Oedipus And Othello: Protagonists As Tragic Figures
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. As protagonists, both Oedipus and Othello ultimately ended up as tragic figures as a direct result of their inability to alter the course of their lives. Defining this particular concept calls for one's close interpretation of what the protagonist's role truly represents; with that, it becomes quite simple to understand how the lead characters can so easily slip into the tragic state they eventually inhabit. Through their difficult and sometimes life-changing experiences, both Oedipus and Othello come to recognize what it is their own self-knowledge has gained through their struggles. When assessing the integral components that comprised each character, it is important to determine just how much of their actions were motivated by fate or free will; summation of all applicable elements will likely lead one to conclude that determinism played a more significant role. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Hemingway vs. Joyce / 'Just Representations of Nature'
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper examining Samuel Johnson's opinion that no literature will endure the test of time except that which reveals and explores situations and characteristics that are recognizable, that most of us share, and that are common to people across the boundaries of time and space. The paper compares Ernest Hemingway's 'A Clean, Well-Lighted Place' and James Joyce's 'Araby' in view of Johnson's dictum, arguing that Hemingway's story fulfills the requirement better than Joyce's because its theme is more easily accessible to the general reader. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Self-Realization in Three War Novels
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper which discusses the quest for a deeper sense of self as depicted in three novels: Ernest Hemingway's A Farewell To Arms, Timothy Findley's The Wars, and Joy Kogawa's Obasan . The paper observes that while a major life-crisis is not necessary in order to spur on this important personal journey, it is nonetheless true that most of us go through life without doing any particular self-analysis until a crisis strikes -- and then self-analysis becomes necessary for psychic survival. Bibliography lists three sources.

The Great Gatsby Vs. The Sun Also Rises
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. A common thread between F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby and Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises is the strong sexual orientation theme.

The writer compares and contrasts the attitudes and actions of the characters with regard to how their sexual orientation affects the outcome of the story. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Pablo Picasso, Leonardo Da Vinci, Daniel Defoe And Harriet Beecher Stowe: Influences Past And Present

Use Of Nature As Escape
[ send me this paper ]
The writing of the early part of this century and late nineteenth century was often defined as 'modern' by way of the propensity of the authors of that era to address the underlying psychological motivations for behavior. Unfortunately, this often resulted in a self analysis that was unbearable to the character and the inner conflict ended in cessation of life, lifestyle and, or the person as they had been before self evaluation. This 6 page paper argues that in The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne, Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, Ernest Hemingway's The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber, The Awakening by Kate Chopin, Miss LonelyHearts and Day of the Locust by Nathaniel West, The Sound and the Fury by Faulkner and Call It Sleep by Henry Roth, nature plays a pivotal role as symbol and in reality in the examination of the self and is used as an escape from the lives and conflicts of the characters. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper comparing the ability of Hester Prynne and Bigger Thomas in these novels by Nathaniel Hawthorne and Richard Wright, respectively, to effectively communicate difficult concepts to those who could help them.

Bibliography lists 6 sources..
