    The two men don’t feel bad for hunting and taking their prey’s life. As shown when Rainsford remarks, “Who cares how a Jaguar feels, (1)”. Also, how General Zaroff who has already taken many animals lives, then proclaims, “I had to invent a new animal to hunt,” (8). Both examples show how both Rainsford and Zaroff show no empathy for murdering the animals as well as the humans. Therefore, Zaroff and Rainsford alike in the way they hunt. Another way Zaroff and Rainsford are alike is their belief that the world is divided into two classes. Zaroff’s theory being the world is divided by strong/weak. Zaroff states his opinion, “Life is for the strong...The weak were put here to give the strong pleasure,” (9). As for Rainsford’s perspective, he believes, “The world is made up of two classes, the hunted/huntee.” Both men believe that in the world, you're either one or the other. Furthermore, both men show identical qualities after Rainsford kills Zaroff when he sleeps in his bed, “He had never slept in a better bed.” (16). This shows that Rainsford now believes he has the power that Zaroff once had and accepts that he is now like Zaroff. In addition, they both are alike because when…

    Initially the setting of the story is on a yacht in the Caribbean. Rainsford is involved in small talk with his friend, Whitney, and the conversation is about their favorite hobby, hunting big game. The fact that these men could afford a hunting trip to the Amazon speaks of their wealth, and these men have apparently taken several trips together. General Zaroff is not unlike Rainsford in this respect. From his childhood, Zaroff has been living in the lap of luxury. The General's father owned "a quarter of a million acres in the Crimea," and gave his son a gun when his son was only five years old. From this early indoctrination into the hunt, the General became a man that not only enjoyed hunting, but his fulfillment in life depended on the hunt. Both Rainsford and Zaroff are wealthy, and both love hunting, but their views of the subject are radically different.…

    There was a major difference in the interpretations of Howard Zinn and Eric Foner about the 1900’s. For starters, Both Howard Zinn and Eric Foner are American Historians who have written extensively on forgotten aspects of American History. Their works are often thought of as controversial for their views. When it comes to responding to historical moments Foner is somewhat more forgiving, while he called Zinn in his epitaph “the kind of historian 'that judges and condemns”.…

    Unlike Prosser, General Zaroff (antagonist) seems to be living in a fantasy land in his mind. He makes his home in a mansion on ‘Ship Trap’ island which he purchased for himself. Zaroff leads a very civilized life, which on the surface, seems to be completely normal. He welcomes Rainsford (protagonist) with open arms into his home as he says, “It is a very great pleasure and honor to welcome Mr. Sanger Rainsford, the celebrated hunter, to my home” (p. 4). Zaroff has many possessions and seems to be of the upper class. He intentionally obtains the finest of everything in order to give the impression that he leads a…

    Racism. We have all experienced racism at least once in our lives. Being judged by for the color of your skin. Your thoughts do not matter. Nor do your feelings. That is what is in the mind of a racist. Alongside racism are stereotypes. Stereotypes are a conventional, opinionated judgement that can create tough misconceptions of certain people, which many times are easily recognized and understood by others who share the same views. In "Black men in public spaces" by Brent Staples, and in " The Myth of A Latin Woman " by Cofer, the authors talk about stereotypes and the different but similar expierences they both encounter. Brent Staples explains how people classify him as being a robber or a rapist, just for being a young, black male. Staples starts off his essay with a personal experience, "My first victim was a woman, white, well dressed, probably in her early twenties. I came upon her late one evening on a deserted street in Hyde Park, a relatively affluent neighborhood in an otherwise mean, impoverished section of Chicago. As i swung onto the avenue behind her, there seemed to be a discreet, unimflammatory distance behind us." Then, Staples goes on talking about how the woman casts back "a worried glance", and "picked up her pace and was soon running in earnest." The author also explains that the woman only did this because "to her, the youngish black man a broad six feet two inches with a beard and billowing hair, both hands shoved into the pockets of a bulky military jacket seemed menacingly close." But would it have made a difference if he wasn't black? Staples also made it a habit to whistle classical music while in dark alley situations. He did this to ease the situation up a bit, trying to differ the type of attention that the stereotypical uneducated black male receives. He dealt with his stereotype in a calm manner by changing his behavior to make people less nervous around him. Similarly Cofer was stereotyped as maid, waitress, and sexual object.…

    Zaroff is well kept and handsome; it appears as if he takes care of himself vigorously. He may seem noble but he is actually two-faced, arrogant, deceiving, and fearless. He lives life to please himself and he is able to do so because of his wealth. In his own conniving way, he is intelligent as he speaks in a sarcastic and almost innocent way, as if he really is. General Zaroff thinks, “The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure,” (Connell). Zaroff believes that he as power over everybody and that he is the “strong”; so why shouldn’t he “use his gift”.(Connell 21) He pursues excitement in hunting, to do so he chooses to hunt a new animal which no animal could compare with it for an instant (Connell 21). Zaroff wants more then just a “hunt”; he wants a competition or an adventure of some sort. He wants the amusement of watching all…
