Hannah Barone Character Analysis

Superior Essays
Emilie Hannah Barone, Barony has always been what her friends called her, at five feet and a little over a hundred pounds, is not unreligious, mentally weak, or indifferent. Not gullible, equal, or even religiously alike. Nor confused, lazy, or rude. She is Jewish. Different. Mentally strong. And no ignorant and selfish person can change her mind about her religion and who she is because that’s who she’s meant to be.
In contrast, I’ve always been a Christian. My mom’s side has always been and got me into it as well. Just because Emilie and I have differences in religion, though, does not mean that we are completely different people. My church baptism and hers at her temple are different by- “You recite a blessing before and after reading the torah which is the more important part than actually reading it.” You do different things at baptisms in different religions which shows how seperate it all is. We do have similarities though and that’s why we became friends and still are to this day. We may disagree on some things, especially in the religion side of culture, but that still doesn’t mean that we can’t be friends and care for one another. I’m glad I’m friends with someone like her because she has such sweet qualities that is very rare to find in most people.
Emilie Barone is a gentle, sweet

    Well known writer, Dave Eggers, in his nonfictional odyssey, Zeitoun, illustrates a muslim man’s struggle with Islamophobia during Hurricane Katrina. Egger’s purpose was to symbolize a turning point for many Muslims in the US, and through the complete governmental collapse following Hurricane Katrina, Muslims were discriminated against like never before, through the retelling of Zeitoun, his wife, Kathy, and other Muslims’ experiences. The theme of Islamophobia is common in Zeitoun and serves as a focal point of religious biases that cause Zeitoun, Kathy, and other Muslims in New Orleans to experience prejudice because of the religious and racial biases of others. The author uses tone to connect with his audience though ethos, pathos, and…

    Susan Glaspell is an American Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright who composed the play “Trifles” in 1916. The play was centered around the death of Mr. Wright who was strangled to death with a rope in his farmhouse. As Mr. Hale, Mr. Peters, and the county attorney seek to find evidence to convict Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters utilize what the men refer to as “trifles” to conduct an investigation while packing necessities to keep Mrs. Wright company while she is in jail. From my interpretation, “Trifles” portrays how women and men utilize their brains in different ways. Men were portrayed as blocking out unrelated information and distractions that could potentially lead to an undiscovered motive to solving the crime.…
