On “The Marrow of Tradition” As “The Marrow of Tradition” hurtles towards its conclusion, its author, Charles Chesnutt, has two of its main characters – the half-sisters Mrs. Carteret and Mrs. Miller – stand “face to face” for the very first time. Both characters are devastated, inconsolable; indeed, the very air between the pair seems heavy, suffused as it is with a heady amalgam of private and public tragedy. It seems almost fitting, after what has just happened (in the narrative), that the two should meet for the first time in so wretched a manner, with each sister functioning as a stand-in for her entire race and mortal potential, or promise – “the body of the dead child” – rotting in the space between them. It is interesting to note that it is specifically “the stress of the deepest emotions” that brings these “two children of the same father” – these two warring races – together at long last; on the one hand, the initial divide suggests a sense of innate (human) baseness, but the fact that the “resemblance between” Mrs. Carteret and Mrs. Miller becomes “even more striking” under the stress of such primal emotions in turn suggests a sense of innate (human) sameness. It is likewise interesting that Chesnutt chooses to use the adjective “striking” to describe their resemblance at all; the adjective certainly denotes a sense of conspicuousness, but it also denotes a sense of violence. (The adjective “striking,” curiously enough, also denotes beauty. Who – or what – could…

risk at having another University of Austin or Virginia Tech incident. Supporters of the open carry argue that in the case of an active shooter on campus the students and faculty armed with a permit to carry a handgun can protect the lives of many. Which is true to an extent, but many shooters are normally not only armed with assault weapons but also an array of mental issues and internal problems. In the view of this, I’ve started my research on the topic question of does having armed students…

all the players in the U.S. open at a dinner held at the club. This tests Francis because most of them don’t like armatures and don’t think he should be able to play in the open. They look below him because he is in the working class and doesn’t have much money. Francis does try to put on a fake personification of him to others but they can see right though him and they know the truth. This is a test for Francis to see if he can handle the pressure. He meets one girl Sara who he tries to impress…

I am becoming better at open-ended questions. I noticed that I would ask more close-ended questions while doing intakes instead of having a conversation with the clients and now I am much better at shifting away from closed-ended questions. I noticed that in the initial intervention I only asked one closed-ended question and none in the alternative statements. I also noticed that I am better at having more of a conversation-based intake with clients at my practicum site, just by rewording the…

stand six inches tall. The Lilliputians are governed by an emperor. There government system is really dysfunctional, because they go against each other. Towards the end of the story my impression does not change and I realize that the Lilliputians are just as corrupt and tricky as anyone else in this story. Even though they stand only six inches they still posses attributes of a full grown men. Being capable to control Gulliver's every move. Minus being short they still have power, for…

is different depending on the questions asked and the text type, and the differences in comprehension can be down too background knowledge and word recognition (Eason et al., 2012). Both learning to be literate and learning to talk have similar attributes, however, they are not the same (Medwell et al., 2007). Research shows how teachers do most of the talking within the classroom and pupils do not have the chance to improve on their speaking skills (Grigg, 2010). This means that children do…

Rosellini’s Portrayal of Marina as Everywoman, Ingrid As A Wicked Temptress, In Rome, Open City Roberto Rossellini’s neorealist film, Rome Open City, is reflective of the turbulent climate in Italy during Nazi and Fascist occupation in World War II. His use of costuming, body language, and mirror shots give rise to a tongue-in-cheek reflection at all the difficult moral and economic sacrifices people had to make during the war. Rossellini not only makes Marina and Ingrid, but also his…

For this article, it analyzes both Jack London’s “What Life Means to Me” and Stephen Crane’s “The Open Boat.” Utilizing these two stories in light of the fact that both Jack London and Stephen Crane are legitimate naturalist essayists who show the thought of naturalism in two exceptionally unfavorable strategies.
