Superior writers use a vast number of well-used elements. It is key to use exceptional elements if you thrive to be a great writer. An example of a writer with higher-level elements is Ray Bradbury. Bradbury has a famous short story called "The Pedestrian." The "Pedestrian" is a futuristic story about a man who is not involved with the world.

Without the special visual aid and focus on the eyes, the contrasting portrayals of the (assumed) humans versus replicants in the story would essentially be lacking and non-distinctive; therefore, the rampant eye symbolism becomes extremely effective and usefully serves as a visual and metaphorical device for various events within the storyline.

girl, spitting on the white man’s laws, and reaping pleasure from “defiling his women.”1 He repudiates the notion that black men find white women attractive; rather, the white supremacy drills its idea of beauty into the black man simply by its omnipresence. From their youth, blacks were forced “to see the white woman as more beautiful and desirable than his own black woman.”2 Thus, the rape was a rebellion—a way to get back at the overlords. Cleaver’s fellow black convicts feel the same way about
a continuous condemnation of the American attitudes and values after the Great War in a liberal and dependent America. Adhering to a psychoanalytical perspective, F. Scott Fitzgerald portrays privileged American inhabitants through symbolism of omnipresence, characterization through apotheosis, and the contextual recurring theme of failure, to criticize the existential

Orwell attempts to convey that everything outside of the Inner Party’s control must be stopped by creating an omnipresence of the government described by Orwell as “always the eyes watching you and the voice enveloping you” (Orwell, 26).

The Double Wisdom of Evil in Paradise Lost In this essay, I will illustrate how, according to Satan in John Milton’s Paradise Lost, one truly “knows evil” and how this becomes evident in the ninth book of the epic poem that concerns the canonical story of the Fall of Man. Paradise Lost proposes that there is a dual strategy to truly knowing evil, which is illustrated by the two-edged rhetoric that Satan uses in the poem.

With the omnipresence of cellphones in modern culture, the universal use of text messaging should come as no surprise. Teenagers were among the first groups to utilize texting, as it serves as a quick and easy way to communicate with friends and family.

This tradition continues in modern advertising and the omnipresence of this tradition has made it so that "Women watch themselves being looked at" (Berger, 1973, p.47). Through the ages, and even in modern times, advertisements assume the man as the ideal spectator. Therefore this tradition acclimatized women to

In 'Night ', one of the key themes entails Eliezer’s struggle to uphold his faith in a compassionate God. Throughout this text, the writer highlights his loss of faith in various aspects. At the beginning of this narrative, Eliezer’s faith in God is unconditional. In an attempt to elaborate on the reasons behind this absolute faith and devotion to God, he asserts “Why did I pray?...Why did I live? Why did I breathe?” (Wiesel 34). Based on this indication, it is obvious that the writer believes
