Frost writes of "two roads diverged in a wood, and
I-/ I took the one less traveled by/And that has
made all the difference" ("The Road Not Taken"),
he demonstrates the realization of both writers
and the hoi-polloi that following the accepted
path of society not always directs an individual
in the proper direction. While few people would
disagree with the principle, most do not concede
to the action. Since such moral conflicts
continuously plagu...

Huckleberry Finn A Racist Novel? There is a major
argument among literary critics whether
Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain, is or is not a
racist novel. The question boils down to the
depiction of Jim, the black slave, and to the way
he is treated by Huck and other characters. The
use of the word nigger is also a point raised by
some critics, who feel that Twain uses the word
too much and too loosely. Mark Twain never
presents Jim in a negative light. He does not show
Jim as a drunkard, as a mean...
