Jules Winnfield In Pulp Fiction

Elie Wiesel's Night and Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner both portray power in the conflicts of the story, but with that power comes power that is abused. This exploits the innocent and makes the victims incapable of getting back to their everyday principles. The worst tragedies in the world seem to happen because of the wrong use of power. Elie’s Holocaust experience and Amir’s grief have similarities because the power that was portrayed was also abused.

All these characters had different personalities and each character was lovable in their own way.

I have made a few connections with some of the characters that have been introduced in the book so far. I have a connection to real life with Luma who is a lady who does whatever she can to help others. I also try to do this. I have this connection because my dad has the exact personality of Luma and I like to take after my dad. Luma is currently the coach of a refugee soccer team.

In a developing society where a variety people come together, different customs and practices, as well as diseases, are exchanged. One example of an outbreak of a disease is the

Comic books have been around since the early 1930’s and has since become a huge cultural impact, bringing young and old audiences all sorts of great stories, and imaginative concepts. But ever since The Dark Knight Returns made it’s way onto the pages and into people’s homes, the comic book scene has never quite been the same, with stories getting darker, and more bold, featuring grotesque moments, and more intense storylines. Then the 70s came around and everybody was talking about mental illnesses and whether or not it’s real, and a little old company called Marvel comics capitalized on this, with a brand new character. First appearing in WereWolf by Night #32 in August of 1975, Moon Knight was introduced as a former boxer, turned globetrotting

When I read, I begin to relate to certain characters. I usually don’t realize it but, once I think about it, I realize that there are many similarities between myself and a character. When I thought about the characters we have read about, I realized that I relate the most to the narrator from “The Scarlet Ibis”. He is determined and wants the best for Doodle. Doodle’s brother is determined.

mind of a reader the character they relate with most is what makes the story interesting to read. We both stand up for what is right, we both have a calm temper until someone tries to infringe on our values, finally we both believe that what the right thing to do isn't always what should be done.

I connected the most with the character E.K Hornbeck. He was a supporting character in the book "Inherit the Wind" by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee. Hornbeck and I have similar personalities and preferences. E.K. Hornbeck is mainly known as a city dweller that is a columnist for the Baltimore Herald. When he enters the town of Hillsboro he makes a strong first impression that he strongly dislikes the town along with the towns people, he sneers politely at everything.

during this time but what they don’t know is that there is a purpose to everything that has

Throughout the book I felt connected to one character, that character was George. George and I share similar qualities and our lifestyles can relate. One major characteristic I found in George is his ability

In a response to the polio outbreak of 1916, Dr. Haven Emerson, the Health Commissioner for New York City, stated: “we have learned little that is new about the disease, but much that is old about ourselves.” The meaning of this has to do with the ideology that no matter the era, people have a common response to the outbreak of contagious disease. Human nature supplies us as humans with a common reaction to dealing with disease, and it is one that can be seen during the Black Death, polio epidemics, and ebola epidemics, as well as many other epidemics. These responses can be both positive and negative, and often have to do with containment of the disease, preventative measures - which may or may not be effective; and scapegoating. Although there may be individualized responses for each of these diseases, the way in which the health-care officers and the public handle the outbreak of disease generally follows the same pattern overall.

When we see fictional characters, right away we think of the way they look or if they have something a little unreal about them. We are quick to judge those things and assume that these characters are nothing like us and completely make-believe. Yet If we were to really get to know a character we would see that in some way they are based off traits of real-life people. I think there are many reasons as to why people connect with fictional characters, one being that they remind us of ourselves. Situations we have been in, things we like about ourselves, things we don't like and others around us. The three fictional characters that most represent my personality are Jessie from Toy Story for her friendliness, Snow White from Snow White for her sincerity, and Sam Puckett from iCarly for her sarcasm and humor.

Since the beginning, humanity has overcome diseases that could potentially wipe out the human race. From earliest forms diseases such as measles to modern day pandemics such as AIDS, mankind has survived throughout history. Though diseases have plagued society it was only after the outbreak of the HIV virus in 1981 that brought to attention the dangers of incurable diseases. Before this time, with World War I and II, and the Cold War, public fear was based on the potential chance of a nuclear destruction of the planet. Since the outbreak of the HIV in 1981, public anxiety has been displaced from nuclear winter to that of microbial plagues. The enemy was now no longer a visible foe but that of an unknown contagion with no knowable cure. Recently in 2009, with the outbreak of the Swine Flu (H1N1) Virus public alert of the dangers of contagions increased. Science Fiction films since the outbreak of HIV have reflected the public fear of the unknown and unbeatable contagions. Films such as Outbreak (1995), Contagion (2011) and the recent World War Z (2013) have shown audiences a creative window of possible outcomes of an epidemic and what man would do in order to stop the

In all of animation and other visual story mediums there are millions of characters, spanning a wide range of personalities. From cowards to heroes, stories tend to use heroes as a vessel to allow the reader to superimpose themselves into the story. They like to make them human relatable and give the reader something to identify they with. As for myself I struggled to think of a character that I could wholeheartedly agree was me.

I chose three of my current favorite characters from either an anime or video game. The first one is Josuke Higashikata from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. I first got into the Jojo series when I was in eighth grade, and I’ve always been interested with Josuke ever since. In the story, he values his friends very much, and that aspect of his personality really resonated with me. The next character, Ouma Kokichi from New Dangan Ronpa V3, is fairly new, but has impacted me in many ways recently. In the game, Ouma is portrayed as a villain, and his other classmates even blame him for many things. Eventually, Ouma dies in chapter 5, but in his last moments his classmate, Kaito, tells Ouma that he finally believed in him, and that was all Ouma wanted. This ties in with my trust values, as Ouma’s character arc truly conveyed that to me. Which is why he is my favorite character in the Dangan Ronpa series. Furthermore, a series very close to my heart is Beyblade. The newest season, Beyblade Burst, introduces my favorite character Wakiya Komurasaki. Ever since I was nine years old, I have continued to keep up with the Beyblade franchise. I remember waking up and always wanting to turn on the television to watch the newest episodes, and I still continue to collect the merchandise to this day. With this in mind, though they may not be actual people, these fictional characters have a lot of meaning to
