He doesn’t feel the need to interact with others. This is reinforced by the line,“But they lived in such a complicated world of already defined alliances and shifting feuds that Krebs did not feel the energy or the courage to break into it. He liked to look at them though.” Bowker, while able to interact with others, tends to live inside of his daydreams and his own mind instead of actualizing his ideas, such as talking to his father about what happened or stopping to speak to his old classmate Sally Gustafson. They both also have internalized a lot of their trauma.

“But that’s one thing Ah likes about Spunk Banks—he ain’t skeered of nothin‘ on God’s green footstool—nothin’! He rides that log down at saw-mill jus‘ like he struts ’round wid another man’s wife—jus‘ don’t give a kitty. When Tes’ Miller got cut to giblets on that circle-saw, Spunk steps right up and starts ridin'. The rest of us was skeered to go near it.”had accidently cut himself and from there no one would dare be near it, on the other hand spunk did ().

First, Zora Neale Hurston’s “Spunk” offers this aforementioned complex message regarding the life of African Americans. In “Spunk,” a man named Joe confronts a “monster” of a man named Spunk for stealing his wife. Unfortunately, Joe is shot and killed by Spunk after trying to stab him from behind, and Spunk quickly claims his prize by marrying Joe’s wife. However, shortly after Joe’s death, a black bob-cat starts prowling around Spunk’s house and the people of the community swear it’s Joe’s spirit. Furthermore, at the very end of the story, Spunk dies as well after falling into a saw—and he claims Joe’s spirit pushed him. Undoubtedly, the whole of the story can be interpreted as an individual (Joe) standing up to their oppressor (Spunk), which

While he is thousands of miles away from home, Elder Jacob Hansen receives an opportunity once a week to write home to his family and friends. To share his experiences with others while he is away, this missionary uses a wide variety of rhetorical elements to express his purpose to the audience.

2. Reflect on the information presented in this week’s lesson and provide an insightful response to each question writing no more than two paragraphs.

Preacher Jonathan Edwards, in his sermon, “Sinners in the hands of an Angry God,” frightens the audience with vivid depictions of Hell and God’s wrath. Through the use of polysyndeton, asyndeton, and constant repetition, Edwards persuades the sinners in his congregation to turn towards God.

My thoughts are interrupted by Jacob. “Ding dong, the Spinks is dead. Which old Spinks? The-” he begins, singing. Annoyed with his poor Wizard of Oz parody, I cut him off. “Hey Jacob? If you don’t knock off the tunes, I’ll knock off your head.” A few snickers follow, but I don’t care much. Working my hardest to look as my usual self, I secretly think about how worried I actually am. Although his jokes are dumb, and he can talk way too much, Spinks did teach me several things. One of those things was morals. And that not everyone has the same ones. But right now, mine were telling me Spinks is kind of important and we should put some focus on the situation of his disappearance. What if he was dead, though? How could he have possibly survived those treacherous waters longer than what we did? Surely he would have gotten sick or possibly got injured as his body broke the surface of the

‘Nothing.’ ‘Well, hey,’ the intercom said, ‘I’m sure as fuck not going anywhere…. Go ahead, try me’” (O’Brien 146). Bowker’s conversation with the intercom represents both his inability to make real people listen to him and his resemblance to the intercom as he too is not going anywhere, but instead traveling in circles.

Spunk lives in a town where everyone knows him. He is a man who's size matched his self- confidence, his bravery, and the guy that had not one problem getting women, not even Joe's wife, Lena. The guys in the store constantly talk about how brave
