    Summary of Las Hijas de Juan: Daughters Betrayed

    Josie Mendez-Negrete’s novel, Las Hijas de Juan: Daughters Betrayed, is a very disturbing tale about brutal domestic abuse and incest. Negrete’s novel is an autobiography regarding experiences of incest in a working-class Mexican American family. It is Josie Mendez-Negrete’s story of how she, her siblings, and her mother survived years of violence and sexual abuse at the hands of her father. “Las Hijas de Juan" is told chronologically, from the time Mendez-Negrete was a child until she was a young adult trying, along with the rest of her family, to come to terms with her father 's brutal legacy.

At the same time, "Las Hijas de Juan" is an inspirational tale, filled with strong women and hard-won solace found in traditional Mexican cooking, songs, and storytelling.…

    The Oppression Of Fate In Antonio Fuentes By Veronica Baker

    Antonio Fuentes met Veronica Baker in a way that borders on sounding like a romantic comedy: a tale of spilled coffee and an apologetic lawyer, an overwhelmed grad student accepting her fate- that today would in fact, be one of the not-so-great ones. Antonio took this event, like so many others in his life, as a challenge. Admittedly, making amends with the girl he’d just scalded seemed like a nearly impossible task, but Antonio managed damage control with charm and grace. Rosa often thinks of her parents meeting as a reminder of fate, something to hang on to when she’s not sure she’s doing the right thing.…

    Yo: Short Story and Yolanda Garcia Essay Example

    In Julia Alvarez's Yo!, Yolanda Garcia's family and friends get their chance to tell the truth about Yo. They express their feelings and their stories about Yo, including how she's always told lies, how she stole the plot for a story from a student, and how her college professor kept trying to prevent her from ruining her life and her talents. Alvarez tells Yolanda's story through other characters, while Yo is denied the privilege of defending herself. It is ironic because initially, the novel is based on Yolanda and how angry her loved ones are after she publishes a book that exposes personal things about each of them. In this novel, these very people are working to set the story straight and portray the true Yolanda Garcia that they know, a liar, a plagiarist, and a dropout.…

    Childhood In Isabel Allende's Simple Maria

    Isabel Allende grew up amidst a massive struggle in her home country of Chile, where her uncle was assassinated for his political policies and she had to flee the country. However, out of the rough ground grew a rose—Allende’s literature. Many of her works are heavily inspired by her trying childhood, especially the short story “Simple Maria.” In “Simple Maria,” a story in which the main character that is a prostitute becomes mentally disabled after being hit by a locomotive, many ties can be drawn from the story to Allende’s childhood. Isabel Allende used this short story as an allegory to her own life and the struggles that she had to endure during her childhood.…

    In Leona’s story, the character versus society conflict is very clear. Leona lived with her grandmother, who didn't believed in doctors, not even if they were black.

    Beatrice’s Inner Strength: a Feminist Approach to Rappaccini's Daughter

    Beatrice’s Inner Strength: a Feminist Approach to Rappaccini's Daughter

    In reading Nathaniel Hawthorne’s dark tale, Rappaccini’s Daughter, one immediately begins to question the seductive relationship between Beatrice and Giovanni, and the loving relationship between herself and her father. Beatrice is an interesting character because she has several distinct female qualities; she is intelligent, beautiful, sinister, maternal, and seductive, all dominant female characteristics not often seen in one character in mid-19th-century literature. Beatrice is also able to guard her emotions well and is careful who she lets into her world but at the same time, she falls for Giovanni very quickly and is willing to sacrifice her life for his. Several times during the reading I questioned Hawthorne’s intent in creating a character like Beatrice. She is vile and sinister yet beautiful and seductive, and, at the same time, I question why Hawthorne created a character like Giovanni, who I consider to be an emotionally weak male that falls for a sinister yet intelligent young woman that is his polar opposite. In researching what critics have said about this triangular relationship between Beatrice, Rappaccini, and Giovanni several arguments have noted that Beatrice can be seen as a woman who is being pulled apart between the love of a father and the love of a man. In addition, she is not able to make her own choices in life because dominant males control her world. This triangular relationship seems to be very sinister because all three people want something out of each other and they would stop at nothing to get what they want. For example, Giovanni creates a relationship with Beatrice when he knows that there will be problems but he still wants to covet Rappaccini’s beautiful daughter. While Rappaccini, on the other hand, wants eternal happiness for his daughter but at the same time has made her poisonous that she cannot experience true happiness with other men. Beatrice plays a duel role, first as a seductress trying to find love in an enclosed…

    Merida The Movie Brave Essay

    Merida from the Disney Movie Brave is a very unique princess, and she is different than the other Disney princesses in many ways. Her roles are different than the traditional roles used in other Disney movies since she likes weapons and archery, does not want to become a princess, has a strong bond with her family and mother, and emotionally changes throughout the movie. Many Disney princesses do not change or like weapons, nor do they have a strong family bond or do not want to be a princess, yet this makes Merida different from the rest.…

    Short Summary Of The Short Story Numberlessoplis By Fernando

    There once was this boy (lets just call him Fernando) who owned a thin, blue calculator, of course he didn't know it was a calculator at the time. He lived in a little town called Numberlessoplis, and in this town there was no such thing as numbers, math or even money. It was a peaceful town, not much greed or selfishness because there was no money. There life was almost perfect in Numberlessoplis, except for one little thing. There was only one of everything. One banana, one mayo jar, one tree, one problem, one huge house. But they didn't think that was such a bad thing, because of course they didn't know what they were missing out on. The only thing that there was a lot of, were people. They were discovering new things every day. But that was good because there lives were practically routine.…

    how do you download google play store

    I went on with my life, without Tulip Pierce I felt better, what she said was: “Natalie me and Tulip need to talk to you tomorrow after school in front of the cafeteria on the first floor. This chat will bring a smile on your face and will make you happy. Also the talk will also be about Tulip’s smiling at you every time you see her.” The next day the school went so slow that I almost slept in mathematics. I took my books and my jacket and went to the cafeteria. While I was walking I was thinking that Tulip sat a trap and was going to catch me and drag me to her basement so I can live there forever. I was so surprised after all that fear because Tulip looked normal then usual and her mouths opened and what came out of them was: “Look Natalie I am really sorry of how I acted before I was such an idiot. Could you possibly forgive me and we could possibly turn a blank new page with a fresh new start. I was so surprised with wide eyes that it only took me one second to realize it is definitely a yes and that’s what I said. Since then Tulip has and safer from all that trouble. I guess she is gone forever from my life if she doesn´t apologize or do something which I could really tell she misses me and I am proud of her. The strange thing is that every time she comes to school, which is only sometimes, she is hanging around a girl named something like Ruby, and Tulip is since then acting really nice which somehow bothers me as if she is going to get revenge on me with her little friend Ruby. I made a strong and tuff wall between us and I new soon will Ruby do that because she will get sick of Tulips games and her act of being good.

    Fray Montano: on Estrella's Character

    “Bisan ano ka lawig sang prusisyon sa simbahan man guihapon padulong” is Visayan for “Pagkahaba-haba man ng prusisyon, sa simbahan din naman ang tuloy” or “The procession may be long enough but it will always end in the Church” and talks of the attitude of the Filipinos toward the Spanish culture of religion. The tale of “The Death of Fray Salvador Montano, Conquistador of Negros” talks about the period during the Spanish colonization of the Philippines and how the conqueror gets conquered by those he conquers. In the Filipino people’s perspective, however, comes another story. With Negros’ babaylan, Estrella, she becomes the prominent figure symbolizing the people of Negros, (and that of Filipinos) in general. Her unusual characteristics, such as her hands like claws symbolize the Philippine national symbol of the eagle. Also, Estrella chanted the Buyung Labaw Donggon or the Hiligaynon epic composed of the antagonist Yawa and the god Makagagahum, was considered to be a confusing story that bore the people like the Church teachings by the friars would do to them. The social classes are also implied in the story as the people of Pueblo Buyonan composed the working class who were oppressed in a sense. Along with the people of Negros, they come at an advantage of the conqueror as they simply carry on with their traditions and lifestyles even at the cultural instillation of the Spaniards.…
