    Nick Carraway and Holden Caulfield is both opposite in the sense of personalities, Nick is very honest, “Everyone suspects himself of at least one of the cardinal virtues, and this is mine: I am of the few honest people that I have ever known.”(Fitzgerald 69). Holden Caulfield is the exact opposite, “I'm the most terrific liar you ever saw in your life. It's awful. If I'm on my way to the store to buy a magazine, even, and somebody asks me where I'm going, I'm liable to say I'm going to the opera. It's terrible.” (J.D. Salinger Chapter 3).

    How Does Steinbeck Present the Relationship Between George and Lennie in the Novel?

    However, in order to avoid any assumption that one man was better than the other, Steinbeck dissolves the idea of a hierarchy immediately as he details the similarities between the two men, all of which refer to clothing and possessions, such as them both being "dressed in denim trousers and denim coats with brass buttons", and having "black, shapeless hats" and "tight blanket rolls slung over their shoulders". Through their sole similarities being material possessions, Steinbeck shows that these two men are completely equal in circumstance and situation, intensifying attention on and the significance of their physical and mental differences.…

    A comparison of the book OF MICE AND MEN and THE PEARL, both written by John Steinbeck

    The next two men that can be compared are George and Kino. Both of these men are the leaders of the story. In The Pearl, Steinbeck writes "Saying this is safety, this is warmth, this is the whole (6)." This shows even Kino sees himself as the fatherly, manly figure in charge. In Of Mice and Men George states "An' he was so damn nice to me for pullin' him out. Clean forgot I told him to jump in (40)." This incident shows George is the leader and Lennie does what he wants. Also, they are both the caretakers. In a conversation, George said "I told his old Lady I'd take care of him (22)." A statement was made about Kino's milieu; "... a savage, secret, dangerous melody (10)" This shows Kino's very protective nature of his family.…

    Are Millennials Experiencing A Crisis Of Masculinity Analysis

    Aleck states, “A Real Man is his ability to construct a porch”. Eror inserts information such as polls that determines what percentage of men are considered “Real Man”. Aleck continues, with presenting how the government and political leaders such as our President has a part with this crisis. He makes it known that as soon as the President came to office and the shift of leadership changed is what caused a rise in the lack of masculinity. Eror shows the importance of how the feeling of less of a man has affected men in fraternities. It has effected men to experiencing forms of anxiety that they feel the need to form groups such as “The Good Men Project”. According to Eror, if one is of higher class and have money one is freer to cultivate a new manly hood of what makes a man. In a personal view he gives his opinions on stances throughout this new generation, such as “body positivity” and just tells of where he stands politically wise which is form of conservative. He asserts on how the men in millennial generation lack in ways that the fathers before them do not lack. He states once the people acknowledge that there is a problem that measures can be taken to continue with decades of social progress. Eror concludes that allowing others to influence the advances of social progress will do no justice to further…

    “Never judge a books by its cover.” Victor Franklinstein is a highly mistaken for an evil just because of his the way he looks. Folks tend to jump to conclusions based on what they see on the outside, but once people get to know him, they will discover a human trying to make the world a better. The resemblance reminds me of Tony Starks in terms of their inventions failures, but a differences of how they handle their mistakes.…

    Heroes Robert Cormier Analysis

    ‘Heroes’ by Robert Cormier presents the view that appearances can be deceptive, asserting that how an individual may appear does not reflect his or her raw nature. Cormier explores this view by developing multiple characters and their outer personas through the slow deliberate unveiling of their true nature. Cormier develops his characters Francis Cassavant, Larry LaSalle and Nicole Renard to portray this duality. The reader from the beginning makes assumptions about these characters, their appearance, their persona, their motives based on what Cormier writes. As the book continues the actual nature of the characters is exposed, often contrasting to each reader’s…
