shared by Connor P on 16 Feb 12 - No Cached
  • while Shelley's Gothic in Frankenstein (1818) urges personal integrity and social responsibility in an age of scientific progress, and represents the anxiety produced by the disruption of the traditional, known natural world order.
  • Connor P on 16 Feb 12
     
    This source discusses the theme of responsiility in the novel as Victor is responsibile for the monster life. It also talks about the theme of chaos vs order as the creation of a new life form disturbs the order of the world.

#3 in cold blood irrational thoughts parenting

shared by Connor P on 21 Mar 12 - No Cached
  • His romantic escapism (he dreams of diving for treasure but cannot swim, imagines himself a famous tap dancer but has hopelessly maimed legs) becomes comprehensible in the light of his homeless, brutalized background, more bizarre than any fiction; his undoing is elaborately plausible.
  • Connor P on 21 Mar 12
     
    This quote shows the irrationality of perrys thoughts for they do not make sense as he hopes to dive for treasure but cannot swim. This also goes into the effects of his childhood.

shared by Connor P on 05 Jan 12 - No Cached
  • These imposed ideas prevent him from discovering who he is, and allow others to see him as they want to see him.
  • Without his realizing it, he comes to live within the limitations set by others, forged out of prejudice. After his time living underground, he comes to understand that he will be proud of his racial heritage and make important contributions to society, which will force others to acknowledge him for the man he truly is.

shared by Connor P on 08 Jan 12 - No Cached
  • He had eight children with his wife, Sister Clara Muhammad, but also fathered a number of illegitimate children with his secretaries, a circumstance that was one of the reasons for Malcolm X's final break with the Nation of Islam in 1964.
  • Connor P on 08 Jan 12
     
    This again shows the deception which changes Malcolm X's life forever. He understands that the Nation of Islam is not for him just as IM learns the Brotherhood is not for him. This leads to both of their discoveries about themselves.

#3 as i lay dying isolaton selfishness family disunity

shared by Connor P on 01 Mar 12 - No Cached
  • A strong irony is at work in most of the monologues in the novel, revealing Anse and his children with their individual dreams and preoccupations, some of them utterly selfish,
  • A whole range of emotions colors the monologues and hence the novel as a whole, from anger and hatred and fear to loyalty and reverence.
  • Connor P on 01 Mar 12
     
    This is the theme of selfishness and hostility within the family. Both of these Gothic elements imployed by Faulker lead to the ultimate theme of isolation

#3 jungle poor treatment workers

shared by Connor P on 30 Sep 11 - No Cached
  • Large corporations grew prosperous, but their wealth failed to trickle down to the worker, whose real wages dropped behind steadily rising prices. Faced with unsafe, unsanitary, and tenuous working conditions, factory workers lacked both economic and emotional security.
  • Connor P on 30 Sep 11
     
    This underlined quote displays the conditions the workers of the early 20th century had to overcome. Coming from poor areas and having nothing, their jobs could not supply them with any form of security but rather put stress into their lives and destroyed families.

#3 grapes of wrath poor treatment workers helping

shared by Connor P on 30 Sep 11 - No Cached
  • The Grapes of Wrath is a bitter tale of humans against nature and against a brutally exploitive society, but it is also a tale of nobility, of self-sacrifice, and ultimately of hope.
  • Connor P on 30 Sep 11
     
    This quote shows the constant battle between humans against nature and society. Nature and society is symbolic of the poor working conditions and few jobs that they must overcome. By displaying the theme of the fight for better conditions, Steinbeck parallels this with his theme of helping others to show their differences

#3 fast food nation poor treatment workers

shared by Connor P on 30 Sep 11 - No Cached
  • Meatpacking workers tend to be the most vulnerable of the vulnerable: mostly non-unionized, mostly poor white and Mexican, often undocumented, easy prey for a meatpacking industry that doesn't shy away from intimidation.
  • role in spreading beef-borne pathogens--particularly the deadly E. coli 0157:H7--and its attempts to skirt government oversight
  • Connor P on 30 Sep 11
     
    This shows that the workers and consumers are at the dispense of the businesses as they dont have the power to overcome them. Due to their social and economic situations, the corporations can control their products and working conditions however they want

#3 a a room of one's own class conflict power

shared by Connor P on 12 Oct 11 - No Cached
  • Connor P on 12 Oct 11
     
    This shows how men dominate women in society which juxtaposes the bosses domination of their low class employees. The author uses words like dominate, tyrannize, choose, or reject to show the power and contol that lies in the hands of the upper classes . Therefore, Woolf and other authors like Sinclair and Steinbeck speak out against the upper class and urge the lower classes to unite and fight.

#3 the great gatsby the american dream

shared by Connor P on 24 Oct 11 - No Cached
  • His repeated emphasis on the theme of corruptive wealth—present even in the notes for the unfinished parts of The Last Tycoon—and his depiction of the melancholy implications in the dream of the social aspirer—these represent the core of his commentary on our experience.
  • Connor P on 24 Oct 11
     
    this quote discusses the american dream and how fitzgerald but emphasis on its corruption to show the time period. it shows how people try to grow socially but then cannot reach their goals
