    Who Has Seen The Wind Brian O Connal Character Analysis

    Mitchell’s, Who Has Seen The Wind, there are many differences between Brian O’Connal and The Young Ben from the prairie. The Main different between the two boy’s is their home life, Brian’s father Gerald O’Connal is the town’s pharmacist, and a very loving and caring man, on the other hand the Young Ben’s Father, The Ben is a childish and irresponsible drunk. Brian has a caring loving father, who is always home; whereas The Young Ben’s father is only out for himself and is more interested in finding a place for his alcohol still, than caring for his only son. Another example of how the boys differ is their lifestyle, the way they were brought up; Brian was raised in a loving home, whereas the Young Ben household was more of an, everyone fends for themselves. The O’Connal family is more fortunate then the Ben family: “There was no doubt that the Young Ben wanted the gun badly, and the yearning that the Young Ben must feel found its match in the school principal.” The Mother Ben isn’t spoken about much in the novel, although The Ben is describes as very self-interested, he doesn’t care a lot about him family. Then there is the location of the boys bringing up, The Young Ben lives with his parent just outside the small Saskatchewan town on the prairie, and Brian lives in the small town. The Young Ben was first introduced as the “boy on the prairie,” said to just wonder. Another difference between Brian and The Young Ben’s home lives is their mothers. Brian’s mother, Maggie, O’Connal is well involved, and very loving, whereas The Mother Ben is not spoken of a lot in the novel, she doesn’t have a real strong presence, the author does not state if she is a caring mother or not, but we as the reader are giving a sense that The Young Ben is left to fend for himself. For example during an encounter Mr. Digby, the school principal and The Mother Ben had about Mr. Digby’s concern over The Young Ben’s School, The Mother Ben came off as though the matter did not…

    Mary Ann Glendon's Chapter Summary

    Mary Ann Glendon begins by discussing the eighteenth century and what the Founding Fathers expected America to be when they were discussing social systems, the environment and emphasis on family during that time period produced different character and personality than our environment and definition of family does today. Glendon asserts, “the market economy, too, can take a toll on society.” This quote in particular reminded me of the probing social commentary discussed in the previous chapters of Lasch, where the market, no longer relying on small-scale production can cause a loss in civic virtue because citizens focus their concerns elsewhere. Therefore, the environment that the Founding Fathers were exposed to, surrounded by small-scale production,…

    The Cherry Orchard: the Past in the Present

    The Cherry Orchard by Anton Chekhov is very much a play about the past. However, it is more specifically about breaking free from the past through change and acceptance. The consistent theme of memory in terms of both forgetting and remembering are evident throughout the play. The quote at the end of the play where Firs is forgotten and the cherry orchard is cut down is an important symbol of the past dying away and the characters moving on. Firs ends the play and he represents the past in both historical and personal terms in relation to Madame Ranevsky. The great cherry orchard is a symbol of the past, a past that carries different emotions for the various characters. However, each character is tied to the cherry orchard, and its representation of the past, either directly or indirectly and this is the string that they must cut and break free from.…
