Equiano was just a kid at this time period, and it was common for slaves to undergo this sort of pressure that young. Many kids were taken from families as he was, so they could grow into slavery and become used to the ways. Equiano was in an area with his fellow Africans but felt lost as he was around men with different colored skin, that had "funny" language to him. Equiano witnessed many things during his slavery on the ship. Slaves weren't fed and were flogged for not eating.

If he seemed too interested in what the man found, Bigger fears he will be suspected of the murder, so he only goes forward slightly. Also, he feels his lungs aren 't getting any air in because of his nervousness and fearfulness towards being arrested since what the man is looking at is pieces of Mary’s burned bones. Bigger thinks of his lungs as a furnace since they both could not get air in. Bigger felt fearful of being incarcerated and felt as though he could not breathe. The furnace in the Dalton’s home also could not get air in it, but it was because Bigger did not want to clean it in fear of finding Mary’s bones.

This helps readers understand how little life he has left and he is not in fact truly living but just surviving. At times he does not even want to be doing the simple task of breathing but just quit.

She only married you because I was poor and she was tired of waiting for me. It was a terrible mistake, but in her heart she never loved anyone except me" (130).

“A Sorrowful Woman” examines the detrimental effects of the mother’s repressed sexuality on her small family, as well as how addiction and isolation hasten her descent into madness. The mother denies her sexuality for fear of retributions and judgements from her family and by society. Her repressed feelings have accumulated over the years and resulted in a subconscious hatred for her husband and son. Godwin communicates how little they mean to the woman by never even revealing their names.

She doesn't seem to have many friends or anything going outside school because the reason she was in detention was that she had nothing better to do so she was just there to be there.   According Marcia’s theory Allison is facing identity diffusion because she has no real choice in her life about her identity. She is not expected by her parents for anything and does not seems to have to make a choice at all.

Contrary to popular belief at the time, women play highly significant roles towards heroes and the male figures in The Odyssey. They give them aid, try to trick them, or seduce them with their irresistible looks. The women may not play the hero or partake in the main conflict, but they remain in the background, influencing the men in many ways. There are many other roles that women play, but these are the most

For example, he states, “I had never spoken to her, except for a few casual words, and yet her name was like a summons to all my foolish blood” (187). In other words the narrator has never talked to Mangan’s sister and therefore does not even know her name (187). Since he does not know the girls name it shows her insignificance and how the narrator actually likes the idea of Mangan’s sister but not her as a person. In reality, it is not usual to become infatuated with someone you do not know, and the fact that he is somewhat “in love” with a girl he does not know shows he is naïve. The narrator decides to go to the bazaar and contemplates on what to buy Mangan’s sister.

However, that curiosity killed her spirit and the dialogue shows that. Toward the end she unveils the meager illusion and shows that she still has a foot in her old life, but keeps the other in high society. Her wealth ultimately causes her unhappiness and fear of living between two ruined lives. The dialogue of the poem portrays a situation where the facade of wealth and glamour do not always hold up to its expectations. Hardy’s use of literary devices in “The Ruined Maid” presents the consequence of doing anything

More slaves were brought on board, including a large black man named Arthur, who, had been kidnapped from freedom. Then they continued downriver again. As Solomon befriended Arthur and Robert, the three of them plotted to overthrow their captors and escape. However,

He planted atrocious seeds in the minds of slaves, carefully cultivated them, and over a time period the seeds grew in something disastorous. One thing that has erupted in our culture is blacks fighting amongst one another. As mentioned earlier, Willie Lynch’s goal was to get blacks to fight among themselvse for the simplest of reasons. We can definetly see this on a wide scale today. It may not be everywhere, but in many instances blacks fight over things that are irrelevant in the time we are living.

This would make anyone feel isolated because every time they try to help or speak they get shut

In today’s world, there is a stereotype of the typical Southern woman who always has her hair and nails done to perfection, kind, and is the ideal wife. However, Drewitz-Crockett goes on to argue that “people praised a woman by saying she is a fine woman and a hard worker, back in twentieth century.” Back then, work was appreciated, whether that entailed household chores, child birth, or farm work––that is how Robert Morgan portrays Julie Richards in his novel, Gap Creek. In Robert Morgan’s novel, Julie Richards is represented as strong, hardworking, and knowledgeable about her surroundings in South Carolina.

Everyday people find the courage to do things they never thought they could do. Some people think courage comes from how strong and brave you are, but I disagree. In To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, the main character, Scout, and several other characters, go through events and challenges that change their lives, especially the Tom Robinson trial, which exposed Scout to the evils of racism and stereotyping. Although courage is represented in many ways in the book, I believe courage is the byproduct of overcoming challenges. Miss Maudie had a different view on things like racism and people in Maycomb, which shows how courage is the byproduct of overcoming challenges.
