The Chief Rabbit At Cowslip's Warren

264 Words2 Pages

At the Sandleford Warren, the rabbit that held complete control was the Chief Rabbit, Threarah. He ruled as a totalitarian, having complete control over the warren. Sure, the people prospered, but their were distinguishing levels of rabbits; many did not fare too well because of this (the poor rabbits starved to death and were taken advantage of). Threarah made sure the warren had no interaction with the outside world; thus, it was secure in an in-secure way (having no way to know how to protect itself from the outside world.) When the men came to kill off the warren, the rabbits were disorganized and had no way to survive.

At Cowslip’s warren, it was every rabbit for himself, and there was no real form of government. Everyone lived happy

  • History Of The Rabbit's Foot Company

    In early 1900, Patrick “Pat” Chappelle founded The Rabbit’s Foot Company (or, The Rabbit Foot Minstrels) as a roaming, tented minstrel company. Chappelle, equipped with a strong entrepreneurial spirit and notable talent as a banjo guitarist, was to become the figurehead of one of the most successful vaudevillian entities in U.S. history, and, perhaps most importantly, the first exclusively black-owned and operated traveling variety shows in the country. Despite this evolution to “variety show,” The Rabbit’s Foot Company “came forth in the unmistakable form of a minstrel show.” To define, minstrel shows oft manifested as sketch, musical, and variety performances that targeted and mocked black people using blackface and exaggerated stereotypes

  • Stereotypes In Richard Adams Watership Down

    “My Chief Rabbit has told me to defend this run and until he says otherwise I shall stay here,” is what Bigwig answers as death was likely staring at him face to face (Adams 457). Even though Bigwig knows that Woundwort, the intimidating rabbit and antagonist he was facing, could no doubt kill him, he decides to stand his ground and do what was best for the good of his fellow friends. Richard Adams’ novel Watership Down expresses how a strong sense of community can accomplish near impossible tasks when there’s synergy between every member of the group.

  • The Significance Of The Rabbit Motifs In The River King

    1164 Words  | 5 Pages

    In Hoffman’s The River King, the rabbit motif accentuates the idea that the passiveness of innocence corrupted in communities is a direct result of dominant figures holding power over the vulnerable individual. Gus and the Chalk House boys are a prime display of the relationship between dominant figures and the ones they take power over, and the torment of Gus and the rabbits portrays the innocence of the underclassmen being beaten down. The Chalk House boys are shown to be consistently injuring rabbits, and it’s seen as a very frequent and passive event for them—they exert their dominance by “suggest[ing] to the new boys that they look for one of the rabbits found in the meadows and the woods. These small, shy creatures were easily caught

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of Rabbit Hole By Kathryn Schulz

    “The typical rabbit hole, by contrast, is between four and six inches wide at the opening and slants downward several feet at a shallow angle: a challenging environment for a free fall, even for someone as small as Alice,” (Schulz). Schulz explains that rabbit holes are much smaller than other burrows; exposing the irony behind the phrase itself. What would typically be considered insignificant relative to the sizes of other animals’ burrows, is used to describe a long and expansive place far from where it originally began. This information about the comparative sizes of animal burrows adds to the exposition on the literal origin of the phrase, helping the readers to understand and grasp the context of the

    The outcome of a discovery does not always have a positive outcome for all parties involved, whether it is a rediscovery of past knowledge or the uncovering of new information, both may serve to affirm or challenge beliefs, resulting in different ramifications for individuals and their worlds. The author and illustrator of allegorical picture book ‘The Rabbits’ Shaun Tan and John Marsden employs ideas of historical context relating to colonialism and the loss of culture and freedom that took place throughout the process, similarly to Shakespeare’s tragicomedy play ‘The Tempest’, where the exploitation of the character Caliban is repeatedly highlighted revealing the dystopic turn of events the native people would have experienced after the

  • Animal Symbolism In John Steinbeck's Of Mice And Men

    Lennie is excited about them because they'll be furry and silky to the touch, but it also is known that Lennie tends get a little too rough with whatever he pets. This also acts as a distinct parallel to the very unattainability of Lennie and George's dream in the sense that it is so impossible to achieve the perfect lifestyle without a complication coming in the way. This is much like how Lennie’s ideal life involves possessing an abundance of rabbits to pet, where in all reality this can never happen, since Lennie is incapable of being gentle with any soft, cuddly animal that he desires. In the end, the reasons that displayed animal symbolism included Candy's dog getting shot, which foreshadowed future events, the origin and meaning of Of Mice and Men, and the theme of rabbits.

    In the Rabbit Proof Fence, Phillip Noyce wanted us to think about the importance of family and the motivation it can give you to struggle through hardships. This motivation was crucial in getting the girls home which is why the bond between Molly and her mother is so essential. A more negative relationship in the film was between Mr. Neville and the girls. I think Noyce created this relationship to showcase the power of the white men over the indigenous people of Australia. When Mr. Neville says “I’m authorising their [the girls] removal.”
