    Throughout reading The Things They Carried, my understanding of particular literary theories has vastly increased. The main lenses in which my group used to interpret the novel was feminist, psychoanalytical, and postmodernism. During the first block, it was more difficult to determine which lens to look through, and a lot of thought had to be put in when reading the block as a whole. But, as the book progressed, I began to pick up on particular instances and immediately recognized which literary lens it belonged to. Therefore, during our groups reading of the block as a whole, it was much easier to read it through a specific lens.…

    In the play “A Raisin in the Sun” the author, Lorraine Hansberry, has incorporated examples of all 3 I’s of oppression. The three I’s of oppression are interpersonal, institutional, and internalized. Institutional oppression happens when one group has more power than another group and our institutions (government, schools, media..) favor the more powerful group. One example of institutional oppression in the play was when the organization tried to tell them that they couldn’t live there because they were black. On page 140 it says, “ As I say, that for the happiness of all concerned that our Negro families are happier when they live in their own communities”.…

    5 There are many different factors that determine what makes a person who they are. One of the most crucial factors comes from things that have happened in their past. Although these effects from the past can come not only from one’s personal past, but also from their family’s or race’s past. William Faulkner, Tennessee Williams, and Ralph Ellison are all excellent examples of authors who utilize their characters’ pasts to develop substance. The past plays a huge role everyone’s lives and authors often use character backstories in their works in order to give readers a better understanding of why someone is the way they are or behaves the way they do.…

    Words are constant let downs. The right ones escape ones mind when they are needed and even if eloquently stated, a person’s true beliefs are never one hundred percent accurately divulged to another. Even in literary analysis essays (such as this one) it is difficult to choose the right words to convey critical thoughts. In Light in August (and in the real world) this inaccuracy creates disconnect and makes it so that people can never truly know anything for fact. This is especially evident concerning what society “knows” about Byron Bunch.…
