Invisible Man Chapter 11

never really told what is happening to the
narrator. All the reader knows for certain is that
the narrator is in some sort of factory hospital.
Throughout the chapter Ellison constantly uses
imagery that refers to birth. Ellison s reason for
using all of this imagery is fairly clear. He is
trying to show that the narrator is changing,
being reborn. After reading the chapter one can
get a sense that t...

poem is about the Epiphany and was created the
very year of Eliot s conversion to Christianity
(Fleisner, 66). Therefore the theme of religion is

Paul describes the rebirth of the world upon
Christ s death, emphasising the Ephesians new life
(2: 4 - 5). This theme of death and rebirth is
present in the poem Journey of the Magi, which, I
will argue, is ...
