The traditional Gothic taste for “portraits” is frequent in many novels and short stories that follow the conventions of literary mode making it present in these both texts; House of the Seven Gables by Hawthorne and Edgar Allen Poe’s The Oval Portrait. Often the characters in such Gothic romances are haunted by the tyranny of the past, which make it inescapable. It often leads to the destruction of their loved ones. Others motive of escape is often pulled back by a curse that the character creates upon himself. According to The Art of Terror by Maria Antonia Lima she says, “These portraits are usually a source of terror, with the past presented as something alive, like a ghost that haunts the present with its terrible mystery. Many authors consider this kind of literature itself as an example of modern art because it can become an anti-realist protest and a rebellion of the imagination against the reduction of fiction to the analysis of contemporary habits” (Lima 80). The painter introduces the “portrait” in the Oval Portrait by Edgar Allen Poe as overwhelming to him. The painter changes his behavior by no longer seeing his wife as his wife rather as an image through the lens of his painting. This idea of a “portrait” can be signified as a curse. A curse that plays with the Pyncheon’s and the painter’s emotions. In The House of the Seven Gables the “portrait” of Colonel Pyncheon is presented as an everlasting reminder of its dark past and the

In the movie and the book my favorite was the movie. Some of the reasons why i liked the movie more because it was more understanding for me. Its easier to understand things when you see it for yourself and not see it in black and white. My favorite part in the movie is when hannah is so kind and takes her life to save man many others it was emotional part in the movie. There was a big difference between the movie and the book here are some examples…

I hear you Hanna. I remember how hard it is beginning on the road and you have people watching your every move. I thought Cris was very creative in the way she handled the young lady at the beginning of the Chapter 1. It is extremely hard to demonstrate classroom management strategies in addition to teaching reading strategies while you are beginning observed by twenty teachers. First, she built a reluctant relationship with the student by acknowledging that the girl had a legitimate claim about the book boring. She continued by sharing why reading the book was relevant for the student. Why did this girl need the information? What was the pay off for the student? Cris was able to think on her feet in front twenty teachers and pull that student in without escalating the problem and causing farther embarrassment. The amazing fact is that the girl, who attends an alterative high school, complied with Cris and joined the lesson. This girl acted out in front of twenty teachers without reservation. She was exceptionally daring. She could have easily gone a different way in terms of her behavior towards Cris.

When Lena falls in love 95 days before her cure what will happen to the life she thought she was supposed to live? I loved the way that Lauren Oliver made the reader feel like they were truly part of the story by added fake excerpts of stories mentioned in the book before new chapters. She also included songs mentioned in the story to keep the reader’s interest. It made me feel like a citizen in the book itself. I enjoyed how Lauren Oliver tied romance with adventure. This was great

In “Eichmann in Jerusalem,” Hannah Arendt analyzes Adolph Eichmann while he is on trial in Jerusalem for the crimes that he committed while being a Lieutenant Colonel in the SS during the Nazi Regime. In the book Arendt talks about how Eichmann’s actions were “banal” in the sense that he seemed to be an ordinary person who just committed acts that were evil. Italian-Jewish Writer Primo Levi, a Holocaust Survivor, states that SS officers like Eichmann lived in their own self-deception that made them believe that their actions were caused by just following their orders in the SS. In this paper, I will analyze the views that both Arendt and Levi had about the Eichmann trial and then compare and state the differences of their views. I will then explain the reasons why both Hannah Arendt’s and Primo Levi’s analysis of Adolph Eichmann that show that the actions that he committed were all truly evil actions.
