Warrior: A Fictional Narrative

It was only a matter of finding the right demon to torture,” Bli replied. “This is excellent news!” Fang’s day was only getting better. Talon was an exceptional warrior in the king’s guard, and it would be good to have him back. “How is his health?” “Good, considering what he must have went through at the hands of Silor. He’s not talking about it but is busy helping the queen get the women settled and making sure

Rachel wasn’t exactly sure if she heard right, but she was pretty sure that Xena Warrior Princess was mentioned. She wanted to ask about that, but decided that would just devolve into a conversation she didn’t want to have. All she wanted was to get off the street and make sure everyone was safe. “What? Oh, we’re staying St. Christopher’s

The structure of our project is similar to a video game medium. It begins with introduction/setup where one learns the situation of the characters (surviving in a squatter camp), a small amount of backstory about

family consists of pre-existing family roles of domestic wife and dominant husband, which is still seen today in a vast majority of traditional and contemporary families. This family structure, to an extent, is portrayed and represented in the family narratives of Fun Home, The Simpsons, and Ghost by Mandava. The relationship between the parents of Alison, Helen and Bruce, is strained, devoid of romance or any sort of emotional attachment, and brittle. Yet, the construction of the house and family matters

One example of this is in the comic Tintin and the Picaros. This volume follows the infamous adventurers Tintin and his dog Snowy as they explore Mexico. During their journey they encounter an ancient pyramid in a fictional city of San Theodoros, which is modeled after the Pyramid

Comparing The Joy Luck Club and The Woman Warrior       Amy Tan's immensely popular novel, The Joy Luck Club explores the issues faced by first and second generation Chinese immigrants, particularly mothers and daughters. Although Tan's book is a work of fiction, many of the struggles it describes are echoed in Maxine Hong Kingston's autobiographical work, The Woman Warrior: Memoirs of a Girlhood Among Ghosts. The pairs of mothers and daughters in both of these books find themselves separated

Hayden White notes that, “historical discourse wages everything on the true, while fictional discourse is interested in the real—which it approaches by way of an effort to fill out the domain of the possible or imaginable” (White 147). This essay will articulate an analysis of the narrative structure of Maxine Shore’s The Captive Princess, along with the character development of the protagonist Princess Gwladys Ruffyd, the antagonist

Although the two novels covered similar aspects of war and did so exquisitely there were some slight differences in narrative styles that can force one to choose one book over the other in regards to understanding the life of a soldier. On one hand, Karl Marlantes’s Matterhorn had more of an in depth look at the racial conflicts that come along with being a part of the

avenge dear ones than to indulge in mourning. For every one of us, living in this world, means waiting for our end. Let whoever can, win glory before death. When a warrior is gone, that will be his best and only bulwark”. From a warrior’s point of view, he (Beowulf) is explaining that they fight for glory and the legacy that a warrior strives to leave behind instead of living to get to a better afterlife.

Kristof, Sheryl WuDunn, Banana Yoshimoto, and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie bring awareness to these heartbreaking yet inspiring narratives of the lives of women outside of North America. While some of the works are fictional, there is still an air of realism that accentuates the general ideas conveyed in the individual narratives.
