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 ...

Three Scaffold Scenes Progression Of Dimmesdale
783 words
In The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne
portrays Arthur Dimmesdale as a troubled
individual. In him lies the central conflict of
the book. Dimmesdale's soul is torn between two
opposing forces: his heart, his love for freedom
and his passion for Hester Prynne, and his head,

fleshly love. He has committed the sin of adultery
but cannot seek divine forgiveness, believing as
the Puritans did that sinners received no grace.
His dilemma, his struggle t...

Began To Realize Emily Dickinson
2,267 words
19 th Century North American Writing To find out
about female sexuality in the Scarlet Letter was
not an easy task. The history of female sexuality
remains for the most part terra incognito. Only in
the last century or so have women themselves
openly discussed their sexuality in ways that are
accessible to historians. Another problem has been
that for most of human history, the written word
has been largely a male preserve, so women are
almost always perceived through the distorting
lens of men....

Nathaniel Hawthorne The Scarlet Letter Hester Prynne
1,784 words
The Scarlet Letter Before disclosing his notions
and beliefs on national morality, Hawthorne begins
his story, The Scarlet Letter, with a discussion
of the Puritan state of Salem set in the 1600 's.
It is often problematic to discern Hawthorne's
views about Puritanism due to his ambiguity. He
reveres the Puritan conviction and their ability
to conform to the controls of their faith.
However, he condemns them for the bigotry and
utter intolerance they show for opposing
viewpoints and perspectives...
