Child Of The City Bigger
1,194 wordsIn Native Son, Wright employs Naturalistic ideology and imagery, creating the character of Bigger Thomas, who seems to be composed of a mass of disruptive emotions rather than a rational mind joined by a soul.

Heavier Than Air Craft Heavier Than Air 1903
725 wordsAlthough the 1902 flyer was the first truly-effective heavier-than-air craft, it didnt have a propulsion system, and so counts only as a glider, not as an airplane. The problem for the Wrights in 1903 was to develop a powered machine. They had to make one more breakthrough to be successful here: understand how propellers work. This was harder than it seems, as no one really understood that a propeller was nothing more than a wing that rotates on its axis, and lifts the plane forward. So, the Wri...
