The Man In The High Castle Analysis

Improved Essays
In today’s society females are considered as nothing but beautiful creatures filled with mixed emotions who attention spans are off the charts. Females are always needy and cautious of what goes around their surroundings. In the book “The Man In The High Castle” by Philip K.Dick, Juliana Frink is the girl that every man has dreamed of, and is filled with mixed emotions. Men tend to find her attractive due to her Mona Lisa smile but her attitude and quick temper can sometimes find her difficult to deal with. Juliana’s adventure throughout the story fits into the story circle perfectly. In the story, “The Man In The High Castle” Juliana Frink is the former wife of Frank Frink. She moves to the Rocky Mountains states after leaving Frank. Then, …show more content…
Mr.Abendsen even appreciated and thanked her for making him aware of the situation and how she saved him from Joe getting to him and killing him. Juliana knew this was a time where she had to take action into her own hands which is why I consider her as a hero. Although at the end of the book, when Mrs.Abendsen was talking to Juliana, she wasn't as thrilled as Juliana was Mrs.Abendsen stated “If you saved Hawthorne's life it’s dreadful of me, but I’m so upset;I can't take it all in, what you’ve said and Hawthorne has said” (Dick 274). I feel that Mrs.Abendsen was not appreciative to what Juliana did for Hawthorne. Juliana helped him from losing her husband and she had a nerve to act like Juliana was lying when she was only trying to help. I do not agree with how Mrs.Abendsen acted towards Juliana. I feel she was jealous because she thought Juliana wanted something other than just to save Hawthorne from the Nazi’s. In conclusion, Juliana is a beautiful woman and despite her crazy mixed emotions and wanting so much for herself, she did the

    Everyone knows that some people are dealt a better card than others, however often times it doesn 't matter what deck of cards one is dealt, rather how they use them. Usually the harsher deck of cards result in creating a stronger person, mostly because of the obstacles that are formed from this.

    Robert Penn Warren All the Kings' Men portrays the rise of Willie Stark from poverty to governor with the help of his right hand man Jack Burden. For a better analysis on how to do the right thing in politics through Willie Stark, Thomas Aquinas and Niccol'o Machiavelli provide sufficient evidence to support his methods of leadership. When Machiavelli stated, "Ascent to princely power by some criminal or evil conduct; and the rise of a private citizen to supreme authority in his land through choice of his fellow citizens" (Machiavelli 25), relates to how Willie Stark shows us how the political process works and what it takes to obtain power despite his personal life infidelities. Stark went by the motto his way or the highway as he used his power to make his enemies submit to his demands, which is a form of Machiavellism where all morality has been set aside, but still does the right thing by the people as he makes them his first priority. Jack Burden being the protagonist and second in command to Willie Stark does help us understand how politics worked and has continued in the same way, but does not provide adequate…

    For whatever reason, writers tend to categorize female characters more strictly than they do male characters. Generally using the “Big 8” archetypes, women are placed into confining molds with little to no room for variation. Whether they play the role of the sweet, virginal Innocent or the plain and wise Sage, women, especially when written by male authors, rarely exhibit the same complex personalities as their male counterparts. Even worse, authors sometimes pervert these archetypes, exaggerating the worst qualities of each, as seen in Ken Kesey’s One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.…

    The roles of women reflected in the late nineteenth century up until the 1960’s were known to be portrayals of the perfect housewife or of one who lacked status. Jamaica Kincaid’s “Girl” and Kate Chopin’s “The Story of an Hour” both represent the gender role that was expected of woman in their time period and their restrictions to having their own identity. Mrs. Mallard and Girl are similar because they both lack their own true identity and have expectations from others as to how they should act and who they should be. A common theme shown in both stories is repression.…

    In literature, the role and function of women varies depending on the author. Particularly in the past, there were playwrights who portrayed women as frail, passive figures to be only used as pawns for mistreatment from men. We can see this portrayal in William Shakespeare’s, Hamlet, as well as Arthur Miller’s, Death of a Salesman. The female characters in these two plays are to be considered as two-dimensional characters that only serve to help develop their male counterparts character. However, a closer study reveals that the true roles these female characters took on had purpose; for some, they were the most prominent characters of the play.…

    The Relationship of Gender and Vocation in the 19th century novel Women and men in 19th century society occupied separate spheres since it was believed that the sexes have different physical and mental characteristics. Men belonged in the outside world or the public sphere, “where they could use their capacity for logical thought to best effect” (Rowbotham). Women, on the other hand, according to Rowbotham, were expected to belong to “the more passive, private sphere of the household and home where their inborn emotional talents would serve them best”. Physicians and anthropologists justified this division further by saying that if women were to mentally exert themselves like men, “women would divert the supply of blood and phosphates from…

    In DreamWorks’ 1998 animated film, The Prince of Egypt, viewers are introduced to Moses, a young man filled with life, vibrancy, and mischief. His life was preordained by God to lead his people - the Israelites - out of captivity and into the Promised Land. This modern Midrash not only revitalizes the story of Moses, but changes its original purpose. By comparing and contrasting the DreamWorks version of Moses’ youth and exit from Egypt to Midian to that of the biblical story and scholarly commentary, it is revealed that the purpose of The Prince of Egypt is to emphasize social change and justice.…
