Gawain and Binary Opposition As a contemporary
American reader, it is all right to assume that
the first scene in which the particular character
is involved drastically shapes our opinion of
characters in a particular novel or poem.
Immediately we jump to conclusions about what is
right and what is wrong, who is the good guy and
who is the bad guy. In fact, once we get an
initial impression from a character, it is
unlikely that this opinion will change as we
continue to read on, unless of course...

Rabbit Was Too Sharp Sharp For Mr Stories

stories such as How Mr. Rabbit was too sharp for
Mr. Fox were told first hand through a black
character, Uncle Remus. This way of writing made
more of an impression on readers than a story
wrote about blacks. This way, all people could
read the stories without b...
