A Comparison Of Seedfolks By Maya Angelou

Both stories have the same author’s style, setting and animals as characters, and a human and animal connection. But, the stories are different because of the poetic structure, tame or wild animals, and simple of sophisticated diction. First, the author’s style is similar in “Predators” and “A Blessing”. Both of the poems have sound devices. For example, in “A Blessing” the author repeats the word “they” several times at the beginning of each line, “they ripple tensely, they can hardly contain their happiness” and “they bow shyly as wet swans.

Author and editorial writer, Brent Staples acknowledges this issue as well as experience many situations in which people distinguish him from others.

Although “Harrison Bergeron” by Kurt Vonnegut and Anthem by Ayn Rand are both dystopian pieces, their portrayal of love and marriage prodigiously differs. Firstly, the Marriage in “Harrison Bergeron” is free to anyone in the age limit. In “Harrison Bergeron” couples are able to get married to each other and live as a family.

In both of theses stories society believes that their barbaric traditions bring them equality and unity.

Textual Analysis In the readings "An American Childhood" by Annie Dillard and "Always Running" by Luis Rodriguez, the authors and their essays are very similar, but at the same time different in their own respective ways. Both authors use an array of verbs to string sentences together as well as to keep the narrative moving. Both these authors create a fast-paced chase like sequence of sentences and verbs to keep their essays interesting as well as getting their perspective and points across. In Annie Dillard 's "An American Childhood" the author begins the story letting us readers get an understanding of the main character describing her almost as a tomboy, "Boys welcomed me at baseball, too, for I had, through enthusiastic practice, what was weirdly known as a boy 's arm.

Her life changed after moving away from this town to college, where her darker-hued skin constantly stood out in a sea of white skin. Hurston uses epithets to express how she sees herself despite what others see. Religious motifs highlight the idea of all people being similar in the sense that we all live for the same reasons, and lastly imagery expresses how emotions can capture and change a person and their actions. “How it Feels to Be Colored Me” exemplifies the idea of humans being forced to accept stereotypes without considering what humans really are, which is much more than the color of one 's skin. The use of epithets produces a deeper meaning of the view one has of themselves by describing them and not their actions or looks.

Pudd'nhead Wilson features a lot of realism in that the book does seem like it corresponds with the time period and different cultures. This novel illustrates realism in that it shows the differences in language between cultures, it shows the societal views of the time, and it shows the education of the time. First, realism is illustrated in the differences in language and slang between the characters in the novel. Roxy at one point says, "No, dolling mammy ain't gwine to treat you so. De angels is gwine to 'mire you jist as much as dey does yo' mammy.

If fifty people were put into the same room and made to experience the same thing, every person would have a different story. The things that are endured shape the characters, but how they choose to cope with what is handed to them, shapes them even more. The characters featured the most in Storming Heaven are going through rough things, but each character is different. The two poems that were selected were A Place with Promise and Tobacco and Curry Leaves, both of these show how a place can shape a person. The environment that the characters are in contribute to how they act, how they live, and the type of people they are around.

As a Latina been raised in the USA, I considered Latinos been a multi culture ethnic group. We do share some customs but no all, one of the distinctive are the fact that even though we speak the same language , our accent, pronunciation and some words can be same, but have different meanings, for example Dominican, Cuban and Puerto Rican. We all come from the Caribbean but our music, food, customs and some religious beliefs are totally different. Every country has their unique flavor; they own flags, celebrations, etc. therefore that allow some discrimination because everybody thinks their own kind is better than the others Latinos.

Mood gave the novel tension, surprise, and sadness which help make the novel more interesting and a meaningful theme. Imagery in the novel created a unique sense of language and created better images of moral courage of the characters. Harper Lee’s theme of moral courage in her novel To Kill A Mockingbird can be compared in reality in the same way. In reality, most people are treated unequally and the history of slaves are both compared with similarity in the novel. Moral courage can be anywhere, like in books and even in the real

Alexie’s major themes in his stories are big and tough to talk about but he uses wit to speak to all people. The problems that Alexie talks about can span from racial inequality to lack of options and opportunities in the Native American community. There are many reasons as to why an author would choose to use comedic aspects in his or hers writing. One major reason is it keeps the mood light, and even as the story/poem gets heavy, there is a lightness to it. Another reason is humor can often heal old wounds.

Diversity America is a referred to as the “melting pot.” It is a place full of diversity and different beliefs. Let’s take a look at diversity for a change. This would mean that many people live in very different circumstances. Some of us have the luxury to live peacefully acquiring everything we want without a struggle.

They give insight into what values are shared and how people fabricate tales around them. The Japanese Tsuru no Ongaeshi is brief and melancholic, the French Bluebeard displays a violent and anti-feminist ideal to a woman’s disobedience, and the Middle Eastern The History of Ajib is a long, densely written narrative that exhibits a more complex handling of language and character. It is a mark of human ingenuity and human nature in how each civilisation has invented such divergent, yet not entirely dissimilar, tales that all revolve on the same
