Niccolo Machiavelli George Orwell
1,195 words
My focus is upon a piece by Niccolo Machiavelli,
an Italian prince from the renaissance period who
writes "The Morals of a Prince", and in an
opposite vein, an essay by George Orwell, an
English author and enemy of totalitarianism whose
essay is "Politics and the English Language."
Within these essays I have found a similarity in
which Orwell illustrates that 'political writing
becomes the defense of the indefensible, most
political writing is bad, where it is not the
author is usually a rebel w...

The Catcher in the Rye By Christine Cameron
Hypothesis: How does the writer create a
believable main character in Holden? The Catcher
in the Rye by J. D Salinger was first published in
America and Britain in 1951 but the British
version had some minor changes. For example,
certain swear words and slang words were removed.
It was also banned from schools. This made the
book more appealing to me because I wanted to see
what all the controversy was about. On reading the
book, I found it interesting...

uses several different artistic choices in the

point of view of the narrator, the setting, and a
common monotonous sentiment throughout. Poe is
successful in maintaining a "spirit of
perverseness" that is prevalent in most of his
works. The point of view plays a very important
role in influencing the reader's perception of the
story. The first line of th...
