Young Goodman Brown Side By Side
1,099 words"Young Goodman Brown" by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a story about revealing true evil and the loss of one man's faith. Nathaniel Hawthorne left "Young Goodman Brown" up for many interpretations. After reading the story a couple of times, one thing became clear to me. What I absorbed from this story was that evil exists in everyone, does not matter how good we may think we are. Things aren't always what they seem. I say this because the people who attended the devil's meetings, were the ones who atte...

Roller Coaster Di Yanni
1,119 wordsEssay on Keats When I have fears In his poem When I have fears (Di Yanni 714), John Keats attempts to put into words the human emotions felt when dealing with death. I believe that Keats wrote this poem to describe the natural order of emotions he went through while thinking of his own fate. The tone of the sonnet takes a roller coaster course throughout the poem from one quatrain to the next. With careful examination one can see that Keats used the first quatrain to describe a state of utter co...

Beauty Of Nature Made All The Difference
1,357 wordsIn Robert Frost ROBERT FROST In most of Robert Frost s poems he speaks of situations occurring in rural settings, as in The Road Not Taken (Di Yanni 513) and The Tuft of Flowers (Di Yanni 667 - 668). These, like most of his poems, are in the style of conversation. Although this helps to make him seem natural, it is not a very effective form in poetry; we do not understand complicated matters naturally. Conversation is the most careless and formless of human utterance; it is spontaneous and unrev...

Francis Macomber Di Yanni
424 wordsNarrative Shift Hemingway s characters often turn to primitive rituals for comfort. (Donaldson, Vol. 13 in Literary Criticism) It is at this primitive point in each character when Hemingway employs a narrative shift or shifting the narrator s description through another characters point of view. In The Short and Happy Life of Francis Macomber by Ernest Hemingway, this strategy both adds and detracts from the story in a number of ways. First, Hemingway utilizes this technique to better the reader...
