.... away to our own mental classroom of deep sleep. This deep sleep is a common occurrence at Jesuit Prep. Yet, every time the teachers bore us to sleep, our future is hurt by our loss of vital information to help us continue through High School College. As humbly as I may, I propose to solve this problem and help the students of Jesuit Prep enjoy these classrooms of boredom. This proposal, deeply thought out to solve the common problem of students sleeping and hurting their future lives and careers is to place table top dancers in every classroom. I have worked out the details entailing the added cost of these daily dancing ladies. A well-known friend of mine, who o ....

Heart Of Darkness 3
440 Words - 2 Pages

.... is considered a sin, Through the use of loaded language, Conrad assumes a direct relationship between the story of Adam and Eve to the man who hung himself. As Marlow and his companions walked through the countryside, they eventually wound up in a different location, an “inhabited devastation” where there are people, a place where sinners reside. This is a large contrast from where Marlow started out, which was seemingly the Garden of Eden. Reading the section of the story that I did consider the Garden of Eden, I felt quite empty, as if it was a place where only Marlow and his companions were. Conrad used detail in this section which really made me pick up on t ....


Huck Finn's Use Of The Tall Tale
336 Words - 2 Pages

.... in the story, Huck uses his skill to fabricate a story that keeps a skiff of slave-hunters away from Jim: " 'Well, there's five niggers run off to-night, up yonder above the head of the bend. Is your man white or black?'...'He's white' " (110). Huck's tall tales are used for the survival of both Huck and Jim, and Jim knows this.

An example of this is when he is caught as a stow-away on a raft and his original story is not believed by the crew: "Now, looky-here, you're scared, and so you talk wild. Honest, now, do you live in a scowl, or is it ....

.... around it. One of the main suggestions of the article is the functioning of the inner oral narratives as forms of seduction, to be more specific, seductions into a promise.

The two main examples for this are the Monster’s as well as Frankenstein’s story, but the themes of seductive narration and promises can be found also elsewhere in the novel. The Monster’s desire is to be loved by someone. When he realises that not only the DeLaceys but every human being will reject him because of his uglyness, he tells Frankenstein his story in ord ....
