Essay on Bless Me Ultima
In the story Bless Me Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya, there are clues that are left throughout the story that lead the reader to one of two conclusions depending on how the reader sees the characters and there actions. the first conclusion is that Ultima is a messenger form satin and is working for the devil himself. The second conclusion is that Ultima is a person that walks the earth and preforms miracles and saves lives through the use of her magic and power.
Ever person in the story that hears the word witch immediately thinks evil, I believe that this is not the case. Both Ultima and TenorioЃfs daughters use the same power and magic, but they use the power and magic in very different ways. I believe that both the daughters and Ultima are witches because they wield the same force and power, they both have extensive knowledge of herbs and the both perform ceremonies to perform there miracles. So in my opinion they are one and the same in terms of what they can do. The difference comes when we look at what they do with there magic. The sisters use it to destroy and kill. Ultima uses her power to heal and save lives. Except for one instance when Ultima uses her powers to slowly kill the daughters of Tenorio. But to me this action was justified.
Throughout the novel Ultima is always trying to undo the harm and destruction that the Trementina sisters have caused. She does this multiple times. The first time is when she cures Lucas of his lethal curse and in turn reflects the cures back onto the daughters and two of the witches perish for there mistake. The second time that Ultima unravels one of the witchЃfs evil plots is when the witches revive the dead spirits of the ancient Indians and use them to cures the house of Tellez and his family. Ultima is asked to come and help and she does. She performs a ceremony that puts the restless souls at peace and the curse is then lifted. In these two cases Ultima is on the side of good.
