In the short story,“The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” by Washington Irving, Katrina Van Tassel must choose a husband. I, Ichabod Crane am the one Katrina should marry. Katrina deserves a husband who supports the family with a well paid job and a great love for children. I am a school master and I am highly respected by the pupils I teach and their family. I believe the golden rule, spare the rod and spoil the child is a very important one to follow for “[I] was not one of those cruel rulers of the…

During the journey back home, Ichabod encounters a Headless Horseman, the legendary ghost who was said to be a Hessian soldier in the Revolutionary War.

Evil is understood as the force in nature that oversees and provides a rise to wickedness. Evil is a very difficult subject that many consider displeasing, however, evidence from the stories, “ Young Goodman Brown,”,“ The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” and, “ The Devil and Tom Walker,” shows that evil does exist; and has existed since the beginning of time. By reading these three stories the themes of Good vs Evil, “Young Goodman Brown,” greed and gluttony in, “ The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” and…

tale goes. However, if like me you are only a fan of Bones, then you will be pleased to know that this can be viewed as a complete standalone episode, the case is tied up for the Jeffersonian team when the end credits roll in a satisfying manner. Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) and Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie) are introduced smoothly, slotting into the story in much the same way as any…

In the beginning of this scene it shows a close up of Ichabod looking at the chaotic state that the people in the church are in.

What do a cat and a headless horse man have in common? The world may never know. But, the world will know how the two stories by Edgar Allan Poe and Washington Irving are incredibly different but also very similar. “The Black Cat” by Edgar Allan Poe and “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” by Washington Irving share many aspects of romanticism; these include the importance of nature, supernatural events, and a sense of individualism. Although these similarities are present the stories are very…

Poe’s writings we can clearly see men who were concerned with their needs and desires above anyone else. In the story of “The Legend of Sleepy Hallow,” we read about a schoolmaster by the name of Ichabod Crane who spent his time drifting from neighbor to neighbor for his shelter and food. One day, Ichabod set his sights on the inheritance of a young…

The character under scrutinization is rather Ichabod’s rival, Brom Bones. Brom Bones is a muscular, jock-like type male who is the rival candidate of Ichabod for Katrina Van Tassel’s hand in marriage (Paragraphs 27-28). The way Brom Bones is a stereotypical jock and only wants Katrina’s hand in marriage for her father’s wealth is why this character adds to the stacking pile of evidence against Washington…
