    Jimmy and Snowman. Glenn and Jimmy. Crakers. Margaret Atwood had the choice to choose from so many names, so why name the book after two characters who die. It is understandable that perhaps the name Crake is used because Crake is the reason for this catastrophic world in which Snowman exists. Another explanation for Crake’s name is he the antagonist throughout the whole story and is present in Jimmy’s life from a very early age. But why use Oryx with it?

    The concept of change within character is accepted by society to be an indisputable truth; however, when faced with a case where this notion proves false, it is overlooked. Throughout Margaret Atwood’s Oryx and Crake, Crake’s character seemingly has two shifts; his transition from Glenn to Crake and his shift in personality after meeting Oryx. However, when analyzing the actions of Crake and the descriptions provided through Snowman’s recollection of the past, the audience is able to see otherwise

    gods getting angry with the humans and punishing them for their actions. The first one written is about Lycaon and the god Jupiter.

They generally involve one text isolated from its original historical context (e.g., the Babylonian creation myth Enuma Elish or the Flood tablet of the Gilgamesh Epic) and one related biblical narrative.

    too much rain water overflows rivers and marshes, but floods become a problem when they affect people who live around the area. This is what causes it to be a natural disaster. In this paper, I am going to talk first about the flooding in Somerset, UK. Second, I am going to talk about the flooding of the Mississippi in 1993.
