  • Analysis Of The Best War Ever By Michael Cc Adams

    1500 Words  | 3 Pages

    Is it true Americans are rightfully notorious for creating inaccurate paradigms of what really happened in historical events Americans are tied to? Has America ever censored historical events in order to protect Americans innocent democratic reputation? After reading, “The Best War Ever” by Michael C.C Adams, I have found the answers to these questions to be yes. Some of the myths that Adams addresses in his book include: 1. America was innocent in world war two and was an ever acting protagonist in the war; 2. World war two or any war for that matter can be, or is a “good war” and bring prosperity to America; 3. War world two brought unity to Americans.

    Another similarity in the setting is that both short stories take place in a war setting, the Vietnam war and the Ireland war.

    In conclusion, both of the stories where quite griping as they were so uniquely strange. Flannery O’Connor compared to other authors by using her unique writing style. Also, from judging from these two stories we can know that she uses the same style in most of her works.

  • Gatsby versus Huckleberry Finn: A Battle between the Two Greatest

    The shared themes in both stories are on morality, society and class, lies and deceit, and education. The theme of morality meaning knowing and doing what is believed to be right or wrong in the midst of trials. Society and class shows how flawed humanity can be, and how with humanity’s differentiating between classes, there is degradation of other’s integrity. The theme lies and deceit being based on dishonesty is the longest road to travel. Education being a theme expressing how the different levels people have on education somehow invigorates people with the idea that it is okay to treat those on a lower “scholarly” level as if they

  • The Things They Carried

    1606 Words  | 4 Pages

    Joy Kogawa and Tim O’Brien: two authors that have wielded their mastery of the English language to yield literary masterpieces that reflect not only their own struggles, but the hardships of multitudes around them. In her acclaimed Obasan, Joy Kogawa illustrates the intense discrimination that was faced by Japanese-Canadians during World War 2, and provides many reflective anecdotes to give the reader some insight on her personal situation. Tim O’Brien accomplishes basically the same goal in The Things They Carried by giving the reader many brief stories about his time in the Vietnam War. These two books- though incredibly different on the surface - share a plethora of themes and symbology, as well as many similar events. They do not, however, emphasize or present these ideas in the same way. Each of these authors has a unique way of incorporating their own themes or values into their writing, which gives the reader an entirely different view of what may be happening.

  • This Way To The Gas versus On My First Son

    862 Words  | 2 Pages

    One of the first similarities of the two is that they are both told in the first person as well as being personal accounts. Ben speaks, as himself, about the death of his son and Borowski tells of events at a death camp that he was in during WWII. They both tell their stories through their own voices which adds a lot to the experience of reading. It allows the reader to except just how real the story is. Once the reader accepts that, then the reader is able to more fully understand and relate to the feelings of the authors especially because of how reality based they are. For example, in “On My First Son”, when Johnson says “Oh, could I lose all father now!”(Johnson, ln.5), the reader is able to feel the deep sorrow in that line. That is because it is told to the reader by Ben Johnson, the father of a dead son. When the story is made that personal, it is impossible to not share the passionate feelings that are expressed. Borowski causes this type of reaction in the reader as well but in a more indirect way. He does through his personal descriptions rather than personal expressions of feelings. One example is when he describes the dead babies in the box cars and explain...

    A commonality in the two themes is that freedom can’t survive for anyone when even the smallest child or strongest group are unwillingly sacrificed in order to achieve it. Both stories believe that freedom is shared among people, not reserved for the chosen. A difference is how the characters react to the theme. In “Harrison Bergeron”, people are too unintelligent and unaware to realize the injustice. However, the citizens of Omelas are extremely aware of what they are doing to the wretched child, but they choose to ignore it in order to maintain their happiness at whatever cost to their

  • Japanese Prisoners Of War Essay

    673 Words  | 2 Pages

    Prisoners of War were separated from their families, they were not allowed much contact with them either. Even though the prisoners were supposed to be able to communicate with their families through the International Red Cross, the Japanese did not stick to these terms. However, some internees would sneak out during their breaks to meet up with family members or friends. They would give them updates about the conditions in the civilian world. The British were stripped of their freedom and titles in society. Their self esteem was most likely damaged when they had to be road sweepers and do laborious work they would not usually have to do. They had to show proper respect to the Japanese soldiers by bowing whenever they passed by. If they did not do so, they would be severely punished. The Japanese separated the Prisoners of War by gender, male and female. Therefore, there was less interaction between genders. The Japanese also controlled the media and newspapers that the internees saw or read heavily. Thus, connections to the outside world was limited. Although, some British would hide a wireless. One example of where they kept it secretly was in the head of the broom and the legs of a table.The horrific torture the prisoners had to survive left a big impact even when out of the camp. Many had to attend rehabilitation to assimilate back to
