The Invalid's Story

The theme is portrayed through a varying length of sentences. According to the text “ How often had he seen pegasus flying in the sky ceiling, or seen fountains of red fireworks, or heard angel voices singing, but now is yellow hot africa, this bake oven with murder in the heat.” This sentence is long and rambly, and kind of foreshadows on how the veldt will, in the end, be baked with murder. On the flip side there are sentences that are very short and still reflect the lesson of the story. For example “ Mr. and Mrs. Hadley screamed.”

The book, “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” is a story about the exploits of the struggling patients of a psychiatric ward, an overbearing nurse, and a vulgar but lively new admission. Within this particular story, Kesey implements thematic elements in the story. These elements are known as motifs in which gives the story a deeper meaning including the characters as well. Three motifs are used to influence the reader’s understanding of the story which are the fog, the religious Christ aspect, and people as machines. Throughout the novel these elements are heavily noticed and do provide such deep meaning to the characters and story. With this in mind this makes the story more of a true experience.

People read countless stories that have a variety of themes in them. When people read “Angela's Ashes” by Frank McCourt, and “The Street” by Ann Petry, they can probably sense that there is something similar among the two stories', and that's because they share a common theme. The theme is how people can persevere through problems that they encounter. The reader will discover this similar theme of persevering through problems with the way the authors utilize the character of characters feelings and personality, the way setting creates a backdrop that establishes the tone of the story, and events that cause conflict to the character.

Theme is big idea we take away from a story after reading it. In the novel, Tangerine by Edward Bloor, the primary theme of the story is friendship. The theme of friendship shows up in many events throughout the novel. Over and over again, the reader sees the character(s) struggling with this theme. Bloor develops characters to represent the importance of friendship and what it reveals about human beings.

You are given two short stories, one is "Angela's Ashes" and the other, "The Street". After reading the two it is easy to contrast them even you skimmed over the text. That statement just further supports the idea that if you read the stories in depth you will find the theme is more alike than you would expect. This is just one example of similar themes, the external conflicts of the two may be different, but the message behind the two is as close to the same as you can get. In this case the message behind both is; to persevere even when life gets you down to the point of giving up. To prove this theme, the use of characters, setting, and events are used.

After reading the story, I am not sure about the theme, but I think it has to do with the fraud and the reputation. Dr Harden publishes a book about his dead nephew, which he later finds out he is still alive. The publisher wants to cover up the true and deceives the readers. The conflict in the story is among Fitzgerald, Dr Harden and Cosgrove Harden. Fitzgerald and Dr. Harden want Cosgrove Harden to hide the secrete for them and leave to California, because they do not want their reputation collapse in the public. However, Cosgrove is angry and accuses what they did. He does not want to leave and does not think it will solve the. The whole story is surrounding with this conflict, in the end of the story, people still found out. I think the

In this story, I have found that the themes that have stood out to me is gender and love. These themes have captured a major thematic idea by gender being discriminated against the women and the men. Gender is described as women being weaker than the men and men being the powerful ones. Love is described in this story as independent until it is found. Finding love is a part of life and everybody tries to find it but when it is found, it seems like you have lived you life to the fullest. These examples of the themes can be brought into the real world and can affect how people live their lives.

In Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises, Hemingway writes a novel centered around Jake Barnes and his post war lifestyle in Europe. Seán Hemingway wrote an introduction for the novel long after the original publication that Jake Barnes was written as a representation of Ernest Hemingway, Cohn was a representation of Harold Loeb, and Brett was a representation of Duff Twysden (1). Hemingway wrote this novel in order to showcase what it means to be lost in life, and part of Gertrude Stein’s lost generation. When reading the novel, it is clear to see that the characters, including Barnes, are lost in what they want from life. The audience primarily witnesses long nights of drinking and partying, but within those nights, often times the characters found themselves alone.

The way I interpreted the story, the themes are choices and what the consequences or advantages of those choices are. He keeps choosing to go from one job to another, and one state to another etc. and we later find out that it was either smart or dumb.

The novel, rather than describing a complete lack of order, has characters trying to give meaning to events around them. This reinforces the theme of absurdity by strengthening the impact each instance of absurdity has on the novel. The film overlooks this through an overall lack of explanation, resulting in the overall theme of absurdity being collectively, less meaningful. By blatantly introducing absurdity, and attempting to understand the lack of reason, the novel provides a deeper understanding of the theme of absurdity than the film.

There are themes in every piece of fictional literature ever written. A theme is the central idea of a story that is fictional. A theme can be everything from good verse evil to as simple as light and darkness. In any story there may be more than one theme in it. Some stories have numerous central ideas that can be seen in the one. Most people only focus on one while there may be five that are important to understand to understand the story. The Tell-Tale Heart like some has numerous themes that are all important to understanding the story.

Theme is an integral part of this story and is mostly presented through the narrator. One of the major themes of the story is conscience, in which many of the conflicts in the

The characteristics of Uranus are vastly different from the ones on Earth, as Uranus cannot support any form of life. There is much to Uranus that makes it impossible for us to live on. Things such as temperature, the atmosphere, and it’s distance from the sun. The atmosphere has gases that make it impossible for us to live on. Since there are so many gasses that we cannot tolerate, there is a minimal amount of oxygen on Uranus. In fact, the whole planet is a gas giant, which means it is completely made of gas. Therefore, no life form would be able to live on Uranus, due to the fact that you cannot walk on Uranus.

The theme in the story could be at the first glance be the repressions of feelings like guilt and regret. I think the author does this intentionally and that there is a deeper meaning in this story. The story is layered with vivid imagery of nature and its contrasts. The wilderness is a vicious beast that gives nothing back to the ones who does not respect it. Camp Manitou represents the safe point in this story. After Louis moves outside this safe zone, the mystery of Lucy’s disappearance happens.

One way that O’Flaherty sets emphasises on the theme is by inputting situational irony in the story. The author shows situational irony in the following quote: “Then the sniper turned over the dead body and looked into his brother’s face” (O’Flaherty 265). The reader did not expect for the sniper to have killed any family member. The reader only expected the sniper to have killed any soldier, but the fact that he killed his brother makes the situation extremely ironic. This situation is ironic because no brother should be against each other fighting to death no matter what circumstance or situation it is, but these two were put in that position very ironically. This irony makes the reader feel enraged and resentful towards war because as family should never be against each other regardless, but war has put them in this very ironic position. The fact that the
