To Build a Fire story (Dog's Perspective) I was hiking with my owner in the Yukon. Personally I think it was unintelligent to be hiking in this cold weather but I was still forced to by my owner. I like to think that we both needed each other to survive but I was just a pawn in the grand scheme of things. I was a mere test subject I was sent to walk ice because he was to scared too. The first sign of trouble came when he fell into ice, I could not do anything to help him. He had to make…

there are 150 single-member seats with preferential voting (Find source). However in the Senate (upper house), there is a single-transferable proportional vote (STV) for each multi-member state (Find source). The proportional representation electoral system is believed to, according to Duverger’s Law, lead to a multi-party system (Find source). Despite this, the Australian House of Represenatives and the Senate is still dominated by two parties- Australian Labor Party and the Coalition.…

Corazon Aquino was open to growth in the various ways as she worked to find solutions to the conflicts in the Philippines. Through her understanding that influence sometimes depends upon being the one in charge and at other times working effectively within a group, she demonstrated an ability to influence others in a way that promoted justice. Aquino used nonviolence to stand up against injustices and made many new reforms according to the needs of the people. Unlike the Philippine’s president…

Many consider nature the victim of mankind. Clearing rainforests, overfishing waters, and stripping the soil, people constantly exploit natural resources for personal benefit. Humanity destroys innocent nature for corrupt and selfish purposes. However, it is mistaken to only label mankind as predatory—nature preys ruthlessly upon mankind. Nature renders people powerless through natural disasters, violent weather, and extreme temperature. People are the true victims and nature the real villain.…

The character, the man, from “To Build a Fire” was erratic in his decision to face the wild alone. He was not smart about going into the wild alone because he didn’t listen to the man about if it is below -50 degrees, to go with a partner. He was very inconsistent about his knowledge about the cold. He is making a nine hour trek across the Yukon with only his dog in the bitter cold. One way he was erratic in his decision was even when it was gloomy, bitter, numbing cold, the man is…

In Jack London’s « To Build a Fire », the reoccurring theme of survival in the wilderness is developed through the man’s responsibility of his own fate by making instinctive decisions and by underestimating nature’s power. When the man starts his journey, he makes INSTINCITIVE DECISIONS to travel light through the cold Yukon weather. The man plans to travel a nine hour trip with only his dog, to which he has no relationship with, light clothing, and biscuits. “That man from Sulphur Creek had…

In To Build A Fire, the man’s attitude towards the land changes drastically as the situation becomes a matter of life or immediate death. In the beginning of the story, the man is very confident in his ability to survive the journey in the wilderness, despite being a chechaquo or “newcomer in the land.” (Allen et al., 2012, p. 82) He was not prepared with the necessary equipment or knowledge for this journey. He didn’t protect his cheeks or nose, which would eventually suffer from frostbite.…

When I was a baby, we moved from St. Louis, Missouri to Mt. Juliet, Tennessee and we have lived there ever since. I do not know what it is like to live anywhere else but in the small town that is about thirty minutes east of Nashville. It is difficult for me to imagine myself growing up somewhere that is not good ole Mt. Juliet where everyone knows everyone and our most exciting event of the year is the Wilson County Fair that is held in August. I tried to imagine myself living in Australia…

The unfortunate story of this man traveling alone in the Yukon shows our undying desire to trek through ill terrain without the need for assistance. The man who went aside from the main Yukon trail obviously did not listen to the wisdom of a native Alaskan who has seen these parts of the woods for many years. The arrogance that the man displayed as he constantly mumbled to himself about his mistake progressively instills the short values that revolves around the need for wisdom when preparing…
