The Misogyny Of Artist As A Young Man
1,865 words
The Misogyny of the Artist as a Young Man In most
novels there are always certain aspects of the
protagonist's life that serve as the basis from
which the character is motivated to create or to
encounter particular events. Often times these
motivations are the key that the protagonist needs
in order to realize their meaning in life and
where their destinations lie. James Joyce cleverly
uses the presence and appeal of women in his novel
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man to allow
his protago...

Rose For Emily Emily Grierson
1,250 words
A Rose For Emily was written by William Faulkner
in 1931. Not only is this story sad, and in the
end a bit horrific, but it appears to be somewhat
autobiographical. It is written with a certain
first-hand knowledge. There appears to be a direct
link between Emily and the author, not the
narrator, but the author, William Faulkner. Some
indications of this relationship can be found in
the characters and the setting. Mr. Faulkner
seemed to be at a low point in his life when he
wrote this short stor...

African American Experience Weary Blues

One distinctive mark of the great writing of the
Harlem Renaissance includes the development of a
creative voice that both explains Black history
and pain and transforms this explanation into High
art, despite its association with Low people. Some
writers, such as Langston Hughes, attempt this
transformation by seeking to elevate the sense of
crudeness associated with blackness. In many ways,
Hughes sets the standard for this distinctive
mark: his writing consistently exhibits a voice

Niccolo Machiavelli was born on May 3, 1469, in
Florence, Italy. He eventually became a man who
lived his life for politics and patriotism. Right
now, however, he is associated with corrupt,
totalitarian government. The reason for this is a
small pamphlet he wrote called The Prince to gain
influence with the ruling Medici family in
Florence. The political genius of Niccolo
Machiavelli was overshadowed by the reputation
that was unfairly given to him because of a
