    Haunted Courage And The Way To Rainy Mountain

    The texts, “Undaunted Courage” and “The Way To Rainy Mountain” depict the land as a spiritual entity that’s worth being worshipped and respected as shown by man’s praise of it. The way man, rather than exploit it for profit, respects the land through animism shows their gratitude for it. From the detailed descriptions that give the reader an illustration of what man has seen, it is clear to say that man had this religious relationship again, but was also in tune with the lay of the land.…

    The Hero's Quest: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

    “All stories consist of a few common structural elements found universally in myths, fairy tales, dreams and movies” stated screenwriter Christopher Volger (“The Writers Journey”). The traditional hero quest plotline is seen anywhere from old Greek myths to the blockbuster films of today. All hero quests have the same set of steps; some are harder to define then others. The steps of the hero quest include; the call, the threshold, the descent, trials and ordeals, the abyss, transformation, atonement and finally the return. The call is the first step in a traditional hero quest. The Call invites the Initiate into the adventure (Thompson and Harris). Before the call the Initiate has no intention of being called to something bigger. The Initiate may feel that something is missing in life, and during the call the Initiate may refuse it; eventually to revoke that decision and go to the world of adventure (Thompson and Harris). The threshold is the point when the Initiate leaves the known to enter the unknown. It is the “jumping off point” between everyday life and adventure (Thompson and Harris). The Initiate may go unwillingly or willingly to adventure. This is also the step where the Initiate may inherit or find a mentor. The descent is not literally descending into something, but going deeper and deeper into the unknown (Thompson and Harris).…

    Nietzsche's Lightning

    When describing the lightning and the flash, Nietzsche is alluding to the human tendency to disassociate two things that are related. This may be because lightning is the descriptor and the flash is the action, which leads humans to separate the two. Nietzsche describes this mental process as “taking the latter for an action… separates. strength from expression of strength.” The lightning and the flash is related to the lambs and the birds of prey because it is impossible to separate, and blame, the birds of prey from their strength: their tendencies to kill. It would be as equally impossible to separate and blame the lambs for their weakness as their weakness functions as a way to protect themselves. The lambs do not understand this and thus…
