Isolation In The Genie's Case

Isolation is a feeling one gets when you feel like you are not wanted by society also, misunderstood by the people around you. Someone going through depression and his cries have been ignored. The phrase “I was much further out than you thought” (3). Far out in the water and the distance felt from other people mentally that they did not notice. The fact that they can misinterpret a cry for help as something mistaken for friendly waving. They did not understand of the person and how isolated the person was.

Isolation tends to link closely in both books to another way that immorality is represented within them, through the physical differences in the appearances between the ‘moral’ characters and the ‘immoral’ ones. In Stevenson’s novella this difference is particularly stressed. Jekyll is much bigger than Hyde, which is seen prominently when Hyde's small body is found in the much larger clothes of Dr Jekyll at the end of the book, and this can be taken two ways. First is that Jekyll (being the scientist and creator of Hyde), is more dominant with his morality and conformity than the immoral side to his personality, and therefore Stevenson is representing his control over Hyde with the fact that he is physically larger than his much smaller and less important other half. The other way of interpreting it, which is probably a more

Images of confinement and escape in “The Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin. Is shown all throughout the story, Mrs. Mallard felt trapped she did not seem happy at all. The feeling of freedom seemed to take over Mrs. Mallard body. Her exhaustion seems to confine her so when Mrs. Mallard heard the news about her husband. All she could think of is being alone and confining herself in a room where she can express how she truly feels. Mrs. Mallard felt tied down and exhausted from being trapped. Instead of her

* The girl was given the name Genie to protect her identity and privacy. "The case name is Genie. This is not the person's real name, but when we think about what a genie is, a genie is a creature that comes out of a bottle or whatever, but emerges into human society past childhood. We assume that it really isn't a creature that had a human childhood,” explained Susan Curtiss in a documentary called Secrets of the Wild Child (1997).

For example, Genie Wiley, whom is the child who was locked up and tied to a toileting chair in a room on her own for 13 years as her father believed she had a disability. This act of isolation has had a detrimental effect on her development. When Genie was found she was unable to walk properly, was unable to eat solid food and could not talk, this was believed to be because indications showed

Isolation has a profound effect on the human psyche, it can motivate a man or drive him mad. Within The Painted Door and The Black Cat, isolation and its effects are present and those effects impact the characters actions. The Black Cat and The Painted Door are comparable in their showcase of humanities perverse capabilities, by using the gothic elements these capabilities are shown to lead to their downfall.

I engulf the feeble victim in seemingly unescapable loneliness, overtaking the joys of their heart and ensnaring them in a pit of desolate solitude. The sense of bleakness will overcome the senses and suck out all the bliss they hold close. Because it appears most of humanity rely on one another for comfort and joy, the unavoidable reality of being unaccompanied is enough to drive a man mad. I describe the sense of separation that strikes a soul, sucking out every ounce of remembrance and comfort the past attempts to bring. Yesterday will never return, just as tomorrow always comes; it’s inevitable. Once I reach you, it’s a struggle to get rid of this parasite that I am, called isolation. There comes a point where the victim will decide

Sukarno, first president of Indonesia, in office from 1945 to 1967, conveys, “The worst cruelty that can be inflicted on a human being is isolation”. In other words, Sukarno believes that seclusion is the greatest punishment an individual can receive. Often, people are affected by isolation on the mental and emotional levels. Individuals begin to perceive situations differently and are influenced to make shameful choices. For example, in Sinclair Ross’s short story, “The Painted Door,” the main character, Ann, lives her life in isolation from most of society. Ann is a young and caring woman living on a farm with her husband, John. They are facing troubles in their marriage, since their ideals of a fulfilling life differ from one another. Her husband is set to travel seventeen miles to assist his aging father on the farm. Ann is against John’s voyage because the storm brewing risks his safety and would leave her alone to care for the animals. However, John is able to convince her by inviting a friend to come over for dinner and promising her that he will return at supper to join them; the circumstance fuels a night of lonesome emotions that propels her to commit a remorseful decision. One might argue that the author uses the narrative archetype of The Fallen Woman, irony, and symbolism, to suggest, that isolation leads an individual to question her values and commit regrettable decisions.

The author Sinclair Ross is implying that the natural landscape and the environment in “The Painted Door” serve as a metaphor for Ann’s sense of isolation. In the beginning of the story, Ann mentions that “There was a double wheel around the moon” which leads Ann to believe that they “could expect a storm”. Ann’s uneasiness for the storm to come foreshadows the storm that would separate Ann and John, leaving Ann all alone with nothing but her thoughts until Steven arrives. Ann later observes the “distant farmsteads” which she believes serve “to intensify a sense of isolation” in Ann before John leaves. This is a direct metaphor on John and Ann’s relationship, John is being very “distant” in their relationship and as a result Ann feels a “sense of isolation” in their relationship and that she wanted “something of John” and “not pretty clothes, when she would be too old to wear them”.

Many years into the future, aliens are attacking planet Earth. The leaders of the world are tasked with finding the one who can save humanity and the person they chose is a six-year-old boy. This is the situation in Ender’s Game, a 1977 science fiction novel in which author, Orson Scott Card, points out multiple problems in today’s society. The two most prominent themes in Ender’s Game is “war as a game” and the “control of information” where isolation is thought of a the key.

In Life-Span Development the class had the ability to observe the infant, Riley, and her parents, Erin and Robin. The class had the ability to discover to talk to real parents and ask the questions that most students are too shy to ask. The class was also able to observe how Riley acted in front of forty people. This experienced allowed people to understand the true development of infant whether it be cognitive, physical or social

Genie, the second case of wild child was found in a room tied to a potty chair. Genie was kept in a room locked away because her father thought she was retarded at birth until the age of 13, when she was rescued by a social worker. She was locked away from normal civilization and any type of socialization, and she was beaten for making noises. Genie was an infant trapped in a 13 year old body, because she could only make infant like sounds and no words or sentences. Genie's brain waves were adnormal, but doctors believed that she could learn. They began teaching and trying to develop her brain through forming relationships. Genie begin to speak and say words; but they were difficult to understand. Genie progress gave doctors hope that she

Genie is a wild child who found in LA on 1970, she is a very extreme case of neglected the caretaking from adult. Her father believed she is retarder She spent her first thirteen years on tiding at the potty chair and still wearing diaper, she had never see, listen, being taught of anything in her life. For the past many years she had been isolation and lack of adult care make her the way she is right now.

Genie’s case is heartbreaking. Not only did she suffer unimaginable traumas during the first 12 years of her life, but her case resulted in a tug-of-war from researchers who wanted to help her, yet wanted to further their own agenda. It was particularly sad to hear that she had returned to live with her mother at age 18, and then entered the foster care system when her mother realized that she was ill equipped to care for her daughter. She was subjected to further trauma and abuse,

Isolation leads to anger, hatred, and violence in The Lightning Thief. In the beginning, we learn that our narrator, Percy, is a lonely dude. He's often kicked out of schools because he's not "normal." Trouble seems to find him wherever he goes, and he has two learning disabilities (dyslexia and attention deficit disorder), making him truly feel like an outsider. Even when he has discovered that he has special powers and when he has found a place full of kids just like him, our narrator is still isolated and must stay in a cabin all by himself (thanks to his dad). When Percy feels alone in the world, he can be cold and angry. When he feels as though he has a place in the world, our he is full of courage and possibilities.
