What Role Does Graffe Play In Ender's Life

383 Words2 Pages

This chapter is built upon the relationships between the siblings as well as the role Graff plays within Ender’s life. The computer situation, which Graff tells Valentine about opens her eyes to the fact that there is much of Peter in her as there is in Ender, an example being Valentine and Peter working hand in hand for power. Valentine and Peter’s actions working to spread ideas in hope of rebellion demonstrate that the Wiggins will both have power in space as well as land (Earth). Although the duo has not yet started to rapidly spread their influence, it seems clear that Peter will get what he wants due to the fact that his intellect is matched only by his ambition, to which he will use to manipulate almost anyone.

  • Ender And His Friends Chapter Summary

    In Chapter 14 Ender and his friends were to believe their final evaluation is the last test and game before they go to battle against the buggers for real. But Ender and his companions believed these stimulators were just games they were playing against fake enemies. Not until they have succeeded their final test did General Graff and Mazer Rackham explain that these games they were playing were actually the real deal. I believe that the Command School authorities were justified on how they handled Ender’s and his peers final evaluation because sometimes lying and keeping the truth away from somebody for the good of humanity is worth the mistake that has been done. Without tricking Ender and his friends they would not take any necessary risks to battle

    In this response paper I will discuss what it means for a something to be a “cultural work” and how Ender’s Game qualifies as one. In particular, that Ender’s Game qualifies as a cultural work for many reasons, but the two I will be specifically focusing on are how our culture values someone who rises above misfortune and the fear of the unknown. In her book, Science Fiction: A Guide for the Perplexed, Sherryl Vint defines a cultural work as “…their role in imagining a world that is in some way different from the one we take for granted and their power to create mythologies that help us grasp the experience of human life in a world dominated by scientific thinking.”
