In Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s, “The Yellow Wallpaper”, being a woman not allowed to have a voice, forced to overcome her sickness with the “resting cure” brings forth the hysteria she suffers with.

The author of the novel also had previous failed suicide attempts. One of Plath’s attempt to end her life mirrors the way the protagonist Esther almost identically. They both overdosed on sleeping pills and passed out in their mother’s crawl space for three days.

Because the scene is so similar to the one that the author faces it gives the book a more macabre feel to it.…
The book of Esther has a more profound meaning than that of a young girl who becomes queen. The story shows a brave young girl who is willing to sacrifice her life to save her people, from what seems an inevitable genocide. As a result of the book of Esther’s complexity I will use summary, irony, and compare and contrast to further understand the selection of Esther (Esther 2:1-18) and the ruin of Haman as Mordecai rises to power (Esther 6:1-13). Aside from the three tools I will be using, the 3 world mythology is also significant in trying to understand the two scenes in the book of Esther. The significant of both scenes and of the rest of the book of Esther lies in the belief that God has a purpose as well as his presence in our everyday…
“The Passion According to G.H.,” by Clarice Lispector was a very exiting reading because it oddly portrayed spiritual rebirth. The small act of squashing a cockroach strangely crashes the story’s narrator and leads her into a waterfall of profound thoughts. The story is centered on the life of a narrator, who is only identified G. H. She basically just sits in her servant’s room and has these bizarre, inevitable thoughts. It is though that G.H.’s entire life is very structured, planned, and well-organized.…

In their article, “Seeing through The Bell Jar: Investigating Linguistic Patterns of Psychological Disorder,” Daniel Hunt and Ronald Carter argue that The Bell Jar does not only show the classic signs of mental illness through Esther’s behavior, such as “lack of interest in…
