    At the dawn of the 1770s, American colonial resentment of the British Parliament in London had been steadily increasing for some time. Retaliating in 1766, Parliament issued the Declaratory Act which repealed most taxes except issued a reinforcement of Parliament’s supremacy. In a fascinating exchange, we see that the Parliament identifies and responds to the colonists main claim; Parliament had no right to directly tax colonists who had no representation in Parliament itself. By asserting Parliamentary supremacy while simultaneously repealing the Stamp Act and scaling back the Sugar Act, Parliament essentially established the hill it would die on, that being its legitimacy. With the stage set for colonial conflict in the 1770s, all but one

    there was something about the people from there that made him think they shouldn’t be in his house.” [Ch.15 p.166] These are Bruno’s thoughts towards Shmuel, which came across quite surprising considering they had been spending lots of time together. This could be a demonstration of inner racism Bruno has or simply just an observation he makes to how Shmuel looks compared to his family. “Do you know this boy?...

    Once the family moves, the mother soon finds out that they live near a concentration camp. When she finds out, fights between her and her husband (also Bruno’s dad) which distances them from each other. Not only does it weaken their marriage, but they also do it in front of Bruno, which, as a kid would not be good because at a young age like that, they are extremely highly influenced by their parents and the people around them. Bruno continues to become more and more curious about what he refers to it as “the farm,” but is really a concentration camp and he continues to go and visit Schmuel from the other side of the chain-link. Lastly, the teacher that comes to teach Bruno and his sister exclusively seems to be extremely interested in WWII, which, as previously stated, can influence bruno, which made him more curious, which ultimately led to the death of both Bruno and Schmuel.

    I am very excited to analyze and review my close friend, Lizzy Klingens art piece, “Sheets”. I was able to see it in the Worth Ryder Gallery at UC Berkeley, it was a part of the Fall 2015 Honors Studio Exhibition held last week. Although the artist and piece I chose are new and contemporary, the work Klingen creates is compelling and beautifully done. Klingen is interested in her human form and how her perceptions of her self determine and shape her. This was another reason I chose Klingen, we live in the age of “selfies” but selfies are more than just a cute picture of yourself, it is a way to explore yourself and your body.

Originally Anne had felt like her world was crashing in on her, but her father maintained a positive attitude and encouraged Anne to be grateful and happy she was alive. Finally, “The Boy in the Striped Pajamas: A Fable” says Bruno looked at Shmuel’s hand in disbelief, and noticed how bony and malnourished they were.

    Le Morte d’Arthur and “Lancelot” tell a story about the same character, Lancelot, however they differ greatly because of the time period they were written in.

Le Morte d’Arthur was written by Thomas Malory around 1485 and is one of the first publications that explains the Arthurian character Lancelot. Malory describes how Lancelot is the greatest knight in Camelot, but he also tells of Lancelot’s darker side, his affair with Queen Guinevere.

    In the boy in striped pyjamas author, John Boyne took the approach of writing this novel with the point of view of a naïve young child. This was done very well throughout the book.

Another aspect used by John Boyne was the innocence on a child, how open minded they’re and the point no one is born a racist. Small hints were dropped during the books this was due to the little education about the horrific times that were happening.
