John Taylor Howling Wolf Analysis

When Cole arrives on the island, he is consumed by anger, bitterness, and an unwillingness to change. As soon as Edwin, a Tlingit elder, and Garvey leave, Cole sets fire to his constructed shelter and supplies, and jumps into the ocean to swim to freedom. Caught by the rising tide, he is unable to escape the island. In his first few days on the island, he has several encounters with a majestic, white bear called a Spirit Bear, and he is determined to kill it out of anger. One day, when he sees the bear, he stabs it with his knife and a makeshift spear. The bear is unfazed and instead viciously attacks Cole, breaking his hip and right arm as well as knocking him out. Left to die after the attack, Cole comes to realize his own vulnerability and

Even though their stories differ both show a deep connection the writers past and helps the reader how the events shaped their theme. E.B. White focuses heavily on the imagery in his narration of his trip to the lake. He tries to show his readers that he remembers all of the details of how the lake was, “There were cottages sprinkled around the shores, and it was farming country although the shores of the lake were quite heavily wooded” (White 459). White’s recollection of the lake trip shows his nostalgic tone and memories of the body of

For example, both of these paintings are of a man in a field. While the images have a similar image, they do have differences. In Winslow Homer’s painting the man in the field is cutting wheat with a scythe. While in Van Gogh’s the man is throwing seeds on the field. These two paintings were also done

I was seeing painting after painting in the museum and they all looked the same to me. As it came to the end of the tour I was worried I wouldn’t have an image I actually wanted to talk about, then something about the way this was painted made me fall in love with the painting. I'm not usually the person that falls in love with a painting and imagines all the things it could mean but when I saw the clarity of Roman Courtship and the colors I knew that this was the painting I wanted to talk about. Another work I saw in the Ringling that caught my eye was Circe Entertaining Odysseus at a Banquet by Italian artist Giovanni Paolo Panini.

Throughout this semester as a class we have gone over many different terminology, seen many artists from all different countries and time periods. We have also learned about different kinds of art and media that the Artist work with. Over the entire semester I have gained a greater appreciation and understanding for art. Taking all of the new information that I learned this semester I choose three pieces of artwork from the St. Louis Art Museum. Two are similar to each other and the other is very different.

Even though both authors write in the same type of style they differ in their themes, points of view, and symbols used to portray these

In chapters 14 and 15 of Into the Wild, Jon Krakauer becomes more than just an investigator or a narrator, he becomes a character. He tells his story of climbing the Devils Thumb, which exposes the similarities between himself and McCandless. This aids to his understanding of McCandless’s motivations, without ever meeting him, due to the parallels in their personalities and family issues.

The impressive thing about these artists is their ability to use their art in different ways. To raise awareness, to advertise, political statements, etc. Their works meant so much to many people, even Rosalynn Carter, the first lady, attended Norman Rockwell’s funeral. The difference between these artists is shown in their style and their popularity.

The Ojibwa Parable is a myth describing the existence of two “wolves” that govern our body: the Good one and Evil one. In the novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding, a group of boys is stranded on a deserted island due to a plane crash. With no adults to guide them, the boys display multitude traits of the wolves. Through their countless actions and difficult situations, Ralph is characterized as a Good wolf and Jack is seen as the Evil.

Mary Shelley and Edgar Allan Poe were Gothic novelists who lived and wrote in the 19th century. They both led unconventional and even controversial lives and their behavior could be described as unethical and scandalous. They both created characters who were inhuman and monstrous.

Also, in terms of style, Roy Lichtenstein’s way to use the strokes really inspired me, and I believe, using visible and heavy strokes is a sign that shows artist’s control on

The works of art I chose to compare and contrast are Memento Mori, "To This Favour", 1879 by William Michael Harnett, and Bull Skull, Fruit, Pitcher, 1939 by Pablo Picasso. The symbolism behind these two paintings are very similar. There are also some similarities in the composition of these two paintings, but there are many differences in the composition of these two paintings. The first symbolic similarity is that these paintings have a meaning of death.

John is in his “own world”. These two films differ as Bertie knew his inner struggle throughout the film therefore it is dull and shows his low self esteem (off centered shots). However John does not know his condition throughout the film and there is light colours to show his happy emotions and extreme close ups to help us follow his

The other was commissioned by the government much later. This is a very realistically styled romantic painting using colors like black,

Men are dogs. At least, that is what Angela Carter compares them to in her short story “The Company of Wolves.” In the story she sets up a village terrorized by vicious animals. The children carry knives when they leave the house, the farmers lock up their animals at night, and people lose loved ones. However, the villagers slowly begin to realize that the wolves they believed to be the culprits behind the bloodshed, are actually werewolves; men who turn into beasts. One young woman, completely innocent in life, meets a handsome boy in the woods on the way to her grandmother’s house. He is, of course, a wolf. The charming boy goes to her grandmother’s house and eats granny only to lie in wait for the young girl. She arrives, but instead of cowering in fear, the young girl throws her clothes into the fire and rips off the wolf’s, embracing him for a kiss and for the night. The two stay in bed until morning, together and calm. Through the uses of a rebellious and triumphant tone, symbolism, and repetition, Carter demonstrates that men are like beasts, but women can prevail by understanding the power in
