When God asks, Adam replies, “The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat” (King James Version, Gen 3.12). When God turns to Eve, however, she says “The serpent…

These sins have both similarities and differences. In both stories sins were made. In Adam and Eve, they sin because they eat fruit from a forbidden tree. They then get called evil for doing so. They also have sex in the garden. In…

    Abraham by Hrotsvitha and a Play for Representing Adam, author unknown are both similar and different to one another in a variety of ways. Adam is directly based on the Bible text, while Abraham has references to God and the Bible, but takes place in its own time and place. Each are effective of communicating the messages they intend to in their own way, in construction, in their use of Representatio, and in the use of dialogue, staging, humor, wordplay, metaphor and characterization. A special…

    walking through acres of fruit trees “We walked with an accustomed tread through the acres of fruit trees, where the least energetic could find an easy if unsatisfying meal" (Golding, 50).
