Winifred Analysis

Superior Essays
Gangly, analytical, and predominantly unappealing, Winifred was the astonishingly disparate sibling of the Corradetti household. Having grown up in an unapologetically hubristic household with geniuses and troublemakers dissimulated as siblings, Winnie indulged in the grand art of evanescent into her bedroom and formulated her prescribed persona of the flexible prick within the comfort of her own flustered mess. Near silent and misconstrue as charming, she takes the path of least resistance in most instances, opting to sideline in the arguments that stir up between the other members of his family by the moment and eschew stirring the pot at virtually all costs. Her twin brother would call her spineless, while she insisted on the term nuanced. Unless directly …show more content…
.All chemists work with simple forms of matter to either reach a greater understanding of the chemical itself, uncover the elements of unfamiliar substances or create entirely new chemical compounds for use in a variety of applications, which seemed to be the case with Winnie. Volumes of composition notebooks scribbled with illegible notes only she could comprehend, she believed that she was destined for greatness with her work. Chemists typically specialize in one of the sub-disciplines, but Winifred pursued neurochemistry, theoretical chemistry, nuclear chemistry, and biochemistry. She wished to be versatile chemist, but had a particular attraction to bio and nuclear chemistry. Idolizing Marie Curie and Albert Einstein, she dreamed to obtain a Nobel prize like her heroes and wished to do them proud. Often, it can seem as though she’s oblivious to the world around him, but his observation is a quiet and incessant one, cataloging bits of everything whether she wants to recollect them or not. Keen-eyed and detail-oriented. She misses meager. Misconstrue for shy, she’s merely taciturn. Reticent. Unforthcoming.

    Hope Jahren begins her memoir by stating that we are all scientists as long as we ask questions. She states that it’s not nearly as involved as people make it out to be and we don’t need to study math, physics, or chemistry to be great scientists. She explains the importance of being curious and then begins her life’s journey. This is not a book that I would pick up to read for fun, but it was quite educational and fascinating. Hope Jahren’s journey to becoming a scientist starts from gaining interest in her father’s lab and planting a garden with her mother.…

    In conclusion, Brenda Maddox presents a complete, detailed, and equitable story of Rosalind's life and her role in the discovery of the structure of DNA. She was a very intelligent scientist. The book gives a good picture of a strong human being. The book makes the reader see that she was mistreated and the unfairness that Rosalind Franklin wasn’t adequately recognized for her contributions, all of what she did not only the two years at Kings.

    “Science is not a body of facts. Science is a state of mind” (Angier 490). Both essays, “The Canon” by Natalie Angier and “Scientific Literacy and the Habit of Discourse” by Thomas W. Martin, discuss that science is not a set of facts to be learned, but is best practiced through actions. These two articles approach the topic differently by using different rhetorical modes and styles. Even though the article’s main points have similarities, the essays contain many differences through their rhetorical modes, approaches, and writing styles.…

    Throughout history the matriarch of the family and her relationship with other family members have played a large role in the direction of the family. Such a principle is exhibited in Flannery O'Connor's short stories; O'Connor's utilization of the matriarchs and their relationships with other characters helps to more thoroughly develop all characters within the plot. O’Connor’s usage of the Grandmother to develop characters in "A Good Man is Hard to Find" is much more effective than her usage of Mrs. Hopewell in "Good Country People" due to better overall characterization of the matriarch, juxtaposition of the antagonist's personality in regard to the matriarch's personality, and emphasis of the negative effects caused by the oppressive nature of the matriarch. The matriarchs in both stories are characterized primarily by, and are highly similar in, their superiority complexes, hypocritical personalities, and relationship statuses; whereas they differ in their means of oppressing their way…

    Through the framework of cognitive theory one could say that Krissy’s internal turmoil over leaving Dorian stemmed from a cognitive distortion that a wife was required to submit to her husband. Krissy’s development of this maladaptive thought process on the ideal relationship between husband and wife started in her early childhood. Linda Dynel stated that her grandfather asserted that women were designed to play the role of either the showpiece or servant. This explanation of a woman’s purpose conveys the message that women exists solely to submit to their husbands will. Krissy also faced cognitive deficits by limited exposure to healthy relationships by her parents.…

    The prose from ‘Don’t Let’s Go To The Dogs Tonight’ by Alexandra Fuller is full of imagery that makes the reader understand the characters better, as well as the situation that the characters are in. The author uses eloquent language to support the imagery in the text. Her usage of language helps us get a broader view of what the characters are like and how these characters form a family, we also get a perspective of the business that this family is working in and how they are in a way discriminated by looks, a farmer differing from a buyer. And how the tobacco business is hard from the perspective of the farmers. The three major things that I have noticed while reading this prose was that there is a great amount of imagery, the characters…

    In this passage from The Great Influenza, by John M. Barry, the use of figurative language, imagery, anaphora and parallelism, symbolism and exclusionary tone words to characterize scientific research as a dynamic, tedious, and calculated field of study that requires a variety of personality traits including curiosity, patience, and creativity. Moreover, uncertainty is identified as a central theme and elaborated on as being a necessary part to the process of scientific experimentation. Throughout this essay, Barry uses figurative language, such as extended metaphor, to downplay the severity of decisions that scientists face. For instance, “Would a pick be best, or would dynamite work better- or would dynamite be too indiscriminately destructive?”…

    In the mid-19th century, a young child by the named of Henry Augustus Rowland was developing his own desires for fundamental research. These ambitions were fueled by the complications he faced as a result of his religious family. Employing his adversity, Rowland later advanced to become a renowned scientist to revolutionize not only the design of spectroscopy but also the perception of scientific research in the late 19th century. He redirected his suppressions of the world to further develop this study of “pure science,” the understanding that science should focus on research for the advancement of knowledge. This concept of science had been forgotten and masked by the working world of the 19th century.…

    Wulf and Eadwacer: They are One One of the most intriguing mysteries about “Wulf and Eadwacer” is whether or not it is designed to portray a specific plot and a fixed set of characters or is it created to have numerous scenarios derived by its audience. Found in the Exeter Book preceding a section of riddles has led many scholars to believe that this poem’s anonymous author intends for it to have a ”cryptic quality” and be ambiguous (Jones 373). Several varied interpretations of the plot include an adulteress woman longing for her lover, a mother mourning the loss of her son, a woman longing for the return of her husband or lover, and a canine love story, but they all must make unsubstantiated assumptions about the original text to fit their…

    Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm was popularly known as the “Grimms Brothers”, were characterized as one of the most dramatic writers in the 19th century. They were categorized by their short, simple sentences, colloquial language, and their well-organized approach to craft writings. Their writing was entitled Little Snow White, it was released in 1937 and it was about Snow White, a princess who falls into a deep, death-like rest after taking a bite from a poisoned apple. My impression about this narrative was an innocent little girl who had her step-mother hating her because of her beauty and kind-heart. The Little Snow-White by the Grimms Brothers is a fairy tale that reveals the goodness and the beauty of a little princess who is loved by all, however,…
