Similarities Between The Trapper Trapped And The Short Story

Authors of great stories often use good technical writing skills. The purpose of this essay is to compare and contrast two short stories: Where Are you going, Where Have You Been by Joyce Carol Oates and Hills Like White Elephants by Earnest Hemingway. The comparison and contrast will be done based on their use of plot, point of view and character development.

The stories “Being Prey” and “The Sound of Thunder” have many comparable literary elements. Elements such as mood, theme, and antagonist can be analyzed to find similarities and differences.

The conflict instantly changes and nature becomes involved. While trapped under the tree they realize how idiotic the quarrel has been and vow to become cordial; treating one another as neighbors, instead of as enemies. The men’s forgiveness towards each other displays an internal conflict because both had to weigh the pros and cons of ending the feud. Either they make peace and work together to get freed, or they could just stay angry at one another and risk never being rescued from under the tree. Therefore, the three main conflicts displayed in “The Interlopers” are Man vs. Man, Man vs. Nature, and Man vs. self. All of which provide a great deal of trouble for both men all through-out the novella.

“The Interlopers” and “The Sniper” are two thrilling stories that captivate your attention by adding the right amount of wits and feelings, to the right amount of action and adventure. In these stories, two men, both unaware of the other’s true personality and character, yearn the destruction of the other. “The Interlopers” and “The Sniper” are two stories that have both similarities and differences in the conflicts of the plot, moral values in the theme, and irony of the unexpected twists of the two stories.

Most stories have very similar plots, character actions and themes. Stories become unique by having different character actions and responses. In the short stories of “A Retrieved Reformation” and “Thank You M’am”, the similarities and differences between the two stories influence the direction of the plots, character actions, and theme while making the characters into better people. The plot of the two stories help change the characters into better people.

In both short stories, Campbell and Bowen had wrote a modern adaptation of classic stories. These tales and ballads are adapted to incorporate the author’s culture and life. Offer a different variation that is contextually significant. Both stories are like an expanded version of the tales and ballad. They modified some aspects of the story while maintaining the essence, or offer a different perspective of the concept of tales and ballad.

While each story had their contrasting elements, the base theme of each was remarkably similar; Both of the authors manipulate the theme of motherhood to examine the ideas of slavery, home and forgiveness during two very different time periods.

"The Interlopers" an "The story of an hour" are both very eventful short stories. The characters and setting of both stories have big life changing decisions. There is a lot of differences but there is also a lost of similarities.

At a point in both stories, there was a turning point leading to a more positive future. Mrs. Mallard arose from her chair looking out the window and was filled with glee and full of happiness to finally get to live for herself. While over in The Interlopers as both men laid underneath a fallen tree they decide to move past there family issues and work together to get free and on the path to becoming friends. Now onto the last comparison I have, at the end of both stories the main charaters Mrs. Mallard, Ulrich, and Georg

In “The Interlopers” has an unexpected ending of death, comparable to “The Story of an Hour” where the end of Mrs. Mallard’s story ends unexpectedly with death as well. In “The Story of an Hour” we see some selfishness in the character of Mrs. Mallard when she is so sad about her loss of freedom that she forgets to rejoice that her husband is alive again. In the same manner, we see some selfishness on the part of the characters in “The Interlopers” when they believe that their lives will be better without the other person and how they each hope their men arrive first to free them and kill the other, before they make peace with one another. In “The Interlopers” we see peace found at last between two long standing

Currently, a plethora of outstanding stories have been written. What makes a story, though? The answer is the elements that the author includes into his or her writing, such as symbolism and imagery. "Hills like White Elephants," written by Ernest Hemingway, and "A Good Man is Hard to Find," written by Flannery O'Connor, are just two examples of admirable work. Each writer incorporated plenty of elements to improve the story. Since the amount of elements is limited, these two writers exploited several of the same ones. Although the stories have numerous resemblances, they are also remarkably different.

Authors use literary elements dramatically in short stories to influence a certain feeling on the reader or to send out a certain message to the audience. Throughout the stories, “The Interlopers” and “Lamb to the Slaughter”, both authors use elements to make their story appealing to the reader. Saki, the author of “The Interlopers” uses his examples of literary elements precisely and tremendously, which makes his story better than Dahl’s “Lamb to the Slaughter”.

The short stories “A Rose for Emily” by William Faulkner, and “Bartleby, The Scrivener” by Herman Melville, are about two outcasts and their interactions with society. Moreover the authors use common themes and similar mannerisms bringing their characters to life. Each story has different key details, and perspectives, while they communicate the same overall premise.In both “A Rose for Emily” and “Bartleby, The Scrivener”, they share many similarities, and each have key differences that conversely set them apart.

Mr. Mdeouze influenced Jose to write that incredible story. He told him enough stories to open up his imagination and produce a beautiful paper. Mr. M taught Jose the power of language. For extra credit for this class, I listened to an interesting lecture about African Storytelling. This is what Mr. M reminded me of. Traditional storytelling is usually told by adults and spoken to children about life, rewards, and consequences. The fables are usually metaphorical stories that have to do with lessons children will learn in their daily lives. While Jose listened to Mr. M’s

Firstly, these stories have different themes; the theme in “The Interlopers” is fear, anger, mysterious however in the short story “Two Friends” the theme is war, tragedy and true friendship.
