A Comparative Analysis Of Rikkki-Tikki And Nagaina
Rikki-tikki is so determined to execute Nag and Nagaina because he wants justice and to avenge the baby bird that Nag feasted on when it fell out of Darzee’s nest. “‘We are very miserable," said Darzee. "One of our babies fell out of the nest yesterday and Nag ate him.’...Rikki-tikki tingled all over with rage and hatred...I will kill the big man and his wife, and the child if I can...” That evidence shows that Rikki-tikki hates Nag and Nagaina because the couple were attempting to kill Rikki-tikki’s family.

    When fighting with Nagaina, she went down to a hole “and she plunged into the rat hole where she and Nag used to live, his little white teeth were clenched on her tail and he went down with her and very few mongooses- however wise and old they maybe, care to go into the hole.” (27) This shows how brave Rikki-tikki was since none of the mongooses will ever go down, but he did because “Rikki-tikki knew he must catch her or all the trouble will begin again.” (26) Another time he showed bravery was when Nag was in the water jug he risked his life to jump in there and hold on. “Then he jumped. The head was lying a little clear from the water jar, under the curve of it; and as his teeth, Rikki braced his back against the bulge of the red earthenware to hold down the head. This gave him one second purchase, and he made the most of it. Then he was battered to and fro as a rat shaken by a dog…..” (22) He could of just let go,but he chose not to and wait into the humans killed Nag completely. This shows how brave he was.…

    The post is a valuable insight and a great example of a worldview and how it affects people in their daily life. Even though other cultural and worldview perspectives may be different from the believer, it done not necessary imply that they are incorrect. David J. Hesselgrave in his commentary of the Zanaki people shows that other viewpoints may even be more expressive or “more personal than our own.” Often the new Christian learns or creates a new worldview and assessment of the world. Once someone truly understands the actual state of their sinfulness, truly repents, and accepts Christ as their personal Savior, they can change their outlook on life through the work of the Holy Spirit. The Apostle Peter encourages the believer to learn as…

    In “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi”, Nagaina turned out to be very desperate for the survival of her eggs. During the last scenes of the story, when Rikki-tikki was about to destroy Nagaina’s last egg to lure her away from Teddy, she forgot about every one of her goals just for her last egg and was willing to do anything for it. Nagaina even claimed that she would leave the garden forever and never come back, just for the sake of her egg, which was proven when she says,“Give me the egg, Rikki-tikki. Give me the last of my egg, and I will go away and never come back,” on page 241. Nagaina was willing to lose all her power over the garden just for her one egg. If she could do this much for the life of one egg, did she not realize that it would be wrong for her to kill, Teddy, his father, his mother, and…

    Nastassya's dishonor at Totsky's hands leads to (roll around on the ground) in self-blame and sets in movement her habit/desire for self-destruction. She is willing to give up her own life to cause pain to her offender. At the end of Part I, Ptitsyn draws the example of a Japanese custom of committing hara-kiri in front of one's law-breakers. In fact, this is exactly Nastassya Filippovna's (the study of thinking and behavior). She is willing to ruin her life--by running away with Rogozhin--in order to prove that she is a shameless woman and that her hot and steamy past is Totsky's fault. In the end, she even willingly goes to her death, which she knows she will find in Rogozhin. Nastassya cannot overcome her spite and extreme anger. Although…

    Oroonoko is a short work of prose fiction by Aphra Behn (1640–1689), published in 1688, concerning the love of its hero, an enslaved African inSurinam in the 1660s, and the author's own experiences in the new South American colony. Behn worked for Charles II as a spy during the outset of the Second Dutch War, ending up destitute when she returned to England, and even spending time in a debtors' prison, because Charles failed to pay her properly, or at all. She turned her hand to writing in order to survive, with remarkable success. She wrote poetry that sold well, and had a number of plays staged, which established her fame in her own lifetime. In the 1670s, only John Dryden had plays staged more often than Behn. She began to write extended narrative prose toward the end of her career. Published less than a year before she died, Oroonoko is one of the earliest English novels. Interest in it has increased since the 1970s, critics arguing that Behn is the foremother of British women writers, and that Oroonoko is a crucial text in the history of the novel.[1] -------------------------------------------------…
