The Psychological Message Of Catcher In Rye
1,034 wordsThe Psychological Message of J. D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye A novel, like a movie, is a form of entertainment; however, some novels do a great deal more than entertain. Some pack an emphatic psychological message. An illustration of such a publication is Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. In addition, Ken Kaseys One Flew Over the Cookies Nest is a narrative with a comparable central theme. J. D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye is yet another instance of a story with an i...

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...

Throughout the poem, the people must depend on the loyalty and generosity of Beowulf and his warriors to defend them from evil. Society as described in Beowulf, was a very warlike society therefore, if Beowulf and his warriors were not giving of themselves in order to protect their people, the end result might have be...

Comedy And The Power Of Human Spirit
756 wordsPaving the way, comedy traditionally deals with the efforts of individuals to survive and create a new and better world or at least one that is better than the reality the character find themselves in if only for a short period of time. In this way this genre seems to be a means of dealing with both human suffering and failure. This fact is found present in the works of Aristophanes, Voltaire and Altman dealing with a general theme of survival and creativity in their humor. In the light that the...

Humphrey Bogart Woody Allen
1,542 words... s hard to detect and yet the whole movie is based on it. It is the mystical fact that an actor's performance in a film, with his personality and voice, has a life completely independent of the actor's own personality and voice that gave it being (Kauffmann 38). This is true with no other art except TV, which is basically film itself. The idea of a character rebelling against and threatening his creator, who is himself identical in every physical way, is more appalling than any other science ...

Wanted To Show Handmaids Tale
1,324 wordsSome critics say that The Handmaids Tale is a pure Science Fiction with little or no relevance to the actual society. Margaret Atwood wanted to show a way of how far contemporary errors lead to. Actually she took facts from today (the book was written in 1986), and imagine how could become society if people do not do anything to arrange lifes quality. Moving, vivid and terrifying, I only hope its not prophetic, as Conor Cruise OBrien, from The Listener. This fear is almost easy to understand bec...

John Updike Rabbit Run
716 wordsWhile roaming through different John Updike stories, I found styles of writing that varied within each one. A typical Updike character was self-absorbed and guilt ridden (Disc. Authors Pg. ). One of these stories I read was the Witches of East wick. In this novel, I realized it was a high spirited comedy. The romance along with the evil involved made it a well-written fable. When career thinking came up for John Updike he could not make the decision on his future plans for life (Thompson 976). W...

Chopin Vs Poe A Wifes Death
899 wordsIt is common for two short stories to have a similar portion of their plots. How the author presents that particular component of the story will vary each and every time. This will result in a different effect on the reader for every story. The Kate Chopin story immediately starts with some very obvious foreshadowing of what is to come. The first line of the story says Knowing that Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with a heart trouble, great care was taken to break to her as gently as possible the new...

Farewell To Arms Morals And Values
847 wordsIt is noted that the great American novelist, Ernest Hemingway's, male heroes usually were defined by their ability to face adversity with quiet strength. Most of the characters are displayed as violent and tough men who live in the harsh worlds which they inhabit. They live by a code of honor, which is why they are viewed as the heroes throughout the novel. In his novel, A Farewell to Arms, the characters experience "the chaotic and brutal world of war" (Warren 35). Ernest Hemingway had written...

Frankenstein Shelley Use Of And Feminine Roles

Whilst the feminine roles are flat and manipulated to affect the character and actions of the male roles, the latter are considerably more defined. As Elizabeth Fay writes, Shelley shows the realistic weaknesses and frailties of men in the novel. Walton is presented as sexist and selfish, mocking his sisters fears for his safety in his opening sentence: ...

Murder King Duncan Lost And Won

The use of the supernatural in the witches, the visions, the ghost and the apparitions provides the backbone of the climax and "excuses" for Macbeth's change of character. Because conscience plays such a central role in Macbeth's tragic struggle, many critics use spiritual and supernatural theories to illuminate the dramas character development. The play opens with the use of the supernatural when three witches encou...

Omaha Beach Dark Side
948 wordsWhen I watch this movie, I think of a game of chess. Each team is a different color, like the different nations fighting against each other. With each skilled move, you have to take a chance, but regardless you are going to lose some of your teammates. Just like war, there can be only one winner. In the first scene, the first soldiers to get off the boat get killed, and these would be considered the pawns. In the game of chess, each team has two rows. The first rows are the pawns, the first to d...
