Corporal Erwin Greene said while unmounting his horse carrying a rifle. Private Aaron Thompson rode over there getting a pistol out while the rest of the patrol went over to a river. Then seconds later Aaron was shot off his horse. Greene kicked the bush and shot it, a West Vanian Sniper, where there was one there was more. He called the Militia's medical team to tend to Aaron and rode away. When he met up with the rest smoke was rising in the distance. Then a Militia Member ran up saying, "We just received a message from Dansburg, the Westerns are attacking and the two-thousand-man can't take it!" He was still catching his breath.

    Richard Middleton's 'Never Come To Peace Again'

    History has cast aside the events of 1763 and focused on the bookends, the French and Indian War and the American Revolution. Ignored is a pivotal moment during the tumultuous year of 1763; the Fort Pitt Campaign where a British relief column, sent to relieve the besieged Fort Pitt, was attacked by a coalition of Indians. The event has been mostly ignored or forgotten by historians thus only few scholars have relegated attention to the campaign. In his article about the 42nd Regiment of Foot’s involvement in the battle, Ian Davidson notes that the battle is given little notice in the official battle honors of the regiment. Davidson, himself, is truly concerned about the 42nd’s involvement in the Battle of Bushy Run. David Dixon’s book, Never Come to Peace Again, provides a chapter retelling the event while Richard Middleton dedicates a few pages to the event in his book, Pontiac’s War.…

    Mansurian Narrative

    It’s been about 6 months since I’ve arrived here in Germany. There have been many attacks but the most recent one has a story attached to it. This attack was considered the Second Battle of the Mansurian Lakes or as we like to call it, the Winter Battle of the Masurian Lakes. They planned for us to attack eastward from the front line in western Poland. Once they notified Chief Erich Von Falkenhayn, he sent us an additional 4 army corps. Hindenburg sent Hunt, Kepner, Avery, and myself to go greet the newcomers and tell them about the plan. Once we got back to camp, the general’s told us to prepare for battle because we would start our attack the next day. Of course Kepner started freaking out because she hadn’t had the chance to go down to the…

    A Semi-Brief History of the Visual Narrative

    Humans are as diverse as they are the same, even in their opinion of such a statement. There are billions of people communicating countless ideas in a multitude of languages the world over, yet somehow common themes and ideas transect the pages of history, excluding none. Here in the digital age, the surrounding environment continues to become more and more visually-infested, nearly keeping pace with the rapid development of communications technology. "In such a world, the problem of how words and pictures connect is a vital one. And no artistic medium seems to me as properly suited to the working out of the connection as the visual narrative is. It is itself the meeting ground of words and pictures" (Dardess 222).…

    John Berger's Essay 'Another Way Of Telling'

    In John Berger's essay "Another Way of Telling," Berger argues that photographs contain a "third meaning." Berger claims that the third meaning is personal and relies almost completely on the individual viewer. As a result, no photograph can convey the same message to any two people and no two photographs can convey the same message to any one person. Here, the validity of Berger's assumption crumbles. All photographs communicate one absolute truth.…

    Narrative voice in the bell jar

    L.P. Hartley and Sylvia Plath both use the first person narrative to evoke a sense of tragedy for their protagonists, however, with Leo, Hartley uses the first person narrative to allow the reader to understand the unfortunate event in the life of twelve year old Leo. Some may say that the first person narration of Leo is both more personal and detailed than that of Esther. The reader sees the sophisticated world of Brandham Hall, contrasted with the closeness of Leo’s relationship with his mother, from Leo’s perspective. On the other hand, in The Bell-Jar the reader’s understanding of Esther’s life is limited by the cold and detached first person narrative, due to her descent into depression. It could be said that Esther is presented as repressing her emotions, yet her opinionated ways lead to her alienation. This makes her unreliable as the reader experiences the narrator’s life from her dysfunctional perspective. This makes it hard for the reader to connect to Esther, therefore limiting our empathy with her tragedy. In contrast, the reader sympathises with Leo as we see his youth and enthusiasm for life being destroyed, which enhances the tragedy.…
