The language of both Standard English and Creole presented in Caribbean literary texts is integral in understanding the narrative voices established within the texts as well as the socio-cultural differences illustrated. This paper seeks to address issues raised by the representation of Creole in literary texts by closely examining three articles, “Language use in West Indian Literature,” “The Language of Earl Lovelace,” and “Samuel Selvon’s linguistic extravaganza: Moses Ascending”. An important

“I am so glad to be away from the house!” Joan beamed. Not only was she thrilled to be more than a few steps from home, she was happy to have some alone time with Perceval. She was anxious for a repeat of those few stolen kisses and touches they’d shared. And perhaps more. There had been no sign of Morgane, her men, or any other intruders during the past week, which allowed Joan to cast aside her fears of losing Perceval. “Wait for me to help you down,” said Perceval, once he and Joan arrived at

, although he definately isn't! Shelter doesn't own a hostel; he's lying so that he can drag the person back to his enigmatic flat and brutally murder him. When Shelter stupidly lied to the homeless people, he'd act a completely different way to what he feels. For example he'd sympathetically smile and tell the person that he cares about them, when he only wants to heartlessly kill them (faulse personality). He's superlatively malevolent. The quote: "don't worry, I'll help you" shows this. The

Drea threw up her hands in playful resignation. “I suppose we can.” “We will do more than make it work. The three of us will be happy together for all our days. Hopefully more than three of us in the future.” Her gaze shifted away from him. “Gawain, I lost my last pregnancy. Who knows what’ll happen with the next one.” “Look at me.” With a gentle nudge, he tilted her face back toward him. “You and Wallace are all I need. If we have more children, wonderful. If not, I am perfectly satisfied with the

Changing Feelings Towards Peter and Andrea in Once in a House on Fire 'Once in a house on fire' by Andrea Ashworth At the beginning of the Novel, A freak accident robbed Andrea of a loving father at the age of five.

there was once an Oxford student named Nicholas, who studied astrology and was well acquainted with the art of love. Nicholas boarded with a wealthy but ignorant old carpenter named John, who was jealous and highly possessive of his sexy eighteen-year-old wife, Alisoun. One day, the carpenter leaves, and Nicholas and Alisoun begin flirting. Nicholas grabs Alisoun, and she threatens to cry for help. He then begins to cry, and after a few sweet words, she agrees to sleep with him when it is safe to

Tragedy is developed in Romeo and Juliet through the bawdy, sexual innuendo-filled, and erotic language that is employed by both Mercutio and the Nurse. Mercutio’s use of erotic language allows him to become the hero of Romeo and Juliet, and because of his willingness to experiment with affection in a world attempting to stifle it, his death unravels the depth of tragedy in the play. The Nurse uses bawdiness to point out the inevitabilities of Juliet’s desire and to attempt to normalize that desire

conditions to stop him from enjoying his life, ‘It needs more than the rain’s hearse’, this also gives an image of death by using the word ‘hearse’. Verse 2 shows a positive attitude towards life and that he is not miserable, ‘Miserable? Kick my arse!’ It shows that he thinks that it would take a lot more than the weather to drive him away from his work or make him miserable. The use of the metaphor ‘great perch of my laugh’ at the end of the second verse helps to support other evidence in

Another issue that is a huge part of O’Brien’s life is her own childhood. One fact that Peggy O’Brien illustrates in her assessment of O’Brien is how crucial her strained relationship with her father and complicated relationship with her mother. Peggy O’Brien believes that these childhood issues flow into her writing, but even O’Brien can agree with that. In a recent interview, O’Brien reflected back on her own life and the effects that her childhood had on her own life. In the interview, O’Brien

The History and Context of Club Culture "History is hard to know because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of history it seems entirely reasonable that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons that nobody really understands at the time, and which never explain, in retrospect, what really happened" (Hunter.S.Thompson, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas") The late 1980's saw
