I finally came out of my house for once but it was only to help Jem and Scout because they looked like they were getting chased. Let me rewind a little and tell all what happened that night in Chapter 31. I was sitting in my rocking chair that was near the window like I usually do at night. I like to watch and see what people are doing and who is hanging out with who at night. I was watching out the window like I said and then I heard the children screaming but I couldn't see where they were. Until I finally saw them and they were over yonder walking out of the woods. But something didn't feel right it looked as though they were getting chased by someone and they were running and screaming for help. So, I did what I would do for any of my

Amid the late 17th century, Jonathan Swift’s pamphlet, A Modest Proposal, exploits the negligence of British government towards the Irish people, especially the impoverished. To illustrate the disregard of the government, he uses logical fallacies, metaphors, repetition and parallelism as well as humor, sarcasm and satiric tone to highlight these negative attitudes. Not only does he applies these literary devices, he adopts Francis Bacon’s, The Four Idols, to exemplify the intention of this pamphlet. Adopting Bacon’s ideas of the corruption, illusions, and errors of people in society, Swift had the ability to demonstrate the government's negligence towards the people of Ireland. Bacon’s exemplify his ideas regarding society through four idols: “Idols of the Cave”, “Idols of the Tribe”, “Idols of the Marketplace,” and “Idols of the Theater”. Moreover, Swift adopts these idols in his proposition, exhibits how the knowledge each

The novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee focuses on many themes but courage is mostly shown in the novel. In the novel, there are many examples where the characters have shown courage even when he/she knows that he/she is going to lose it. Atticus Finch is a great example of showing courage in the novel. He shows great courage because he defends a black man even though he knows he is going to lose the case. Another example of showing courage is Mrs. Dubose. She shows courage because she wants to break her morphine addiction even though she knows she is going to die. Boo Radley also shows courage in the novel when he comes out of isolation in order to save the children even though he knows he might be hurt into the spotlight. These three characters are the most important characters that will be featured about showing courage from the novel.

In his “A Modest Proposal”, Johnathon Swift employs no shortage of phrases that dehumanize the Irish people. He likens women and the poor to “breeders,” implying that the only thing they are good for in life is to procreate and profit from their offspring. He goes on to reference, “child dropped from its dam,” as if making a comparison between women and animals. Swift furthers that with talk of allowing a number of women for breeding reserves, and it being more than the allotted number to that of livestock. Swift continues his dehumanization by making the people and children themselves seem inconsequential. He reduces them to mere numbers—statistics. By dividing and lessening their numbers (poor people who cannot sustain their children vs women who lose their babies), Swift makes the Irish people seem even more inconsequential. His proposal is revolting and ultimately ironic. There were vast numbers of people dying—and yet no one seemed to care. I think Swift chose his method of dehumanization because it just further made his point and it compels the person reading to think on whether they could view fellow human beings in such a cold manner.

Persecution of the innocent, a common occurrence in human history, has unfortunately stayed present in our modern era. Muslims are assaulted by islamophobes who assume them to be dangerous to us, and countless black people have been wrongfully shot by the police. These people show modern example of the motif of mockingbirds in Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird. The book takes place in rural Alabama during the Great Depression, a time when lynching black men for false crimes was common. One of these men, Tom Robinson, is accused of rape by Mayella Ewell and is to be defended by Atticus Finch in trial. Lee expresses how it is wrong to harm those who did nothing to bother others, or ‘mockingbirds’, using the characters of Boo Radley,

In A Modest Proposal, by Jonathan Swift he discusses a solution to Poverty in Ireland during the 18th century. Swift’s bizarre, yet well thought out plan for helping families of Ireland, who were in poverty and desperately in the need of money, was fattening children and selling them to the wealthier landowners. Swift even went about to write a pamphlet telling the parents just how they could fatten their babies and and the perfect age and weight to do so. One of Swift’s friends goes about to give those parents some helpful/ tasty that the kids can be cooked before eaten. This does not only financially support Ireland, but it also is improves the social, political, and economic problems. Swift didn’t see why anyone in Ireland would disagree with such a brilliant plan that could benefit them all in so many ways, except the children that will be eaten. Swift even goes on to say that by shrinking the population of kids it would just be less subjects to worry about ruling over. Swift’s idea on fattening kids to sell as food to the wealthier landowners of Ireland was one of the most brilliant solutions to solve all of the problems being brought about in Ireland.

Insanity can make a narrator completely unreliable, but out of three stories one stands out as the most unreliable. The first of the three stories that are in question is The Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allen Poe, which is about an insane person who kills an old man over what he perceives to be a vulture eye. Second is The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, which is about a woman who is cooped up in a room by her husband and how the wallpaper of said room slowly drives her insane. Thirdly is Strawberry Spring by Stephen King which is about a killer that no one can catch that strikes during a weather phenomenon known as a strawberry spring. The most unreliable narrator out of the three is the Caretaker from The Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allen Poe because he is devoid of morality and denies his own insanity.

Many view America as a land of opportunity, one that preaches freedom and has specific laws to ensure the equality of this pursuit of freedom. Despite the intention of promoting freedom and equality, many American laws transcend these values and mirror the true sentiments of our nation’s constituents. These laws cannot serve to uphold equality if that intention does not come to fruition in their practice and application to societal issues. In Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, Tom Robinson, a black man in a mostly white community, faces accusations and a subsequent trial for the rape of Mayella Ewell, a white girl of the town. As the Southern setting of the novel implies, the racial aspect of this trial consumes the town of Maycomb,

Theses 2 characters helped the thing know what it was becoming. Chichi, the mom, tells the girl to tell her a story but the young girl says she does not know any stores. The mom says “There are a thousand stories inside you. You just have to open your mouth.” At the time the girl did not know what she was talking about, she did not think it meant anything until she met the stranger. The girl’s mom died so she felt sad and lonely, this is when she became a women. She walked until she saw the stranger. The stranger had rice husk and cassava flakes in his mouth. The stranger asked to see her mouth but she responded by saying she was not like him, and he said “Everyone’s mouth is the type of mouth which has things spouting inside.” When she opened her mouth she had a helm of dhow, red cardigans, and off white canvas shoes in it. The stranger told her to suck on them, this meant that she soaked up the meaning of these items. Lucero mentioned that the stranger represents life. The stranger taught the women what to do with the objects, he guided her on how to see life. Life teaches you on how to make friend. They both sat on a roof top and talked about everything they saw like all the people that walked by, this symbolized friendship. The only people that would have a conversation like this would be two best friends. The stranger taught her that a mirror does not define who she is, she can become whoever she wants to be.

The Scarlett Letter is a novel written by Nathaniel Hawthorne in 1850, (but taking place in the mid-1600s), in which he exposes the ideas of legalism as well as the effects of sin in Puritan Boston, Massachusetts. The novel is based around the life of protagonist, Hester Prynne, a woman found guilty of adultery. This act of adultery ended in pregnancy and in order to shame her, a red letter “A” is placed on her clothing so that everyone knows of the sin she committed. While being shamed Hester is wheedled into confessing the identity of the father of her child, which she refuses to do.

During the initial scenes, Maz starts talking about his family and describes his sister ‘as a monster’, allowing the audience to understand how the male figures in this scene view their female counterparts. The way in which both male characters describe Lola, exemplifies how they perceive her as a ‘the other’. “The noises of monster and the man join together to make a wall of chaotic sound, the light quickly grows, fills the world and becomes a blinding crescendo as a girl’s voice desperately says ‘Let me in’ ” the characterization of Lola, pursuing her male victim as the ‘gorgon’ coincided the metaphor of the story. Another instance of Lola being characterized as a ‘Gorgon’ Figure is when she asks Lee “would you rather have Marshmallow teeth of stone tongue?” Due the questions metaphysical nature and its relation to the ‘stone of the Gorgon’, it directly grasps the attention of both Lee and the audience. The immediate reaction of Lee is his change in body language, from his once ‘shut off’ stance, replaced with one of uncertainty and confusion, resembling the figure of someone in the Gaze of the ‘Gorgon”. The choice of these linguistics and non-verbal techniques chosen by the writer is able to exploits the nature of the metaphor, strengthening and amending the story line of the visual

The American Dream is the phrase and trademark of American society today that many hope to achieve in some point in their lives. In Hunter S. Thompson’s novel, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, readers follow Thompson depicted as Raoul Duke and his attorney Dr. Gonzo in hoping to find the American Dream. It uses Gonzo Journalism, a style that is an adaption of Picaresque narrative to document his drug-induced experiences traveling through 1970’s Las Vegas. The Picaresque novels are composed of first-person narrative that relates to the adventures of a picaro character or rogue hero with an episodic structure and romantic techniques to present the story as a realist. The novel presents various examples of picaresque genre and American journey narratives. Thompson uses picaresque narrative of a rogue hero’s desert journey for the American Dream in bars, casinos, hotels only to find that it is essentially unattainable. At the same time, Thompsons examines the generation’s failure to achieve the American Dream by commenting on their cultural behavior in the 1960s and 1970s.

In Carson McCuller’s novel, The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter, the main theme is isolation and a search for some connection to be normal. McCuller’s traces the lives of five characters that center their lives around one main character named John Singer, a deaf-mute. These characters are representative of all people and not just their specific characters in the novel. McCuller’s is characterized as a Southern-Gothic writer, and was known for her depiction of lonely characters, as well as carefully describing the sexual alienation of their desolate lives. This novel was considered one of McCuller's best works, and it certainly reflects the strange beauty and the encoded messages that she was so
