Overall Review/Comparison and Contrast of Novel & Film

My overall review in the novel The Color Purple is very outstanding. I enjoyed the storytelling of what Alice Walker (the author of the novel) presents to the readers and the introduction of each of her characters into life. As I was reading the novel, I'm starting to praise Celie because she is a special type of woman that have a heart and she wouldn't be bitter to anyone around her. Celie befriend with an ambiguous Shug Avery and there was a bond between these two woman that make Celie very comfortable for her to hang with. Along the way, Shug helped Celie on her journey to self-realization. Celie is by far my interesting character in The Color Purple.

There are many comparison between the film and novel The Color Purple. It both shows true depiction of the position of African American women in their society. The film that is directed by Steve Spielberg and the novel that is written by Alice Walker both showed a story about love and the survival between two sisters. Both the film and the novel had an obstacles that both the sisters had to deal with. Both had the same themes like womanhood, resolutions, etc. For womanhood, it expressed through the growth and race identity for Celie. These are the comparison for the novel and film of The Color Purple

There are some differences toward one another in The Color Purple. One of the differences is the writing of the letters. In the novel, Celie write letters back from her little sister Nettie, but in the film, Celie didn't. The way that she uses the word God in the film and novel is indifferent because all of Celie's letters are addressing to God, but in the movie, she praises in God that she can survive through all of the risks. The book gives us a deep insight into the character like Celie, but in the film, it wasn't as deep as it seemed. In the novel, it stay true to the overall message and even though the film is trying to stay positive just like in the novel, the movie is not staying true to its promise. These are the differences for the novel and film of The Color Purple.

Letter To Ralph Ellison

Dear Ralph Ellison,

           It is such a honor to read one of your famous novel called ''Invisible Man''. I believe that your novel is relevant in today's society. The reason is that this novel creates ideas despite the difficulties to follow up those claims. This novel consists of two different communities that don't see eye-to eye and how black and white community were treated not only in this novel, but also in the real world. I am pleased with how you reveal the stereotype of African Americans and how it was the turning point in each of these communities as this story moves on. As an author like yourself, invisible man is not what others people think of this word; It means to be construed by others as a collection of general stereotypes rather than an actual, individual person. There was one time in my life where I considered myself invisible and I maintain my ability to break it by revealing my true identity. I believe that many people who read your novel extend to the invisible man living out other's views of his identity. In conclusion, I think that your novel will convince others to read and understand what going on and what is truly the definition of  ''Invisible Man''. If you read this letter, I would like to say thank you for your time to read why your novel is relevant in today's society.



                 Sincerely Yours,

                   Derrick Dickerson


            

Invisible Man Chapter 7

1.  What device appears in the vet’s advice to the narrator, after he tells him to “come out of the fog”?

The device that appears in the vet's advice to the narrator is probably a metaphor.

2 .  What does it mean when the vet tells the narrator to be his own father?

When the vet tells the narrator to be his own father, I think that the vet wanted the narrator to find the opportunities that is expected of him.

3.  What allusion is used to describe the narrator’s arrival in Harlem?

The allusion that is used to describe the narrator's arrival in Harlem is in the Old Testament in the story of Jonah. He comparing the experiences of the narrator to Jonah as if they both was lost in their first arrival in a new place and a new environment.

Invisible Man Themes

  The three prevalent themes throughout the novel thus far is racism, true identity, and ambitious. The reason that I choose racism as my theme is because the narrator had experienced racism of others at the battal royal. In the beginning of the novel, he referenced Booker T Washington in his speech saying that blacks should cooperate with the whites that are in power. The reason for true identity is that a young man wanted to know how to define himself and it clearly shows that the young men is looking for his true identify and despite the narrator's claim at the beginning of the novel, I don't think that it is something that he necessary chosen. The reason for ambitious is that the novel is building into a series of hopes and desperate expectations, like his promise for a college that is unknown at this time.

The road in the first paragraph is used as a metaphor because the narrator has to follow the white line with Mr. Norton.

2. What is the rhetorical purpose of the founder's statue?

Since the statue is a white man figure, the narrator knew that the background of his school was slavery and segregation.

3. How are the diction and syntax used in the description of the trustees' arrival at Founder's Day?

The way that the white millionaire arrived was kinda ironic in a way.

The tone that Trueblood uses to tell the story of his incest is very innocent. Trueblood was very honest about not completing the act. It was probably his self-conscious.

The white community rewards the family for racial expectation, but the black community strikes back by shaming them.

11. Why would Trueblood's wife bring Aunt Cloe over?

Trueblood's wife bring Aunt Cloe over because she was going to give daughter an abortion.

12. Why do you think Trueblood receives so much more charity from the white community than from his own?

I think that Trueblood receives so much charity from the white community than from his own because the white community wanted the black community to look bad.

13. Why do you think Mr. Norton gives Trueblood $100?

I think that Mr. Norton gives Trueblood $100 just for his own belief. Since Mr. Norton wants to live up to his race, he decided it was right to give him 100 bucks.

Reflection of the Adventure of Hucklebery Finn

Mark Twain is the author of an inspiring novel called, The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn. The main character in this novel is Huck, who had an up- and down throughout his life whether it was Douglas and his sister Watson who tried to educate him in a bad way. His father has drinking problems and he mistreated him to the point where he physically abuse him. Jim and Tom were the only ones who always be there for Tom. Huck and Tom were different races, but the relationship between both Huck and Tom was very strong to the point where Huck feels like Tom is like a brother to him. I believe that Jim and Tom are very close to one another because Jim doesn't want anything happened to Huck and Huck feels the same way to Jim.

My reflection of this novel is very emotional and factual. They used the word ''nigga'' in many ways with different meaning. The author used this word to convince readers of what was it like during that time in which each of these people responded to the word whether it was negative or positive. I choose emotional because Huck had a rough life and when he met Tom, it changes him and he wanted that love and passion to Tom. Throughout the chapter, he comes across another family and when he had a good time with them, he never had a family-type feel to him and I wish he had a perfect family like myself. So this was my reflection of The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn.  

Emily Dickinson's Quotes

1. ''Forever is composed of nows.''

This quote explaining that because all events are done in the now, that means all the past events and all the future events are done in the present. We can see the past, present, and future as now when time is being discussed. Lastly, since the news is done in the immediate, the events are unlimited.

2. ''That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet.''

 

This quote explaining that everyone will die eventually and even if people knew this phase, it enables us to die. If life were to never end, then it wouldn't be so sweet as Emily had said. It is best to fulfill your dreams and have the greatest time of your life because you will never know what would happened tomorrow.

3. ''If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain.''

This quote explaining that she will not live in vain if she were to stop someone heart from breaking. She will not dwell on the past because her life will then having meaning.

4. ''If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can ever warm me, I know that is poetry.''

This quote explaining that if she feel physically as if the top of her head were taken off, then that is poetry. I think that the poem that she wrote probably had an experience on the reader since she made a reference that she would read a book that was written by anyone she admire.

5. ''This is my letter to the world

     That never wrote to me.''

This quote explaining the connection between Emily and nature. The word that describe this connection is entrust. Nature's message is entrusted into invisible hands. Entrust is defined by assign the responsibility  to do something so I assume that Emily wanted nature to respond.

6. ''Saying nothing sometimes says the most.''

This quote explaining that it is important to be good talkers. Sometimes, the most powerful thing a leader can say is actually nothing. For Emily, silence has a habit of revealing meaning.

7. ''I dwell in possibility...''

This quote explaining her interest in the power gained by a poet through their poetry. The metaphor is being used to show a sign that poetry is possibility. Not only that it is a sign that poetry is possibility, but it can be more beautiful.

8. ''Nature is a haunted house--but Art--is a house that tries to be haunted.''

This quote explaining that there is no way demeaning towards art. She was intensity saying that art imitates nature. But, the implication of the remark goes further.

9. ''Parting is all we know of Heaven,

  and all we need of Hell.''

This quote explaining that we part with those who die and hopefully-go to heaven, which is ironically, an eternal happiness for them. It shows a powerful paradox which is the parting of both heaven and hell. However, we who are left behind suffer the pain of their deaths.

10. ''I have been bent and broken, but- I hope-into a better shape.''

This quote explaining that she had been very depressed and underused for a long time, and she hopes that one day, that will change. Emily had to deal with events that change her personality and she doesn't want to ruin her for the rest of her life.

11. ''in this short life

     that only lasts ah hour

    how much-how little-is

    within our power.''

This quote explaining that Emily probably doesn't feel control of her life. An understatement is being used in this quote because she says that life only last ah hour. Lastly, her statement could one mean one thing: How much of our life are we in control of?

12. ''Whenever a thing is done for the first time, it releases a little demon.''

This quote explaining that people what tried these things for the first time had now had experience this method. And something when you make those decision, it ma haunt you. This is where it releases a little demon comes into play. It depend on our decision-making throughout your life.

13. ''To shut our eyes is to travel.''

This quote explaining that when you close your eyes, it can takes you inside yourself and for Emily, it shows a lot of emotions for her and she wants to envision what her life would be like. There is a chance that Emily's accuracy increases when she closes her eyes. It happened to man people after her so it would persuade Emily to recall those events in perspective.

14. '' open me carefully''

This quote explaining that she want to let her frustration out. She want her little demons to come out of her; she is feeling very open-minded. She seemed calm and wanted everything to go back to normal.

15. ''Till I loved I never liked enough.''

This quote explaining that love is life, and life is nothing without love. This is what Emily is dealing with because she fallen in love with a man and without him, she will suffer.

Frankenstein

This novel, Frankenstein is truly an amazing book. Victor's ambitious became a huge part throughout this novel and it involves not only his creation but also his family. The monster seemed out of touch for Victor because of the way Victor treated him and the monster is trying to fit in with the other humans so that he is not just scary, but also caring. The humans react to the monster to the way that people expected to because he is scary, but I seemed that they need to know so much about this creature rather than making the creature look bad. But at the end of the poem, I think that the monster is finally free because the monster doesn't have to deal with his problem with Victor any longer.

Macbeth Act 1 Reading Journal

Based on reading this poem, I would like to say that this was a start of becoming a good poem. On Act 1, Scene 1, it talked about the three witches about to meet Macbeth despite  thunder and lightning. The witches said that they will meet Macbeth ''when the battle's lost and won'' and when ''fair is foul and foul is fair. On Act 1, Scene 2, King Duncan confront a captain that was returning from battle. He was describing Macbeth's attack on the castle of Macdonwald, in which Macbeth was very successful on doing that. Ross and Angus enter with breaking news that The Thane of Cawdor has joined forces with Norway. Scene 3 talk about how Banquo and Macbeth repeating what the witches had told him and once he was named the Thane of Cawdor, he realized that this is actually real. Scene 4 is dealing with King Duncan  and he wanted to know if the former Thane of Cawdor has been executed. He also praised his two sons for thir loyalty and bravery. In the rest of the scene, Lady Macbeth read a letter from Macbeth that describes his meeting with the witches. This is where she started making all of the preparations for the king's visit and next murder. And on Scene 7, Lady Macbeth and his husband kill King Duncan despite him being drunk and they will blame the two bodyguards for his murder since they were drunk too.  This Act is only the beginning of what happened next, so Act 2 would be excited to read.

Macbeth Act 2 Reading Journal

Based on reading this poem, I would like to say as I read each scene in Act 2, I am started to see what is really going on. Act 2, Scene 1 is discussing Banquo and his issue with the witches' prophecy. As Macbeth enters the scene, Macbeth seem like he has little thought to the witches' prophecy. On Scene 2, Lady Macbeth seem worried that the bodyguards have awakened before Macbeth had plant the evidence on them. Macbeth seem shocked of what transpired and he feel guilty of his actions. In Scene 3, the Porter imagines that he is the porter at the door to Hell. The Porter was very strange in a way meanwhile Macduff ask Macbeth whether the king is awake yet. But then, he noticed that the king is dead. In the last scene, Ross and the old man discuss the unnatural events that have taken place recently and when Macduff enters, Ross asks whether the culprit has been discovered. The two sons seem very suspicion as Ross say that Macbeth will surely be named the next king. But Act 2 was like the fallout of the murder of King Duncan and a little details of what you need to know as we read the next Act in Macbeth.

Psalm 53

53 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

² God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
³ Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
⁴ Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.
⁵ There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.
⁶ Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

 

•  Line 1: The meaning of this line is that sinful people do not believe in God. It is a wicked thing to deny God, and a denial of God is often accompanied by a wicked lifestyle. It shows some characteristics of the sinful people.
• Line 2: The meaning of these lines is that God looks from heavens on humans to see if anyone is wise to be with God.
• Line 3: The meaning of this line is that they turned their back on God and they become filthy.
• Line 4: The meaning of this line is that the workers of iniquity doesn't understand what is happened right now. They mistreated these people as if they are worthless.
• Line 5: The meaning of this line is that they was terrified even though they claim that there is nothing to be worried about. God started annihilates those who attack us trustworthy people. The whole purpose is that God has rejected them.
• Line 6: The meaning of this line is that God will started bring back his people. He wanted everyone to be joyful.

King Lear Review

I've read King Lear for weeks and although I didn't learn anything new about the play, I was able to get a full understanding of it. I love the way Cordelia was very honest about King Lear, but also she loves his father very much. Also I like the loyalty of both Kent and Gloucester in Edgar's attempt to heal his father's soul through his scheme. The most important in this play was Lear grows in understanding and compassion even as he grows in grief and madness.

There was some characters in the play that made some bad decisions. There was Oswald receiving the devotion to Gonreil, Edmund was tardy, but instead he was attempt to save Cordelia and Lear's soul in a way that heroes supposed to deliver, and Cornwall's servant had the saving effort to involve in the blinding of Gloucester by wounding the master despite the fact that he has all of the respect all his life. I love reading plays and I hope that others can understand why this was an awesome play.

Man vs Evil

Many people in this village can say anything about me, but I'm always a honest person. I'm responsible for making any outcome come to an end. There was 4 Orders in which they supported themselves by begging because that what our roles was. That was our sacrifice that burns inside us. When people have an issue, they will turn to me to say my own opinion about their problem. The Pope and I have a mutual interest from one another. The Pope told me that I am an easy man in forgiveness, so I'm feel glad that I'm continue to do this.  It like God gave me a thumb up in appreciation.

There was one individual that I displease with. This person was from bad to worse in any situation. This is the person that should go straight to hell. His name is the Summoner. He serves other summonses to church courts and I thought that I trusted him to do his duty. I trusted him to make a huge decision with precise and dignity. I trusted him to be a humble person. I trusted him to be a thoughtful person. I trusted that he is a man. But what does he do? How does he react beased on this? I will tell you; he despise me. He wanted to do whatever he want to do and he seem good about it. I have enough, so I confronted the Summoner and he is very vivid about what I'm about to say. He say his side of the story by saying that everyrhing is going to be fine and I say that if that is the case, then why am I hearing about people having to do these requests by a summoner and if they refuses, a summoner will do something about it. There was a back and forth conversation between us and we ended the conversation in the worst way possible.

As weeks gone by, I'm sitting here very puzzled of what crazy things that the Summoner may do now. I heard that the Summoner is now pimping with these womens. These womens referred to as prostitutes. The Summoner can do these things and get away with it as a piece of pie. I am disguted. I am terrified. I am sick of seeing this boy doing these thing as if he is a boss. I am sick of seeing him being an abysmal human being. You know what? He is an embarrassment to this villiage and I hope something bad happened to him. I hope that he goes to hell.

Blog Post Assignment 3

The Middle Ages was a turbent and violent period yet it known for its key dates and events. The timelines and biographies of the most famous Middle Ages people includes great nobles, warriors, religious leaders and explorers of Europe and England during the Medieval period of the Middle Ages. During this time, women plays a key role in this society. They have to take care of the children, prepare for food, tending livestocks, etc. They also involved in vital cottage industries in which the women worked really hard on. And, they had to take care of their husband and help them picking up  the crops. Since there were Peasants, it seem as if they are these unsophisticated person that doesn't seem too happy about it. The Medieval society for the woman was probably horrendous for them because they don't seem to take a break. And last, their symbol was a distaff in which it is used for spinning flax and wool.

Introduction to Geoffrey Chaucer

Since the start of professional study of historical records in the nineteenth century, besides, it has become clear that Chaucer is one of the best-documented of early writers. Geoffrey Chaucer is a English poet of the Middle Ages who is an author of The Canterbury Tales (1837-1400). He also wrote a string of other surviving works in verse and prose. His importance was recognized soon after his death. He had a lovely wife named Philippa de Roet at that time. He also was a useful servant in his own right.  His collected works were first printed in 1539 and have remained available to readers ever since. For centuries, he has been one of the most influential authors ever to have written in English .

A Letter to Advice Communist

Dear Advice Communist,

My name is Grant and I have a major problem and I need your assist. A person named Jefferson was sentenced to death and people call him a hog. So, what I need to do is to convince him that he is no boy; he is a man. I have to finished this task before he croak. I have no idea of how to start this process so as a result, I have come to you for some advice. If you know any steps, will you please suggest me to tell Jefferson of how to be a man before time runs out?

Chapter 5 and 6 Assignment ''A Lesson Before Dying

Chapter 5

1. Grant's classroom was the church as discussed on page 34. This is the reason why the class encounter there.

2. Grant was supposed to teach this class for six months of that year, but he actually would allowed to teach five and a half months when the children were not needed in the field. Also on page 34, he would start doing that from late October to the middle of April.

3. Grant goes into a lot of detail regarding Jefferson. He would say that Jefferson will be killed because he is very irritate with many thing that stuck on his mind. So, he vents to his students to cause them unhappiness due to his emotions as well.

4. When Mr. Farrell arrived in the classroom, he bring the news about Mr. Pichot and he wanting to speak to Grant on that evening.

Quotes

''In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.'' ''The lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.'' Let not your heart be troubled, believe in God, believe also in me.''  (pg 33)

''Jesus wept.'' (pg 34)

Chapter 6

1. Grant has gone to Mr. Pichot's house so that he can meet with about Jefferson.

2. Grant sits and waits in Mr. Pichot's kitchen for about 2 and a half hours.

3. Edna makes Grant to shake hands even though she doesn't want to get close to him. She probably was afraid due to the color of his skin and she tries to be polite from a distance.

4. Grant was acting like he was very clever towards the white man, which resulted to Grant insulted him. Grant reveals that he is not as dull as the white saw him.

Quote

''There ain't a thing you can put in that skull that ain't there already.'' (pg 50)

'' To show too much intelligence would have been an insult to them. To show a lack of intelligence would have been a greater insult to me. I decided to wait and see how the conversation would go.'' (pg 47)

Quotation Assignment

Chapter 3

'' I didn't raise no hog, and I don't want no hog to go set in that chair. I want a man to go set in that chair.''- page 20


2. This quotation characterize Jefferson in many ways. Ever since the judge sentenced Jefferson to death, Jefferson now is a hog based on what many believe he had did during the time of the robbery. Even if Jefferson was innocent, nobody is against Jefferson during the trial and it hurt Jefferson because he know that he had to be sentenced to death. I would also said that it characterize Miss Emma because she knows that Jefferson is not a hog. He knows that Jefferson is innocent. And she would do what it takes to fix this.

3. This quotation indicate a conflict. The reason is Miss Emma doesn't want Jefferson to set in that chair because she knows that Jefferson is innocent. Also, Miss Emma knows that if Jefferson does in fact set in that chair, she said that at least that he will set on it as a man, not a hog.

Chapter 3-4 Discussion Question

Chapter 3

1. There was an interchange provided between Henry and Miss Emma that represents the uneasy relationship that remain between the races. Henry's insistence that Jefferson ''did it'' redirect the plot narrative because Henry believes that Jefferson is guilty and he knows that Jefferson was responsible for his actions during the crime scene.

2. Miss Emma keep pushing Grant to go, but she is not seeing Grant as this same person for a very long time.

3. Analyzation: When Grant went away from college, he vowed to never enter through the servant's entrance of Pichot ever again. He refreshed that in his memory and how he felt that when he was young. It like things have never changed.

4. She want somebody else to take her place even though she really want Mr. Henri, not the sheriff.

Chapter 4

1. It emphasizes and expands on the public defender's summation in Jefferson's trail which occurred in Ch1. It echo the public defenders summation in the trail. Just like the hogs being killed in the slaughterhouse, Jefferson compared to a hog earlier in the story, and it shows that he will be  killed like an animal.

2. He feel compelled to flee because of how he have to teach Jefferson how to die when Grant himself doesn't know what to start on this process. What keep him there was his light-skinned girlfriend Vivian. The narrator did in fact expresses the need to get away from the town where he lives until that plan had turned around once he had a girlfriend.
