Malerie Martin ENGL-2103-M03/ Literary Interpretation Dr. Robertson 3 November 2016 Continue On: A Hopeful Journey Ralph Waldo Emerson once said‚ “Life’s a journey‚ not a destination.” In the story “A Worn Path”‚ Phoenix‚ an elderly black woman takes it upon herself to challenge her inner strength to a long‚ interesting journey to town. In life we know that every individual is different and the way we chose to handle certain situations in our life is different as well. There are two kinds of

According to Schermerhorn‚ the communication process is a simple process of sending and receiving messages with attached meaning (2005). The process is further defined by having three elements‚ those

A WORN PATH This is a very powerful story set sometime after the Civil War I believe in the late 1860’s or 70’s for the old black women has stated that "I never did go to school for I was too old at the surrender." This leads me to believe that she would have been born somewhere around the 1850 and at the age of 14 would have been too old to go to school. It was time for Motherhood at that age. Her name is Phoenix‚ which by itself should be a hint to the reader for a Phoenix‚ was a large mythical

Dead Poets Society “Most men lead lives of quiet desperation.” I believe that this means that people live a life that they do not want to live. They want to do something else with their time but they find themselves stuck because of peer pressure and/or parents. Take Neal Perry for example. His father wanted him to be a doctor and he planned his whole life out for him. And all Neal really wanted to do was act but his dad was totally against it and he found himself torn between doing what makes

Dead Sea Scroll The settlement of Qumran is one kilometer inland from the northwest shore of the Dead Sea. The scrolls were found in eleven caves nearby‚ between 125 meters (e.g.‚ Cave 4) and one kilometer (e.g.‚ Cave 1) away. None were found within the settlement‚ unless it originally encompassed the caves. In the winter of 1946–47‚ Palestinian Muhammed edh-Dhib and his cousin discovered the caves‚ and soon afterwards the scrolls. John C. Trever reconstructed the story of the scrolls from several

“Shaun of The Dead” “Shaun of The Dead” is a zom-rom-com film directed by Edgar Wright and is set in a city in London. “Shaun of The Dead” is a ‘spoof’ of “Dawn of The Dead”. Wright uses lots of different techniques to make it humorous‚ such as stereotypical gags‚ classic British satires‚ subtle humour and many more. Edgar Wright conveys a sense of humour through the characters. The main character‚ Shaun‚ is not the typical character you would expect to try and save the world. Shaun

Entry for Week 1 -- Critical History of “The Dead” I found it interesting that the city of Dublin could be thought of as a major character of Dubliners and/or of The Dead. From everything I have read so far‚ it definitely is obvious that Joyce was struggling with Ireland’s apparent unwillingness to define itself‚ either as Roman Catholic or as Protestant. And also‚ he feels that religion is too much the focus of the country‚ too strict‚ too regimented. Schwarz writes on page 67 that Gabriel

‘The Dead’ by James Joyce is portrayed as someone who is very self-aware of his status in society‚ but ironically unaware of how much the dead can influence the living‚ which is a common topic within the short story. Throughout the narrative the belief that the world of the living and the world of the dead are interconnected is explored by most characters‚ who believe themselves as affected on some level by those who have passed. Mr. Conroy on the other hand is firmly set on believing the dead should
