    The poem rhymes on every other line. Which gives a structure that shows the monotony of life in prison. It gives me the opinion that life in prison is boring for the inmates, it is not altogether unpleasant. “ Every hour a step towards freedom”. I can’t help but empathise as I sit here writing my answer. How less free are they in…

    The structure in the poem illustrates the freedom of youth and playfulness. The poem is written in free verse to emphasize the significance of her as being free as she fantasizes about being unstoppable and not being ordinary. In lines 23 and 24, the enjambments are crucial to the whole liberal tone of the poem. Through the rhetorical question, “[c]an it be there was only one summer that I was ten?”…

    Upon reading the poem, imagery can be found throughout the entire poem. For example, in the first two lines you can imagine a doll being put away like a dead child in a chest, you cannot bring a dead child back to life. This is the burial of her childhood only to keep her memories and carry them with her for the rest of her life. Also, the second to last line where she is “wound,” twisted, “like the guts of a clock,” referring to her stomach. She feels a sense of anxiety here. This is her final emotion to conclude the poem. She fears growing up because of the responsibilities she will have to take on, the shame she felt when her period started, will…

    In the novel Jane Eyre, Charlotte Bronte wants the readers to be able to have insight about what it was like growing up as a female during this era. In my analysis of the book, I found that the novel did a great job portraying what it is was like for women to grow up in the era that the book takes place in. Women is this period of time were treated with disrespect, and were forced to be a typically housemaid and were not allowed to have real jobs. When Jane Eyre was growing up, she was often shunned by her aunt and cousins and was taken into rooms to be locked in with no one else. In my opinion, this shows how poorly women, young girls in particular, were treated. In addition to women being treated incompetently, they also had far less personal…

    Emptiness is the feeling you get at 2 A.M when you look at your old Facebook photos, smiling at the old photos of yourself, and realize the people who made you smile, laugh, and giggle are no longer around. You look at these photos as a journey down memory lane but in reality deep down somewhere, you wish you could experience these moments just once more. There’s nothing wrong with having a glance at the past but substituting the past for the present and yearning for it is dangerous. The past has a captivating effect that makes us fall in love it because it helps ignite a sense of happiness and comfortability. You can see the idea of never wanting to let go of the past go in “A Rose for Emily” by William Faulkner. “A Rose…

    In “A Rose for Emily,” William Faulkner utilizes multiple characters to portray different spiritual beings. The three main characters are Miss Emily, Tobe, and Homer Barron, and they are constantly scrutinized by the community. Emily’s house is described as having a “stubborn and coquettish decay,” meaning it as a peculiar aspect of fascination to others (253). In this way, it is similar to God’s house (heaven) in that the people are strangely attracted to it. Additionally, Tobe constantly tends to the house and watches over its inhabitants. Similarly, the bible states, “Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 18:10). This verse testifies that angels supervise heaven, which is very comparable to how to Emily’s house; Faulkner is attempting to portray Miss Emily’s house as holy and superior to others. In thesis, Miss Emily is God, Homer is Satan, and the community is regular sinners.…

    The narrator provides that Miss Emily is crazy in an obscure way. First the smell in which we can see in page 284, "will you accuse a lady to her face of smelling bad?" Second, when she wanted arsenic in page 286, "I want arsenic." Thirdly, how she never leaves her house in page 288. Lastly, she is crazy because when the townspeople went inside Miss Emily's house they found Homer lying in a bed decaying and found out that Miss Emily was sleeping next it in page 289, "Then we noticed that in the second pillow… leaning forward, that faint… long strand of iron-gray hair." We can infer that the narrators are just telling the story out of their observation from a first person plural point of view. The narrator is however very…

Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily” is a complex and dark story that keeps readers guessing and intrigued by Faulkner’s abundant use of literally elements.

    Sandra M. Gilbert’s, “Bronte’s Bible of Hell”, offers a distinct analysis of the novel Wuthering Heights. What is interesting is how Gilbert analyzes Emily Bronte’s life, speculating possible reasons for the development of the novel. Gilbert’s starts out with a bold claim that Wuthering Heights is about “heaven and hell”. More specifically, Wuthering Heights holds the characteristics of hell, while the Thrushcross Grange represents culture and civility. A reasonable assumption given the restrictions that tenants of Wuthering Heights faced because of Heathcliff on a daily basis. Not to mention the gothic nature that Wuthering Heights held throughout the course of the novel, with its descriptions of various paintings on the wall. What striked…

    In his many works of fiction, William Faulkner explores the lives of characters who live in the closed society of the American South, a society rooted in traditional values. In the short stories "Barn Burning" and "A Rose for Emily," Faulkner explores what happens when individuals lose their connection to this society and its values. Both Abner Snopes, a rebellious sharecropper, and Emily Grierson, an unmarried woman from a prominent family, are isolated from their respective communities, and both find themselves in a kind of societal limbo. Once in that limbo, they no longer feel the need to adhere to the values of their society and, as a result,are free to violate both traditional and moral rules.…
