    Fear Oneself: Freud’s View on Psychoanalysis “There is no question therefore, of any intellectual uncertainty here: we know now that we are not supposed to be looking on at the products of a madman’s imagination, behind which we, with superiority of rational minds, are able to detect the sober truth; and yet this knowledge does not lessen the impression of uncanniness in the least degree” (Freud 424). Freud’s concept of psychoanalysis revolves around and into the minds of characters in every literary

    Writer, Jorge Luis Borges says, “The things that are said in literature are always the same. What is important is the way they are said.” Literature is such a broad, all encompassing term that much is lost in translation. This is part of the reason behind the ongoing brawl: what qualifies as literature? In the case of graphic novels, they are often cast aside by critics, deemed definitively inferior and lacking intellectual merit. However, this assumption does not hold up in today’s world of literary

    In our current technological era, the beauty of art and literature has been forgotten despite its heavy importance in the past. For my Rhetoric-In-Practice project, I wanted to create a product that corresponds with the message of Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven.

This website is intended to be accessed by a technological literate audience of all ages since this type

Wrongness, the recognition that the world is or is about to change, is the start of the chain reaction that pushes the story further. Three novels that provide variations on this theme are, The Year of

    For me, writing has always been a challenge. I always felt like that I could not express myself with the words I had been taught or that somehow I had been left out on the instructions on how to properly write. It’s always frustrated me that writing has been a challenge, and that may be why I enjoy reading so much because other people seem to have a way with words that I don’t. I love reading other people’s words a lot more than my own so much so that I tried avoiding writing as much as possible

    Reading works of child soldier literature is, for someone amateur first-hand in atrocity, to be humbled. For such a reader inescapably bestows moral authority to those authors prematurely enlist to fight in hostilities, or who dare mention a fictional demonstration of the same. A sterling similarity which will be noticed at once we go through all these three pieces of works is their dealing with child soldiers. Portraying child soldiers as a victim of warfare is a common phenomenon in recent African
