Peut Tre Albert Camus
2,337 wordsThe Stranger In The Stranger, Albert Camus portrays Meursault, the book's narrator and main character, as aloof, detached, and unemotional. He is the idealistic existentialist. He does not think much about events or their consequences, nor does he express much feeling in relationships or during emotional times.

Heart Of Darkness Narrative Structure
1,193 wordsHeart of Darkness Critique Critique Period 2 One said once, of Heart of Darkness, that this amazing tale that was not so much told as suggested to me in desolate exclamations, completed in shrugs, in interrupted phrases, in hints ending in deep sighs. This effect was created by the illusions Conrad made through use of diction, style, and narrative structure. A novel critique has a quite complicated task in his analysis of a novel. He is to shed light into the dark corners of the work where the t...

But by the end of the book, the author leaves the reader unclear on who the actual main character of the book is. Pecola Breedlove, altho...

Vice Versa Historical Facts
4,507 wordsEdward Hallett Carrs contribution to the study of Soviet history is widely regarded as highly distinguished.

This is most apparent on the short story, The Lottery, published in 1948, in which author Shirley Jackson writes of a mysterious and barbaric tradition that stems from seemingly ordinary town settings. Coulthard describes the reason of continuing appeal of The lottery is because of its nihilistic undercurrent, and not the surface attack on subservience to custom (The Explicator 226).
