The theme that I have chosen to analyze in The Call of the Wild is the power of instinct. Buck and the other dogs are living in the frozen terrain of northern Canada and they experience starvation, exhaustion, and freezing temperatures. Buck is put into a place where he must learn skills in order to survive the harsh conditions. Throughout the story we learn that Buck isn't just learning new skills, but is merely recovering primitive instincts. As you read the book, the author writes in way…

Buck had met people that influenced him greatly throughout his journey. In Jack London's The Call Of The Wild, Buck's major influences were The Man in the Red Sweater, Spitz, and John Thornton. When Buck first met the man In the red sweater he bet buck with a golf club. Buck later learned that people had control over him and there was nothing he could do. "He saw, once for all, that he stood no chance against a man with a club. He had learned the lesson, and in all his after life he never…

Do you just love dogs? I mean, who doesn’t? If you do love dogs, then I recommend you read the novel The Call of the Wild by Jack London. The Call of the Wild is about a big, fluffy dog named Buck. It takes place in 1897 during the Klondike Gold Rush, when people from all places were heading to the Northland in hopes of striking it rich. Unfortunately for Buck, he was the kind of dog people were looking for to pull their dogsleds. As a result, he was taken from his sun-kissed home in California…

Wanting to support his son’s decision to go to college and on a deeper…

Africa and Africans in the Making of the Atlantic World is an outstanding book. Thornton's talked stated a lot of great facts, but he also managed to get into great details on what he was trying to persuade the readers about his story. Thornton starts each chapter talking about issue dealing with slavery and how it was brought to America. He talks about things such as the debate that people have about slavery, and etc. He also talks about his own personal opinions as well. Africa and Africans…

"[T]here was a unifying theme that ran through most of the judgments made about Ireland and the Irish in Victorian England, and that theme had a distinctly ethnic and racial character. Stated simply, this consensus amounted to an assumption or a conviction that the 'native Irish ' were alien in race and inferior in culture to the Anglo-Saxons" (Curtis 5). In North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell, this Victorian undercurrent of anti-Irish sentiment is felt throughout the novel. The novel 's view…

never know when our time is up. Our Town is a play in three acts by Thornton Wilder that portrays this way of life. Wilder expertly utilizes the setting and literary devices to show that humans should appreciate the beautiful transient life one is given. The whole play is basically structured in three days. Thornton begins the play at the crack of dawn when everyone is waking up and concludes it with the dead at the cemetery. Thornton sets up this allegory by comparing the sun’s cycle to the…
