    Saillenfest and Dessalles ask the question, can believable characters act unexpectedly? The Knife Story is provided as an example to further illustrate this question. The story explains that John and Mary are true lovers with growing love, and on a Tuesday breakfast with John, Mary goes to the kitchen, grabs a knife, returns and stabs John in the back. With the short information provided, Mary stabbing John does not make sense, and therefore Mary’s character suffers from lack of believability due to the lack of an explanation, which can restore her intentions and believability. However, despite the deficiency of believability, the story had taken an unexpected, interesting turn in events.…

    Our Language “For others, it is to share and spread also those words that are meaningful to us. But primarily for us all, it is necessary to teach by living and speaking those truths which we believe and know beyond understanding,” from “The Transformation of Silence into Language and Action” by Audre Lorde. Within our society women are viewed with a lower status than men just because of their use of indirect speech. This is mainly due to how children are brought up within their cultures and ultimately society. However in other cultures, indirectness is used by both genders and it does not reflects one’s status.…

The first article I analyzed was “Should Everyone Go to College?” by Stephanie Owen and Isabel Sawhill, where the authors discuss several factors about a traditional four-year university and question whether the benefits outweigh the costs. The other article I analyzed was “The New Liberal Arts” by Sanford J. Ungar, in which Unger tries to promote liberal arts colleges and show how they are more beneficial than traditional four-year universities. Both articles, in a way, were essentially trying…

    The Code of the Street by Elijah Anderson is a theory developed by Anderson himself that demonstrates the explanation of the high rates of violence and the life of inner-city people, mainly African-Americans, living in Philadelphia. In some of the most economically depressed and drug- and crime-ridden pockets of the city, the rules of the civil law have been severely weakened, and in their stead a “code of the street” often holds away (Anderson 9).

When it…
