#5 frankenstein sanity vs insanity chaos vs order

shared by Connor P on 16 Feb 12 - No Cached
  • It shares also the sense of crossing lines or boundaries and of otherworldliness. The enormous popularity of the Gothic novel had actually passed by 1816, but the genre, with its emphasis on darkness, madness, the supernatural, and strange passions, has never been fully dead.
  • Connor P on 16 Feb 12
     
    This talks about the theme of sanity vs insanity and chaos vs order. The gothic elements helps make the novel dark and chaotic in which Victor must define because of his responsibility. The helpful gothic elements of madness and darkenss help further these themes

#5 in cold blood isolaton friendship

shared by Connor P on 22 Mar 12 - No Cached
  • Hickock is extroverted, resourceful, and “manly.” “Dick’s literalness,” the reader is told, “his pragmatic approach to every subject,
  • was the primary reason Perry had been attracted to him, for it made Dick seem, compared to himself, so authentically tough, invulnerable, ‘totally masculine.’”
  • Connor P on 22 Mar 12
     
    This shows the fact that Dick is using Perry and he does not truly care about him. Thus he is neglected in his mid adult life which leads to his murder sprees

#5 invisible man control unity

shared by Connor P on 05 Jan 12 - No Cached
  • Ellison seems to suggest that such an establishment of personal identity should be the true aspiration of African Americans;
  • that it is only through the establishment of identity that other progress can be made; and that as long as African Americans allow others to determine their identities, true freedom and equality will be hard to achieve.
  • Connor P on 05 Jan 12
     
    This is the finally realization that helps the reader know the the narator has matured and discovered how to overcme the oppression. He see the controlling his ow destiny and unity are the keys for success

#5 as i lay dying isolaton selfishness

shared by Connor P on 01 Mar 12 - No Cached
  • The burial march to Jefferson tests this family's mettle, repeatedly forcing them to place the common good above their individual concerns. Darl's incarceration, as we have seen, is an instance of the Bundren family's protecting itself by means of sacrificing one of its own individual members
  • Connor P on 01 Mar 12
     
    This refers to the selfish motives of the characters that isolate them on the journey to Jefferson. Because everyone is focused on their goals, no one seems to care about Addie and her burial

#5 jungle poor treatment workers helping others

shared by Connor P on 30 Sep 11 - No Cached
  • He witnesses the greed and corruption in the industry and the deterioration of the lives of many workers. He is also shocked by the unhealthy handling of the meat. The novel presents graphic descriptions of diseased animals and rotting meat being sold to the American public.
  • Connor P on 30 Sep 11
     
    This quote displays the images of the poor treatment of the workers and the consumers during the early 20th century. Not only were the workers repressed, but the bosses did not care about their consumers. As long as they bought the product the bosses did not worry and the lack of the universal theme of helping others is left out

#5 grapes of wrath poor treatment workers

shared by Connor P on 30 Sep 11 - No Cached
  • Steinbeck shows no California cities in the novel, but reveals the contrast between the bountiful fields and the “Hoovervilles,” the temporary camps in which migrant workers are forced to live without adequate water or sanitation in California’s great Central Valley. “There is a crime here that goes beyond denunciation,”
  • Connor P on 30 Sep 11
     
    Steinbeck shows the pain of the people through poor treatment by using dictions such as "denunciation" and "crime". As the tangent is established between the fields and the "Hoovervilles" is seen, it shows the contrast between the lives of the rich and the poor and how poor working conditions affect them

#5 fast food nation consumers

shared by Connor P on 30 Sep 11 - No Cached
  • According to an alternative version, high-pressure marketing promotes junk food that makes everyone fat, resulting from the heartless unloading of unskilled and dangerous work on youthful racial minorities.
  • Connor P on 30 Sep 11
     
    This quote is designed for the consumers, as the businesses show no care for what happens to the people. As long as they provide the profits, the business can let them live unhealthy

#5 nickel and dimed grapes of wrath anger sympathy

shared by Connor P on 03 Oct 11 - No Cached
  • This might mean that Ehrenreich’s calls at the end of the book for workers to rise up, make demands, form unions, and get angry are wasted
  • Connor P on 03 Oct 11
     
    This again shows the connection between Nickel and Dimed and The Grapes of Wrath. Both Steinbeck and Ehrenreich are in favor of evoking the readers passion and having the people try to rise up. By using passion and feelings to motivate the people and display the poor treatment of workers
