I just got done with an interview with a great Roman gladiator. The gladiator that I was interviewing was a gladiator call Doctoray he was the first to go against Theokoles. I asked what type of weapon he used because there are so many types like a net a pitch fork two swords or one sword. Then we started talking about Spartacus and he was a Thracian and they are not the most liked kind of tribe and the gladiator school in Capua Pompeii that is were he learned how to fight like a champion…

The Things They Carried, written by Tim O’Brien, tells the story of a platoon in the Vietnam War. O’Brien uses many literary devices to help him portray the overall theme including repetition, details, and through emphasizing the reasons the soldiers are a part of the war.

Tim O’Brien is talking to chaplain Edwards about how he is stuck between “a desire to be good, and also, underneath, a desire to prove myself a hero” (O’Brien 62). Once O’Brien is done talking to chaplain Edwards about how he thinks “the war is wrong.…
