Gary Soto's Like Mexicans: Personal Experiences
1866 Words - 7 Pages

.... as a hired slave for minimal income and keeping your mouth shut. After all, you were nothing more than a wetback who came to America to reap her benefits.(This ludicrous ideology is still present today) Gary Soto's grandparents and my grandparents, although they ma y be a generation behind one another, I am sure were exposed to many of the same hardships and or social barriers. It was not uncommon back then as it is not uncommon today for Mexican families with minimal work skills to be forced into the fields to work with their children alongside in hopes of escaping poverty. For the most part such families remained poverty stricken due to unfair and illegal wages and work ....


Ordinary Men

.... successful in their civilian lives. Five of them were members of the Nazi party, but none were in the SS. Of thirty-two remaining officers twenty-two were Party members, but none were members of the SS. Sixty-three percent of the rest of the battalion were blue-collar workers. About thirty-five percent were lower-class workers. The remaining two percent were middle-class but not greatly successful. Many were in their late 30s, too old for active army duty, but just right for police duty. They were old enough to know of political ideology other than that of the Nazi party, even though most were members. Without a doubt, the men of this battalion greatly contributed to the f ....


Study Skills

.... that will be useful through our whole lives. The section on talking lecture notes was an important section. If you are going to succeed in a class, you need to take good notes. These will help you study for the exams and will be the key to succeeding on the tests. I also learned that it is impossible for me to sit in my room at night and expect to get my work done. There are too many distractions and it is impossible to get my work done with friends coming in and out of my room. I realized that I needed to go to the library where it is quiet and there are no distractions. I get much more of my work done now that I actually go to the library and concentrate. I am glad ....


Oedipus Vs. Everyman
720 Words - 3 Pages

.... he is the slayer of his father. Everyman, in the first scene, quarrels with Death about going on the long journey. He pleads for even a few more days before making him take this voyage. Both characters argue “Not me…it can’t be!…” Both also look for a person or reason to displace their burden in order to avoid facing their strife. The second stage according to Kubler Ross is Anger. Oedipus becomes fierce and defiant upon Jocasta’s telling him that he should stop searching for the truth and he doesn’t need to know the answers. This is a stage that appears to mix a bit of denial with anger for Oedipus, but the distinctions, do exist ....

.... religion depending on the point of view but Hindu people describe themselves as henotheisitic, which is the belief in one god without denying the existence of others.

The Outsider By Albert Camus V
1137 Words - 5 Pages

.... The priest, being of the same profession in both books and trying to accomplish the same kind of tasks, have a totally different effect on the two protagonists. In The Outsider the priest changes the whole attitude that Meursault has to life, whereas in The Trial the priest tells Joseph K. how his life actually is. "Why do you refuse to see me?" This question was asked by the priest and was meant for Meursault. Normally, if a person is convicted to death, he will see a priest before the sentence is executed. Meursault did not do that. He profusely refused to see the priest and why should he? He "did not believe in god." Meursault did not care, as he did not care if his ....

The man Shakespeare does not even ....
