    “The Defiant Ones and In the Heat of the Night” In the article Draggin’ the Chain, Emma Hamilton and Troy Saxby analyzed the juxtapositions between the two films, The Defiant Ones and In the Heat of the Night. These two movies are placed within the representation of African American stereotypes that can be void and full of historical reality in the same realm. Hamilton and Saxby explain that certain racial stereotypes can empower the African American race, but at the same time further ingrain an obscured, single-minded view of that race to others. “However, these stereotypes do evolve over time in a way that reflects the unique historical conditions and social needs of a particular context” (CP 168).…

    Heather Ostman’s article “The Sun Also Rises” from the Encyclopedia of the American Novel begins with an explanation of the book’s title. The Sun also Rises gets its name from Ecclesiastes, which is also quoted at the beginning of the book along with a quote from Gertrude Stein about the Lost Generation. Ostman notes that the connection of Ecclesiastes hopefulness with Stein’s hopelessness sustain the feeling of meaninglessness and alienation of the characters of the book following the Great War. In The Sun Also Rises as well as other books from the time period, love seems to fail time and time again, as relationships cannot be sustained or produce children. Love seems futile in this era, Ostman points out in this work as well as in T. S. Eliot’s…

    In Susan Wolf’s paper “The Meanings of Lives,” she discusses the qualifications of and the innate human yearning for a meaningful and fulfilling life. The foundation for her argument lies in her three criterion for meaning which include involvement, purpose, and success. She then continues her argument by explaining the opposite of each of these criterion as a stereotypical person. However, Wolf’s assertion suffers from being overly general in that it makes the assumption that all humans have access to the same resources and opportunities to perform the tasks required to be considered meaningful by her standards.…

    It is a very challenging task, to define and explain one’s life philosophies and beliefs on paper. Throughout my tenure on Earth, it has been very difficult for me to convey my motivations and values to other people directly, let alone on paper. Is it feasible for an individual to reveal his essence through one or two examples condensed into 500 words or less? Most of the detailed descriptions, bright imagery, and cultured diction will merely serve to convey an idea. On paper, however, these words are hollow and lack the profoundness of authentic feelings.…

    For whom the Bell Tolls seems to part away from Sun & Farewell in terms of word length and sentence length. Hemingway tended to use longer words and longer sentences in For whom the Bell Tolls than in the early novels. It is obvious that results support critics’ claims about the beginning of change in this novel. If we look at the openings of the three novels; The Sun also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, and For whom the Bell Tolls, it is obvious that, although words are concrete, simple, colloquial, and belong to our common-core vocabulary, they are longer in the third novel. The words are simple in the first two novels, but they are compounds in For whom the Bell Toll.…
