Roland Deschain: The Man In Black

The Harlem Renaissance was a time for racial uprising and change. However, sexuality is rarely discussed when researching and reflecting on this time. Many of the leaders in the Harlem Renaissance identified somewhere along the LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual) spectrum. “Claude McKay, Wallace Thurman, Alain Locke, Richard Bruce Nugent, Angelina Weld Grimké, Alice Dunbar-Nelson and Langston Hughes, all luminaries of the New Negro literary movement, have been identified as anywhere from openly gay (Nugent) to sexually ambiguous or mysterious (Hughes). In a 1993 essay, “The Black Man’s Burden,” Henry Louis Gates Jr., The Root‘s editor-in-chief, notes that the Renaissance ‘was surely as gay as it was black.’”

Pathos was represented in the music video through the lyrics of the song. Singing over and over again the hope of an alternative to the so called bump in the night. This can be found in verse two of the song where Michael sings: “You close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination.” Leading me to believe that these hopes were the same hopes he held on to during his own eerie times. Therefore, singing and displaying his own personal accounts, shows an appeal to the emotions of the audience and gains the credibility of the crowd of

In Stephen Dobyns’s “Loud Music,” the speaker describes the differences between him and his step-daughter’s thoughts on loud music, which shows that music really describes a person’s personality. Throughout the poem the speaker explains how his step-daughter likes soft and more meaningful music more than loud music and their different music types shows in their difference in personalities and the way they see things. People all over the world let the music they listen to describe their personalities.

“But I am not wholly sorry; either for this or for the loss in undreamable abysses of the closely written sheets which alone could have explained the music of Erich Zann.” (Lovecraft).

The gunslinger and his mule are after the man in black. As he crosses the dessert he encounters a farmer and his crow. He stays at the farmer’s house whose name is Brown and his crow, Zoltan. Later that day, the gunslinger started to talk about his old town Tull. When the gunslinger was in Tull he proceeded to a nearby café. He then met this women bartender who told the gunslinger what had happened lately. One day, this guy named Nort had passed away. All of a sudden he had got resurrected by the man in black. The girls name was Allie and she told him about a note that Nort had given her after he was alive again. The note talked about if she wanted to know about death, say nineteen to Nort. After talking to the women bartender, he had left

Roland felt very angry emotions towards Cort so he wanted to take out his anger by defeating him. Another reason why Roland would chase the man in black is to learn more about the dark tower. “The man in black laughed - a full, hearty laugh that seemed to challenge the receding echo of gunshots. ‘Would you kill all your answers so easily, gunslinger?’” (King 142). In this quote, Roland blindly shot at the man in black after he finally caught up to him. The man in black smartly reminds him that he has the answers that Roland wants so he should stop shooting. Later, after Roland and Jake (a boy the Gunslinger found in the desert) crossed through the mountain, they have to climb over a large chasm on small and rickety train tracks. The boy slips, and the Gunslinger has a choice either to save the boy or go with the man in black. He chooses man over the child because he believes that the man in black holds vital answers about the Dark Tower. Roland goes against his emotions and feelings for the boy to go with the man in black. The Gunslinger was motivated to chase the man in black across mountains and deserts to seek the approval of those closest to him and to try and learn about the Dark

One of the most devastating pandemics in history during the 14th century caused turmoil and massive death amongst Europe. The disastrous disease known as the Black Death ultimately wrenched society in melancholia and disseverment. As a result, a series of social and economic upheavals had a profound effect on society; creating lack of optimism of better days. The people suffered religiously because the pandemic displayed a darker side of life leaving them to question their beliefs. Eventually, such upheavals relinquished and a sanguine time befitted Europe. Although the black plague claimed the lives of millions and placed kingdoms in turmoil, the plague actually improved economic conditions for its survivors. Depopulation allowed wealth for many people and Europe was on its way into a new age of prosperity.

The movie proceeds from there as Stoddard tells about his old friend Tom Doniphon, the hero from the west played by John Wayne, and their encounters with Liberty Valance. Even though the emotions and physical characteristics differ significantly between the two characters, Ransom Stoddard and Tom Doniphon needed each other in order to rid the

Heart of Darkness and Things Fall Apart illustrate the different ways of presenting Africa in literature. In Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad shows Africa through the perspective of the colonizing Europeans, who tend to depict all the natives as savages. In response to Conrad 's stereotypical depiction of Africans, Chinua Achebe wrote Things Fall Apart through the point of view of the natives to show Africans, not as primitives, but as members of a thriving society. Things Fall Apart follows Okonkwo 's life as he strives for prestige in his community. When European missionaries come to Umuofia, Okonkwo 's clan, Okonkwo tries to protect the culture that the missionaries would destroy in the name of "civilizing" the natives. However his rigid mentality and violent behavior has the opposite of its intended effect, perpetuating the stereotype of the wild African in the eyes of the European readers.

Horror films are known for their ability to scare audiences, to get the audience’s hearts racing, their blood rushing. A good horror film will cause viewers to be on the edge of their seats and having their perception of reality distorted as they attempt to understand the unraveling plot of the horror film. The tone of the film aides in the amount of suspense that a horror film produces, since a much darker film will create a more suspenseful atmosphere than one that is more focused on campy monster makeup. But the tone of a film is determined by the sound of the film, or in other words, the score. Sound or music in a horror film, or the lack thereof, make the intense scenes and without the addition
