    Little Critter Analysis

    Molly Bang Paper When thinking of this assignment, I immediately knew which book I was going to choose. I felt that choosing a favorite book from my childhood could be a fun way to see the differences in how I viewed it then, and how I might view it today. As a child, I was in love with Mercer Mayer’s “Little Critter” books (and still am today). I decided not to go searching for an easy or popular book, rather I wanted to take one I know and love and see if/how Molly Bang’s principles were applied.…

    One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest Isolation Analysis

    Isolation, by prohibiting the development of an individual’s perception of reality, harms one’s ability to mediate emotions and distorts their view of rationality. The main disadvantage of isolation: the loss of expression with society. Interaction with others creates a sense of belonging, intimacy and support for an individual. Without the imperative social skills, one’s decisions would be inane, and they’d be incapable of expedient reasoning. Throughout Golding’s…

    Introspection In An Elephant Crackup By Charles Siebert

    Humans have the great ability to mediate any of their own actions, which in turn allows them to think greatly about how they act and treat others, while formulating an internal debate of whether their actions are commendable or poor. Introspection is an imperative for humans to have the proper view and respect for other individuals, including those of a different species. It allows us to look at our actions towards others and trade places with others to see if how it would feel to be in their place using our own feelings and experience. If in a conflict, then this method can justify whether or not a correct decision was made so that it would not negatively one’s self or another. Without using this feature we cannot understand the plights…

    Lord Of The Flies Rhetorical Analysis

    In William Golding's Lord of the Flies, a group of young boys whose plane is shot down on an island form their own government and civilized way of life while they await rescue. However, devising their own society proves to be difficult without adults to guide them. The boys refer to adults often as they try to survive on the island, and pathos is especially evident when the absence of “grownups” is noted. Golding elicits pathos when mentioning adults to suggest that the boys are not emotionally or cognitively mature enough to deal with difficult issues. When Ralph and Piggy first establish that there are no adults, Piggy is panicked that young boys would be all alone on an island.…
