William Faulkner Feel Guilty
1,327 words
William Faulkner's novelette, The Bear, is perhaps
the most widely discussed of all his writings. In
understanding the story, the role of Isaac
Mccaslin should be reviewed and understood since
The Bear is his story. Critics have thoroughly
examined and commented on many different aspects
such as the wilderness theme, the relevance of
chapter four to the rest of the story, and how the
symbolism works. Upon reviewing criticism, you can
discover that several critics share the same
opinion of Isaac ...

People make decisions throughout their everyday
lives whether they are good or bad. Parents make
the decisions for their children. Parents do this
in order for their children to live better lives.
If a parent made decisions that could potentially
hurt their child, they would be considered unfit
parents. Therefore, parents are put in situations
that force them to do what is morally right. The
point being made is that people interpret morals
differently than other people. How can one say
that he /...

Writing Style Good Earth
325 words
Every author has his or her own style of writing.
The way authors use words to create ideas give
them different styles. One interesting writing
style is that of Pearl S Buck, the author of The
Good Earth. Peter Doyle criticizes Buck's writing
style as "almost biblical." Pearl Buck's writing
is also compared to Chinese sagas. I agree with
the criticism because of striking similarities
between them. The Good Earth and the bible are
similar in the way they were written. In The Good
Earth Buck uses ...

The State of Hawaii Hawaii's contemporary
political life is oriented by a distinctive
political culture that is, simultaneously, highly
progressive and like a traditional, Old Boy
dominated, southern American state. The rich
ethnic fabric and dominant political "style" are
inter-woven, each reflecting historical forces.
