The Green Book In his essay, The Abolition of Man, CS Lewis critiques the state of education the youth of his day, specifically through the example of an elementary textbook by the pseudonym, "The Green Book".

They do this by presenting a waterfall as viewed by two tourists. One tourist described that the waterfall is 'pretty,' meaning that it…

In Pellow and Park’s piece “The Silicon Valley of Dreams (2002),” their main argument entails this idea that the “periphery” of the production work that takes place in Silicon Valley is disproportionally made up of immigrants and women of color. Not only this but they also received less than a living wage, were only hired as temporary workers, and due to the lack of unions, these workers received little to no benefits and were forced to work in hazardous conditions. To support this main idea…

The Controversial Ending of Huckleberry Finn Samuel Clemens published The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in December 1884 under the pseudonym Mark Twain. This novel currently sells around 200,000 copies a year. Perhaps had he been informed it would rise to such popularity, Clemens might have written a more fitting ending.

Throughout the novel Their Eyes Were Watching God, by Zora Neale Hurston, Janie takes on multiple personas based on her relationships, but she is never able to fully reinvent herself. In order for one to become a new person, one must know exactly who they are naturally.

Janie is not victorious in her attempts to begin a new,…

The generation that led groups like the Mattachine was very moderate; they used pseudonyms when discussing their sexuality, they were never confrontational with opponents, and they never began riots or organized large events. After Stonewall, which was led primarily by young adults, the president of the Mattachine Society, Dick Leitsch…

Morals vs. Society and Self In 2016, female writers are not rare. Actually, women authors are very common. As women have gained respect in literature, pseudonyms are no longer needed, to disguise the gender of the author. If Charlotte Bronte published her classic novel Jane Eyre in 2016 oppose to 1847 she would not have had to use the pseudonym Currer Bell. Under the alias, the novel received great reviews since the audience did not know that a woman wrote such a book. Once this was discovered…

Back then the doctors did not really care about keeping the identity of the sample cells anonymous. They didn’t really conceal the fact that they came from Henrietta Lacks and that soon got out. Gey did his best to conceal her identity by making up pseudonyms such as Helen Lane and Helen Larsen but that didn’t help long. Soon after in the 1970’s the press got a hold of her name and word soon found her family too. Many people question the ethics of these doctors because they took Henrietta’s…
