Stewardship In Movies

Voice for the trees Lorax and logger Truax are considered heroes in their respective stories. Despite the two characters having such opposing views on the logging industry, they have many similarities when it comes to the delivery of their message. The Lorax shares a story of a persistent creature named Lorax who is frustrated with the Truffula trees being cut down by the evil Once-Ler. In the Truax a kind, gentle logger explains the countless benefits of logging to the grouchy Guardbark protector of the trees. This essay will compare and contrast the two stories.

In this essay I will be comparing the lion king scenes to all of the subjects that we learned over the course of 9th grade. First I will be talking about Machiavelli and his influence is in lion king. The character that mostly represented him is Mufasa because of his braveness and loyalty and the hereditary principality. If you don't know him. he is the king of all animals except the hyenas they live in a different area. they are represented by the mercenaries in Machiavelli.which how scar gets help from them to kills his brother Mufasa. He is king of the jungle and he is the protector of all of their land. The one scene is the part where his son asks him about being scared and brave. Mufasa tells him that sometimes you have to be brave when it's needed.The second which is the scene when we get the “fox and the lion” subliminally.

In the serious yet optimistic journal entry, John Muir employs the idea of spiritual duty, and personification, as humans to preserves the continuously killed Redwoods. Muir has seen the death of hundreds of trees and knows the irreparable damage it could cause if the damage continues, “...kings of the forest, the noblest of a noble race, rightly belong to the world, but as they are in California we cannot escape responsibility as their guardians” (paragraph, 6). The author’s use of “noblest of a noble race” and “responsibility as their guardian” evokes an intense need to not only protest the killing of these giants but to nurture and advocate respect for the Redwoods. As humans, Muir demands an explanation as to our mistreatment of the sacred creatures and will take no other answers than of one that demonstrates total and complete love for the trees. He expects those who are damaging God’s prized forests to questions themselves and to examine their actions so that they can correct their mistakes. Another example of personification that appeals to the trees is John Muir’s description of the insurgence of rebellion against the murder of the trees, and the rejoicing of the behemoths, “... this righteous uprising in defense of God’s trees in the midst of exciting politics and wars… and every Sequoia… has heard the good news and is waving its branches for joy” (paragraph, 1). The words in this sentence serve primarily to illustrate the tree’s emotions. By giving the trees the ability to feel and exhibit joy over their possibly brighter future, it gives people a sense of pride about alleviating some of the Redwood’s pain. As Muir has demonstrated many times before, it is the people's duty to cherish the Redwoods; there will never be a moment when this job is completed.

Violent imagery characterizes the ruthless and cruel forest by describing how the forest has been eating itself to live forever. “...a choir of seedlings arching their necks out of rotted tree stumps, sucking life out of death” (Kingsolver 5). The setting in this novel is defined by this quote. In order to survive, one must be willing to put their needs first, or else they will suffer the consequences. In this world, nothing is safe. The forest

The Lion King is a good movie to do the movie application project on. Many people have seen this movie in their childhood. I never paid attention before to how much this movie actually shows us. The studies that we went over in this chapter go well with this movie.Obedience is a big role in this movie due to how the animal kingdom works. In this movie, the hyenas obey scar by listening to him. Scar told the hyenas to help him overthrow Mufusa and kill him so that he can become king.This example of Obedience which is associated with the Milgram's study which was done to show obedience to authority figures.Conformity is also present in this movie because of how the animals are. For example, in this movie

The author Julia Butterfly Hill book is a personal reference of the adversity she overcame when faced with saving a part of nature, a part of what defines her, a piece of something she would never let go of. In this novel the author gives biographical evidence of not only her love of saving the redwood trees. The story begins in December of 1996, in the town of Stafford, California. There was a mudslide which was catastrophic and buried seven homes. The removal of the redwood trees was what she states to be a cause and effect of this disaster because they absorb the moisture that causes erosion. She was up against the Maxxam

The Influence of Power Influence, influences run the world, but, the influence of power reigns over all. Not many know of the similarities of power between Shakespeare’s Hamlet and Disney’s The Lion King. They are both great tales of love, power, and betrayal, focusing on the prince of each throne. Although the influence of power affects everyone, it can affect each person differently according to their own situation.

The book "The Baron in the Trees," by Italo Calvino is about the Baron Cosimo Piovasco di Rondò, or simply known as Cosimo, spent almost all of his life living up in the trees of Ombrosa after refusing to eat the disgusting plate of snails that his sister had made for the family dinner one night when he was twelve. Cosimo kept to his word "I'll never come down again!" (Calvino 13) and he never set foot on the ground again. Cosimo was not bound to one tree though; he was able to travel to many parts of Ombrosa by tree, and lead a very adventurous and full life. The main point of my essay is to discuss the ongoing relationship between Cosimo and the environment.

He didn't plant any Truffula Trees in place of the ones he cut down. He only had time to run his factory and make Thneeds. He kept making more Thneeds and making more money. Slowly all the animals that depended on the Truffula Trees for food, shelter, and fresh air had to move away from the barren wasteland that was once a beautiful and clean forest. The air was full of smog and the lakes were full of gook from the factory.

The movie “The Lion King” demonstrates exceeding amounts of psychological concepts, theories and principles as shown in the movie. There is a few of which we talked about in class that takes place during the movie in which will be stated below, even though there are tons more that could be talked about. The creators of the film knew what they were doing when they were putting together the animation movie, sliding in all the psychological concepts as possible in a little childs film. When a child is watching the movie they do not think about, or even know any of the concepts/theories on what is going on. These are things such as the prosocial behavior, guilt/shame, extraversion/introversion, and Freud’s Psychoanalytic Theory of Personality,

The Lion King is a classic Disney animated film but the multitude of people that have watched this film have not made the connection that is actually a metaphor for something else. When looking deep into the film and thinking about the underlying themes of the story a plot that relates to communism and the Soviet Union comes to mind. The Lion King is closely related to how the Soviet Union ran things and how they carried out their beliefs. The characters in the Lion King also closely relate to people that had an impact on the rise and fall of the Soviet Union. In the movie Lion King Scar and his destruction represent the poverty and people in communism.

Almost everyone in the world is familiar with the infamous Disney movie The Lion King, but very few have gone into detail and analyzed the rhetoric within the film. Each scene is filled with a sense of pathos that tugs on the emotions of the audience and inevitably pushes them to one side over the other. It is interesting to see how the voices, color, and actions of each character have such an effect on their personalities which then has an effect on the audience and leaves them judging the morals of the characters. For people who grew up watching the original Disney movies, this is a great film to watch in depth and really figure out the meaning behind each scene.

that have been compelled to care for their forests by systematic managing. He also says that, “In their natural condition, or under wise management, keeping out destructive sheep, preventing fires, selecting the trees that should be cut for lumber, and preserving the young ones, these forests would be a never failing fountain of wealth and beauty” (360). We can clearly notice that nature is important to him. His writings moved presidents, and congressmen, “Any fool can destroy trees. They cannot run away; and if they could, they would still be destroyed—chased and hunted down as long as fun or a dollar could get out of their bark hides……-God has cared for these trees…but he can not save them from fools – only Uncle Sam can do that.”

The affect of environmental issues occur everyday and in particular deforestation is becoming a highly ranked subject. From animals to the human race, the alacrity of trees that are cut down affects every individual in a variety of ways. Not only do people need to help the planet but they need to help themselves and further generations to come, such as children and grandchildren because these natural resources that are being taken away from society are as well shaping the future. For comprehensible reasons, forests use to make up the world, until man made creatures started to destroy and destruct the most important supply to human kind which are trees. Trees are crucial to every living entity for the reason of providing oxygen to all.

A warning by Doctor Seuss in his 1971 children’s book, The Lorax, a parable exhorting young readers to treasure the beauty and the natural world they live in, and not chew them up and chop them down for short-term profit. The Lorax advanced into great depth on the true meaning of this. The main features of this story are to stop the demolition of trees, it’s a prime example of Stewardship. Dr. Seuss has created an arboretum where beautiful, vivid and fairy floss like trees engulf the forest like a cake covered in multi coloured frosting, but in the blink of an eye the beauty vanishes, all due to one man’s selfishness, and lack of knowledge for what creation can do for humanity. The film establishes the consequences of the demolition of trees and all the beauty that would be lost. The people of Sneedville are condemned to living in a society that does not even remember what trees are and replace the natural world with artificial trees, polluting their environment even further.
