Working on as a sharecropper was no better than being a slave after a few years of harvest the landowners have you so far in debt you have to give them 100% of the crop, little to no pay and then you are a slave. I hadn’t let that happen to my wife, daughter, and I, not yet. Everyday I was up at six and didn’t return home until nine except for supper. The sun slowly had begun to set and I had slowly begun to finish my work. My daughter’s head bobbed up and down as she picked crop and placed it in her wicker basket, my wife could barely be seen in the rows of wheat, the scythe in her hand moved swiftly, like me she worked like a bull trying...

...Cathy remains unshakably evil, even to her death. All the other characters that possess evil, besides Caleb, follow this rigid caste, never gaining the opportunity to decide between good and evil. Juxtaposed against Cathy is the character Samuel Hamilton. Samuel Hamilton is always considered to be “a fine man” (Steinbeck pg. 138) by the townspeople, because he is a character that remains unshakably good. As the evil characters remain evil throughout the novel, like Cathy, the good characters remain good, like Samuel Hamilton. Caleb is not like these characters whatsoever. Using Caleb’s ambiguous personality, Steinbeck employs the device of contrast to emphasize the specific trait that Caleb possesses that the others do not: the ability to choose between good and evil. This serves to provide evidence to support the main theme of the work: the application of choice. Choice is what gives Steinbeck’s novel its flavor and impressiveness. Without the character of Caleb Trask, and the details of Caleb’s moral struggles and frequent decisions, the concept of choice would be much less emphasized throughout the novel. Therefore, Caleb’s moral ambiguity is extremely significant to the work as a whole, because it supports the novel’s theme: timshel, or the ability of all people to choose their life’s...

...Warfare has no limits. You're being annihilated, and that leg of yours is bleeding too much. You killed a man yesterday, and you spoke to his corpse. You told him after this is over, you'll spend the rest of your life looking after his family. Who's profiting here? The leaders and the generals gain fame, and many others profit financially. But you're doing the dirty work. One of your comrades says, "Wait a minute, where are you going?" And you say, "Leave me alone, I'll be back in a minute." Then you walk out into the woods of death hunting for a piece of sausage. You can't see how anybody in civilian life has any kind of purpose at all. All their worries, all their desires – you can't comprehend...

...Nordic Journal of African Studies 14(3): 368–383 (2005) The Yorùbá Animal Metaphors: Analysis and Interpretation ADÉSOLÁ OLÁTÉJÚ University of Ibadan, Nigeria ABSTRACT The paper undertakes a study of animal metaphors in the Yorùbá language with a view to highlighting the stylistic and communicative potentials of these metaphors. To achieve the set objective, the animals – domestic and wild – involved in metaphors and their individual distinctive characteristic features that motivate their metaphorical interpretations are highlighted. The paper also discusses the sources of animal metaphors, which are said to be located in three areas, namely: the Yorùbá naming culture, animal characteristic habits and behaviour, and the Yorùbá poetry. In discussing the metaphorical processes involved in the interpretation of animal-related metaphors, a two-dimensional approach is adopted: stylistic and cultural. In the first, the semantic features of animals involved in metaphors are decomposed into semantic markers that are of two types. The first is the High Priority Semantic Markers (HPSM), which determine the cognitive/conceptual meaning of the metaphors, and the second is the Low Priority Semantic Markers (LPSM), which determine the secondary metaphorical interpretation. Animal metaphors involve transference of meanings, and whatever meanings or interpretations are assigned to a particular animal metaphor, are culture and context dependent. The paper concludes with stylistic and...

...What is the definition of a true hero to you? Each hero has a different meaning and role to play in order to accomplish a task. A hero doesn’t have to a be a buff person like many people think today. Famous or not, big or small, anybody in this world can be a hero. They just have to sacrifice themselves for what is right and say what they know is righteous. In the epic The Odyssey, I consider Odysseus a hero. An example of a situation Oddyseus was an actual hero was when he helped his men escape the Cyclops. According to The Odyssey, Oddyseus “tied then silently together, twinning cords of willow from the ogre’s bed; then slung a man under each middle one.” Oddyseus tied each of his men together under a sheep and tried his best to make sure...
