justified by using the cursed of Ham when he made
fun of his father Noahs drunkenness. After hams
son was cursed to be a slave to Shem and Japheths
families, Shem had a son named Cush, which means
black. This story in Genesis 9 is what the
Confederate "Christians" used for keeping blacks

novels, most are not easily interpreted. In order
for a reader to be able to recognize an allusion
they must first understand what an allusion is. An

Old Man W Enormous Wings

By Gabriel Garcia Marquez The fictional tale
entitled A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings is an
intriguing story which is expressed very well in
the title. The story is about just that, an old
man with wings. The only aspect that the title
fails to point out is that he is an angel. I find
the story to be somewhat interesting; however, it
isn't exactly hard to put down. The one thing
about this story that stands out the most, is the
author's use of tone. This is the main aspect of
the story that j...

most of todays modern and more liberal society. It
is rather unfortunate because I believe that the
ability to maintain proper morals and values, or
to instill them into those that are our future
plays an important role in our lives today. In the

their society. It seems that through the years, as
