Stanley Fish was successfully able to deliver his idea through criticizing or challenging literary in poetry. He experimented on both his classes to show how meaning is not generated through inheritance but through communication and perspectivism of oneself.
Throughout my years in school I have been exposed to different readings and writings. Many of the literature pieces I studied included content with heavy analysis; such as Shakespeare or the novel Mice and Men etc.… Therefore the reader had the power to choose how to perceive the information. Moreover, throughout my years in high school, we emphasized a lot on the themes Shakespeare showcased in his texts. Many of them I interpreted came as a result of perspectivism. Where in some cases
In his memoir “Fish,” T.J. Parsell tells the story of the raw and painful details of his time spent incarcerated at the Riverside Correctional Facility. In 1978, at the age of seventeen, he made the life changing decision to hold up a photo booth with a toy gun, and was charged with armed robbery on a technicality because the woman in the booth thought it was real. His book was heartbreaking from the very first page, and demonstrated the truly traumatizing and devastating experiences he had while in the criminal justice system. Through all of his first-hand experiences, Parsell exposed the harsh and horrific truth of life behind bars, while also highlighting the perseverance and touching personal struggles of others incarcerated with him. It is safe to say that T.J. Parsell did not have a good experience within the criminal justice system.

As a young person, I don’t really notice how quickly the world changes and advances around me, because I’m changing and growing right along with it. Lillian Boxfish, the elderly title character in the novel Lillian Boxfish Takes A Walk by Kathleen Rooney, does. Her age, a focal point in the novel, allows Lillian to view the world as she remembers it, while at times preventing her from appreciating as it is. On New Year’s Eve in 1985, Lillian decides to ring in the new by remembering the old with a walk around her beloved New York City. As she walks, she thinks of the city as she once knew it and sees the city it has become, reliving memories both good and bad. In particular, Lillian is struck by how easily the city embraces new culture and ideas and forgets the legacy of what came before. Through Lillian’s journey, I learned that while it’s important to appreciate the past, you cannot neglect the present.
In D.C. Berry’s poem “On Reading Poems to a Senior Class at South High,” the speaker enables an extended metaphor of a high school class to that of a school of fish to describe the issues that arise in a class discussion between the teacher and the students. Initially, the speaker uses the simile of comparing his students to “frozen fish in a package” (line 4-5) to imply the students’ boredom. The simile demonstrates the tension that is prevalent in the classroom before the class begins. The inconsistent stanza length also contributes to the tension that has built up in the classroom.
Albert Fish was born, as Hamilton Fish in Washington, D.C. Fish was the youngest of his three siblings. Fish told everyone to call him Albert after a dead sibling and to escape his nickname “ham and eggs” (Murderpedia, n.d.). Many people in his family suffered from mental illnesses, one suffered from religious mania (Murderpedia, n.d.). Albert’s Father Randal Fish was a riverboat captain but then by 1870 he was a fertilizer manufacturer. He then dies of a heart attack at the Sixth Street Station of the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1875 in Washington, D.C (Murderpedia, n.d.). After Randal’s death, Albert’s mother put him into an orphanage, where he was frequently whipped and beaten. This is where he discovered he enjoyed physical pain, the beatings would arouse him, and the other orphans would tease him. In 1879, his mother had a government job and took him out of the orphanage.

Literary Analysis: The Literary Analysis was by far my best essay and the one I most enjoyed writing. The new critical thinking skills I learned in the first essay made writing this paper much easier. I also found the topics of the
With this said, it would be remiss to understate that literary analysis, come this far, attributes much of its contributions, but if part of a roundabout kind of way, to William Shakespeare himself, arguably at the forefront of human nature, and the actual natural environment, at least from a place of written understanding. Encompassed within the opening pages of Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human Pages, Harold Bloom, yet the acclaimed scholar on the subject, makes his case on the bearing, or, at any rate, on the renewed sense of insight transposed through each of his individual plays, and even gone to such lengths as to dividing mere “characterization” to becoming an art form, in and of itself, for a closer representation to the inner
Look at Your Fish: In the Library with Agassiz by Samuel Scudder has a tone of grit and determination as well as analyzation components to it. When the author was being put to the test by his professor on analyzing the fish, it somewhat related to the text, "Looking Closely at Visual Texts". When looking at visual texts, we must look at both the Intermediate context and the broader context. The intermediate context definition stated in the Articulations book is "anyone or anything that has an immediate role in forming the message" with either verbal text or visual text. In the story by Samuel Scudder, he explains his first encounter with his college professor and the challenge he was put up to. In the beginning, Samuel was asked what he wanted
Small details are instrumental in seeing the bigger picture. This is apparent when reading “The Fish” by Elizabeth Bishop. Most often the reader experiences visual imagery in poetry. In this poem the reader encounters visual, auditory, and sensory imagery. “The Fish” is filled with minute details that paint a picture for the reader. With each new element that is introduced, it becomes easier to visualize the fish. The speaker is able to show the reader the beauty as well as the ugliness of this creature with her vivid imagery. The imagery used is so distinct that the reader can envisage being the fisherman and catching this fish. Another important element involved in this poem is irony.
For first time aquarium starters, molly fish are considered the best. The primary reason is that they have very few needs, so that you can take care of them with ease. They are well known for their grace and hardy nature. They often become naughty when they are being kept in an aquarium with other fish. They have been found to pinch the fins of other fish in the aquarium and cause disturbances within the aquarium. Other fish due to this reason might get infection due to injuries and, therefore, eventually dies.
