    The Grapes Of Wrath Character Analysis

    Although the salesman who works at the car lot is less intimidating than the cyclops the both have a one eyed character at one point in their journeys . In The Grapes of Wrath when the Joads are looking for a car for their "Road Trip" to California they visit a car lot. In this car lot they meet a one-eyed salesman with low self esteem who despises his boss. Through out their "stay" at the car lot the salesman spends more time complaining, wallowing in self pity and describing his struggles of only having one eye instead of actually doing his job. Eventually Tom has enough of his whining and lectures him, Which leads me to my next comparison; both roles have a good amount of arrogance attached to them.…

    Character Analysis Of Ralph Ellison's 'Battle Royal'

    The short story that I decided to analyze is Ralph Ellison’s Battle Royal. This short story to me implied how in essence, we are not so different from our (black people) slave ancestors. A quote in the story where he says, “I am not ashamed of my grandparents for having been slaves. I am only ashamed of myself for having at one time been ashamed.” This quote epitomized the whole short story for me.…

    To Kill A Mockingbird By Harper Lee: Character Analysis

    Imagine a wagon with wooden wheels, helping a family move across a valley. The wheels have to endure all of the bumps, rocks, mud, and water, yet a family will not move anywhere unless the wheels are on the wagon. This is similar to the idea of empathy that Harper Lee is trying to emphasize through Atticus. In To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee, she keeps proving through Atticus that even though being truly empathetic toward someone less fortunate than you may bring them down in society, standing up for one another could also make a whole society respect one another.…
