for conflict will arise from cultural, or civilizational, differences. Samuel Huntington’s hypothesis that “the great divisions among humankind and the dominating source of conflict will be cultural” is one that I have considered (Huntington, 1993, p. 1).

Marisa Tolmich Ms. Shubitz World Lit Honors October 14, 2015 Clash of Cultures The clash of cultures is unquestionably one of the most general themes seen in literature.

“The Outsider” a short story in “The Lurking Fear” by H.P. Lovecraft. It is a simple story on the surface but it can be thought provoking if you read deeper.

The writer’s descriptions are so vivid that the reader does not notice the lack of characters. “I know not where I was born, save that the castle was infinitely old and…
