    Davis, after speculating Bertrande’s knowledge of her new husband, proceeds to claim that “[by] the time she had received him in her bed, she must have realized the difference; as any wife of Artigat would have agreed, there is no mistaking ‘the touch of the man on the woman’” (Davis, pg. 44). This argument from Davis answers how Bertrande knew of Arnaud’s fraud. However, can Davis really argue this with her faulty source and ignorance of the beginning of the story? The source which Davis uses is titled “Les Recherches de la France”, a book that published a century after the resolution of the trial.…

    Love is Caustic: A Look into the Similarities and Differences of Laustic and Bisclavret Throughout Marie de France’s many lais, she focuses on the many facets of human nature, such as who can be trusted, who will act accordingly to their rank and status in the court, who will be honorable and treat others with respect, and most importantly, who is most deserving of the love of another. By the very definition of the lais, being a love ballad of sorts, this is nothing surprising. What is far more shocking about the works of Marie de France is that she holds nothing back when it comes to the repercussions that her characters experience for their actions. The idea that love can nurture and help one grow is noted by Marie, but the opposite being…

    In much of current day fiction literature, the side perceived as good or just will commonly win in the end. This is an extremely common cliché that plagues much of literature, and is especially especially when the author writes in static scenarios and characters just to progress the plot. In the short story “All the King’s Men” by Kurt Vonnegut there are many instances in which events happen only to progress the plot towards a “happy” ending, such as Pi Ying dying, Colonel Kelly’s son not being executed and there being no official state of war in the first place. When Pi Ying had conveniently set them up for winning, “The small man slumped on the balustrade… Major Barzov struggled with the Chinese girl.…

    “We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools”. In the quote by Martin Luther King Jr., he expresses how trying to stay divided was a foolish idea compared to learning to coexist with one another.

In a more detailed sense, the overall theme of these three texts was that people must learn to coexist with one another, to live as one.…

    The stories "An Adventure in Paris"(NASF. 493) by Guy De Maupassant and "Everyday Use"(NASF. 816) by Alice Walker showcase similar and different ways to present a story through point of view and characters. Both stories have characters that are functional and symbolic to the story. Each of these stories uses both a foil and utilitarian through one character, Dee and Jean Varin, that ultimately changes the protagonist for the better and allows them to see what they have. De Maupassant makes his story a mix of third-person story telling and first-person experience to expose the extremity of a woman's curiosity. Meanwhile, Walker only uses the first person narration, which gives us perspective into the protagonist’s mind.…
