Who's Got The Monkey Analysis

In the article, “Monkey See, Monkey 2: Scientists Clone Monkeys Using Technique that Created Dolly the Sheep,” written by Jen Christensen of CNN, explains how scientists have cloned a monkey in China. The article described how using somatic cell transfer, the removing a nucleus from an unfertilized egg and replacing it with with a nucleus from another cell, which is then transplanted into a surrogated mother, scientists were capable of creating a clone of a primate. My position on this experiment is believing animals should not be cloned due to the fact that it can result in many different complications.

Kurt Vonnegut is known for his dark humor, wit, and imagination. He is consistently listed among the great American authors of the later twentieth century and his novel’s such as Cat’s Cradle and Slaughterhouse Five are considered modern classics. In this essay, I will focus on two of Vonnegut’s short stories “Welcome to the Monkey House” (1968) which takes place in a dystopian future where everyone is required to take pills that take all the pleasure out of sex and “Miss Temptation” (1959) which takes place in a small east coast town by looking at them through a feminist lense. Both stories come to the same ultimate conclusion that over-moralization of human

Pop culture, according to “What Monkeys Eat: A Few Thoughts About Pop Culture Writing” by Linda Holmes, though seemingly created merely for the entertainment of its viewers, can also be a segue for conversation about significant subjects. The most trivial of topics can offer an opportunity for deeper and more meaningful debate pertaining to worldwide issues. Though Popular Culture seems like a petty topic to write about, any type of piece that either directly or indirectly relates to a major political standpoint can release the floodgates of opposing opinions, arguments, and pent up anger that otherwise, could have gone unnoticed.

Throughout the history of science and religion there has always been a feud. People have been always told that this feud has lasted for centuries. Since the beginning of the scientific revolution there have a countless number of times in which science has presented a new idea about life that seemed to conflict with religion, and it almost every case religion combats it and ends up being wrong. All of these claims are basically common knowledge in today’s current day and age. Yet, is this common knowledge true? Many times, these conflicts have just been told to people as children by their teachers and parents and the children just blindly believe in these ideas just like their elders did before them. However, once scholars did more research

Throughout the beginning of the novel The Jungle, by Upton Sinclair, the main protagonist, Jurgis Rudkus, states multiple times “I will work harder” (Sinclair 24) in reference to his ever growing debts. Jurgis attempting to work his way out of his problems is symbolic of the many immigrants coming to America at the time. These immigrants came to America, the land of opportunity, that brought in people from around the world to work. But unbeknownst to these immigrants, within a few days inside of America, as it was for Jurgis, “this land of high wages had been sufficient to make clear to them the cruel fact that it was also a land of high prices” (Sinclair 31). Such begins the downward spiral of Jurgis and his family along with the many immigrant families at the time. These families are necessitating more work for their ever growing debts, and their constant efforts to thwart such failing. Jurgis’ mentioning of him working harder in order to save himself and his family also can be used to reference his shifting of his mindset throughout the novel. In the beginning, he is fresh and looking for work and believes that he will be able to work his way out of any rut that is in his way. However, as the story progresses, Jurgis’ soul and spirit become crushed by the city and its way of life. This constant antagonist to his well being lead him to, for a period of time, leaving the city and hoboing the countryside. Jurgis’ spirit was crushed until a point where his former ideals

The stories, “The Monkey’s Paw” and “What, of this Goldfish, Would You Wish,” are both based on the idea of what someone would do with three wishes. “The Monkey’s Paw” is a short story based on a family which acquires a monkey’s paw that is magical. In the end, it causes many problems for the family. “What, of this Goldfish, Would You Wish” is a legend about an Israeli boy,Yoni, who is shooting a documentary about what would people wish for if they had a magic goldfish who grants three wishes. One of the interviews goes wrong, and Yoni is killed, but he comes back to life because of a wish granted by a magic goldfish. Although the stories, “The Monkey’s Paw,” by W.W. Jacobs, and “What, of this Goldfish, Would You Wish,” by Etgar Keret, have different settings and the last wished used are contrasting, the magic talisman grants three wishes in both stories.

With his appeal to monkeys Harlow set out to prove that monkeys can tell us more about human behaviors than rats would ever do. Harlow's first theory was that animals can think and could organize their behavior in solving puzzles. In this experiment Harlow gives a monkey two stimuli: A red bloke and a thimble. In this method the monkey had to solve a puzzle between the two red and thimple if the monkey solved the puzzle and got a red bloke he would get a treat. The monkeys went through six trials with eight learning sets, the monkeys had a 50% chance of getting the correct red bloke and the thimble. On the second trial Harlow studied the behavior of the monkeys based on how they tried to solve the puzzle during this trial. With this experiment

Throughout Monkey Beach, Identity is a constant and important theme. Lisa is trying to define herself in a world which does not appreciate indigenous traditions. Ma-ma-oo says that Gladys once had the same gift and that she could "know who was going to die next"(Robinson 98), but Gladys gave it up as she grew older. In the same way, Gladys is portrayed as fun-loving and adventurous in her youth. We are told of her having made enough snow angels while drunk that, “the whole front yard was covered with them”(Robinson 65). However, Gladys is a flat character who now believes the little man is merely a reoccurring dream. She has not just lost the gift, she has lost part of her culture and belief in the supernatural. Lisa's resistance to the dismissal of her gift is how she differs from her mother, and is a very important part of Lisa's character. Lisa's identity throughout the book is complex, but most importantly, she is underdeveloped as a person. It is important to note that the reason Lisa cannot communicate with the dead very well is because she lacks the required knowledge, this serves as metaphor for future generations being aware of their culture; but not nurturing it to a point of understanding.
