Edward Irving Wortis's Old Wolf

293 Words1 Page

Old Wolf is the name of the book I have read. The author of Old Wolf is Edward Irving Wortis or AVI for short. The plot of the story is (rising action) a wolf pack leader is challenged and gets hurt then (climax) he wants to prove himself and gets hurt badly a raven helps after that (falling action) a boy helps him get food and water (resolution) wolf gets up and walks away before he is killed. . The setting of the book is in a forest with winter happening. My thesis is that the leader felt he was going to be denied as a leader because other pack members thought he would be weak or not powerful. Nashoba has changed throughout the book. With lots of key parts that changed him slowly. He never thought these things would happen to him or if

    According to Karl N. Llewellyn and E. Adamson Hoebel, making new laws in our societies helps us to become more discipline and safe and it also prevents us from crimes such as rape, sexual assault or harassment, violent crime fraud, robbery, murder etc due to a larger society which Hoebel called “heterogeneous”. Many people in the modern society can not make their own decisions without hearing or listening to the people in power such as the government (legislatures), police, lawyers/ judges. Just like the “Cheyenne community”, the community they come to together to solve conflicts between individuals by involving individuals or the community as a whole for the protection of themselves.

Since their conceptions in the 1800s, these conventions have been persistent in setting broader and stricter “rules” for war over time in regards to everything from ammunition and hospitals, to the treatment of both civilians and militants (human rights). These authoritarian standards that are written in black and

    ...ng to his domestication. White Fang is tamed by love and turns from a savage wolf into a loving and home-keeping dog. However through the incident in San Francisco we can see that White Fang can easily revert back to his old ways. During the ending of the novel an incident occurs when a convict, Jim Hall, breaks into Judge Scott's home to "wreak vengeance" on the man who "railroaded" him into prison. Judge Scott's life is saved by White Fang, who very nearly loses his own life before slashing the throat of the killer. Jim Hall is a mad dog that must be destroyed for the safety of respectable citizens. In his encounter with the convict, White Fang has suffered several bullet wounds and is critically injured. But White Fang beats the odds and lives to be christened; the Scott family now calls him “The Blessed Wolf”. He lives, because of his extraordinary natural toughness, and his legacy of the wild, thus this shows the great power that is his, the power that he relaxes into love and ease but still keeps ready in case there is need for it in the treacherous world. Most of this book concerns White Fang’s struggles with savage nature, Indians, dogs, and white men.
