when he died, Ender wrote a second volume, again signed by the Speaker of the Dead” (Card 323). Moreover, Ender also chose to forgive the Buggers. Even though they were enemies, Ender tried to make peace, “And always Ender carried with him a dry white cocoon, looking for the world where the hive-queen could awaken and thrive in peace. He looked a long time” (Card 324). Ender worked to repay the Buggers since he had destroyed their entire species. He was able to forgive the buggers for attacking Earth and kept the Bugger’s civilization going, and was also able to forgive Peter for treating him and Valentine so

Ender has been through many ups and downs and in this story; Ender descends into darkness mostly figuratively. For example, when Ender defeated the Formics without even knowing, he had a meltdown. “Ender grabbed Mazer’s uniform and hung onto it, pulling him down so they were face to face. ‘I didn’t want to kill them all. I didn’t want to kill anybody! I’m not a killer! You didn’t want me, you bastards, you wanted Peter, but you made me do it, you tricked me into it!’ He was crying. He was out of control” (298). This exemplifies how much this situation had constrained Ender, making it the hardest and most downfall moment of his life. In the quote it also mentioned Peter, the person he despises the most. Ender does not like the fact that the I.F.

Throughout Ender’s Game, Ender is isolated, kept apart from other children that could be friends. Ender is not the only one separated in the book though as there is Bean, Graff and Mazer Rackham. I am, writing this essay on how Isolation changed the people in Enders games behaviour and how it is the central theme of the book. The first paragraph will be on Ender's isolation, the next article will be on beans isolation, and the last one will be on Graff and Mazer. I will provide a quote then explain on each paragraph.

Why is Peter in this book? Peter sure looks crazy at the beginning of the book, but by the end of it, he and Ender have made some sort of peace. Has Peter changed over the years? Or do you think that Peter’s not really so bad at the beginning of the book? We never get to hear his own thoughts, so could it be possible that Peter is just a typical bullying big brother and not the psychopath that Ender and Val think he is?

He believes Ender is naive compared to him. This quote from the book talks about how even the teachers are manipulators and liars, Ender realizes this and shuts himself out to everyone but his closest friends and Valentine. Finally, Ender

In the early pages of Ender's Game, Peter was on top of Ender, while playing a game of Buggers and Astronauts. Peter loses his cool nearly killing Ender. “Ender could not speak; the breath was being forced from his lungs. Peter might mean it.” (12) Peters hatred for Ender goes out of control as Peter nearly suffocates his own brother. In

Another thing about Ender is he’s a commander of his own army after he was professionally trained. Ender was also sent to Eros which is a place Ender absolutely hated, when he arrived there he also met Mazer Rackham who was also known as Ender’s rival. Ender also gets bullied by his older brother Peter, Bonzo, Stilson, and Mick. Ender even had to fight during the bugger war with his army.

Ender is constantly thinks about turning out like Peter and he does not want to fall into Peter’s evil footsteps as he is heartless. There is no part of him that desires control, and when he has it, he wishes only to avoid the abuses that he sees others commit. But Ender learns that in life we are sometimes forced to play games that we would rather not play, and that sometimes winning must be second to nothing else. Still, he manages to retain his humanity and his compassion wins out in the end, as he sets out to repay his debt to the buggers. The government plays all sorts of schemes like manipulation to acquire success. The government manipulates Valentine, the students of the battle school and especially Ender (SparkNotes). The narrator says, “He toyed with the idea of trying to be like the other boys.” (Card 121). Most of Ender’s identity problems come from his worry that he’s a bully and a killer, like Peter.

In the book Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, it starts with ender in school and being made fun of. After he beats up a bully, he goes home to deal with his brother Peter who also bullies him because Ender is a better specimen than Peter was. But what no one expected was that a representative from the military came to invite Ender to Battle School up in space. Ender accepted and went to live up in Battle School for years to come. At first, Ender was hated for being such a talented student at the age of six but was soon respected after he was able to beat all the other armies with just a bunch of little kids. Ender became the best soldier at Battle School and was moved up to Command School where he would learn to command
