The Second Leviathan Analysis

Decent Essays
The second leviathan was created three generations after, a child by the name of Aron Campbell. He was a smart boy, no doubt, who always ached to discover himself, of his God-given power. Being the Leviathan to master the water body technique, he gained the ability that enabled him to turn his Leviathan form into a pure body of water. But alas, even he couldn't protect himself from the darkness that laid as far as the depth of the ocean, his power slowly becoming something he loathed. All his years of training took a toll on his sanity, the once bright boy becoming certifiably insane. Just as the Leviathan before him, the darkness was once again too much for his human body to bare. Dragging himself to the same cliff Lauren took her life on,

    G. Edward Griffin’s novel, The Creature from Jekyll Island, proposes a conspiracy between the United States government and the central bank of the United States, The Federal Reserve (the Fed). This alleged conspiracy dates back to the establishment of the Fed with the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. The basis of Griffin’s conspiracy is that rather than acting as an emergency line of credit for American banks and a regulator of the money supply, the Fed is a scheme for private bankers to profit off of the National Debt. Prima facie, this conspiracy theory appears to bear some merit. With Griffin’s considered audience, the burden of proof for the establishment of a conspiracy is relatively low.…

    Monsters are not merely fictional creatures that hide in closets, or under beds waiting to pounce on their unsuspecting victims. One could say that human beings have the capability to become monsters. After all, it is the average individual who creates a culture of fear by perpetuating stigmas like: hate and prejudice. It seems as if fear derives solely from the environment in which the monster dwells, which in essence is everyday life. However, people do not just transform into monsters for the fun of it; their transformation is intentional, and that intention is often suppressed by a hidden agenda to manipulate other individuals, or the culture itself.…

    Stories, a form of communication found throughout time and in different cultures of human history, passed down from generations to generations, some telling tales of the past, some teaching important lessons, and some just for entertainment. Needless to say, stories are an important part of human existence. To begin, stories help readers see through the eyes of others and experience what it's like walking in their shoes. For example, when reading “The Indisputable Weight of the Ocean” by Darryl Berger, readers see through the eyes of Edmund, a boy who was brought up and home schooled by his mother, not interacting with other children growing up. In the story, Edmund, a young gentleman from a small seaside town must move to the big city.…

    Literate Arts can be fine for explaining a variety of historical, crucial events. Richard E. Miller, author of The Dark Night of The Soul employs texts to display how the literate arts can be beneficial for emphasizing the importance of historical catastrophic events. Moreover, Miller employed a variety of “how,” and “why” questions and how to respond to them in his writing to the public to engage them in a conversation and question their views on the literate arts. Furthermore, Miller asks questions about historical events that have happened over time and probably impacted billions of civilians, which in my opinion is one thing the literate arts is excellent at describing.…

    I believe in Peter Benchley’s “Beast” that the characters are too laid back. First, I believe this because the boat they are on doesn’t have auto pilot but they slept through the night with no one piloting the boat. As he states, “we go down below and lay through the night.” Which means they didn't really care about the boat and where it went. Second, is because he trust his wife enough to let her drive the boat even though she doesn't have that much experience and drives with her feet.…

    In his personal essay, “Captivity”, Sherman Alexie develops an intriguing view on the complexities of the relationship between Native Americans and European Americans, criticizing Caucasians for hypocrisy and fight for power between the two. His many examples comparing the relations between Whites and Native Americans in his essay, while formidable to producing his argument, are helped significantly by a metaphor presented through the mentioning of Mary Rowlandson, a historical figure who was held captive by Native Americans. Alexie’s argument as to the counter productivity and fear produced as a result of race is brought to light partially through the historical reference to the character Mary Rowlandson, reversing roles where instead of the White person being captive, the Native American is. The introduction of Mary Rowlandson in the piece isn’t until the third section,…

    In his writing, “Monster Culture (Seven Theses)”, Jeffrey Jerome Cohen argues that we no longer live in an age that uses Unified Theory, an age when we realized that history is composed of a multitude of fragments. In this writing, he has bound some fragments together to form a “monstrous body” and pushes his readers to reevaluate their cultural assumptions relating to those specific fragments. In his first thesis, “The Monster’s Body is a Cultural Body” Cohen explains that each monster has a certain culture and follows certain rules. The monsters are typically born within a certain cultural moment.…
