Moore, Olin H. "The Romanticism of Guy de Maupassant." Publications of the Modern Language Association of America (1918): 96-134.

In Moore's article, Guy de Maupassant in particular is examined as an example of a prominent naturalistic author, whose reactions to Romanticism included a disdain for fantastic plots, making of their works "merely a series of scenes" (p. 96). Moore calls de Maupassant "the purest representative" of this naturalism. The author is shown to depict opposites and have thematic repetition in his stories; the falseness of the necklace in the story in question is contrasted with another story, les Bijoux, in which the jewels at the center of the story turn out to be genuine.

My totem animal is the Wisaka that is affiliated to the Kickapoo people. The animal is given other variations in other tribes such as Anishinabe among the Nanabojo and Wabanaki among the Glooscap. The animal is considered a hero among the Algonquian tribes and he is a trickster character who has humorous adventures. He is often portrayed as a very good friend of humans. He is also not destructive or dangerous. I have chosen him to represent me because I feel his characteristics are rather funny. He is also regarded as a savior. He may be a trickster but he is a friend of human ...

The eland and the stuffed goose are both preyed animals that will serve as a meal. The first emphasizes the aspect of victim, with the tiger biting down on the heavy animal, satisfying its hunger. Meanwhile, the duck is forcefully fed until it is about to burst, like humans that cannot help being naturally sexual. The instinctual side of man is on display with both of these images, and so is a display of power and aggressiveness.
Female sexuality is described as being repressed, yet waiting to burst intensely. The main image relating to sexuality in the poem is that ...

Man is classified as an animal together with thousands of other species in the animal kingdom. However, he has a superior position in the animal kingdom due to his high reasoning and logical powers including the capability to manipulate and even make meals out of other animals. Indeed, man and human beings depend on each other for among others food as both are part of the food chain of each other. However, man is the biggest beneficiary given that he obtains many products such as meat, fur, milk, skins, and other products from animals. This shows that man has ...

While we were able to heal most of injuries, there were some that we were not able to get supplies for. As a result, he was never able to return to his previous form. Several days earlier, ...

Discussion on Hispanic Poetry

It was a great delight to read the book “Platero and I” by Juan Ramón Jiménez as it appeared to be light, easy and gentle. I do not remember coming across a story in which the author puts so much effort into describing an animal that is not only his friend but also a soul mate. I enjoyed reading those paragraphs which are dedicated to the description of the donkey. Jiménez has chosen such tender and warm words to describe Platero that every reader will immediately fall in love with this soft and hairy donkey “made ...

When I saw Janet first, she seemed like any other woman in her mid-twenties. She was comfortable to talk to, only, she seemed a little quiet and pale. She worked part-time at a local grocery store. It is her story that makes her different from others. She was sexually abused by her step-dad when she was ten. I was part of the youth support service team appointed to help her out and get her life back on her track. After a couple of meetings with her, we were able to get her to communicate, and gradually her story unfolded. ...

Education Reform

Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Inequality is an inevitable truth of our society. We see inequality everywhere, whether it’s between rich or poor, powerful or suppressed, strong or weak. What bothers Rousseau is that how and why such inequalities evolved in our society. The very first question that strikes of ‘Jean Jacques Rousseau’ is his question about inequality in two terms those are natural and political. He asks in the very first part of his work of ‘dedication’ that, he states that how equality is natural, and inequality is man-made, something that is introduced by men. Further talking about equality, he ...

William Eggleston, born in 1939 in in Memphis, Tennessee, first rose to fame in 1976 with his inaugural photographic exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art. Eggleston is widely credited with raising color photography to an art form. His first forays into photography wee in black-and-white, but in 1965 he began to experiment with color photography.
Critics at his first exhibition were shocked by his apparent disregard for the traditions of photography, and were particularly critical of the way in which he used dye-transfer methods, commonly associated at the time with advertising, to enhance the tonal potential of the ...

My heart was all smiles; the radiance on my face spoke loudly with delight. Jane had just outshone her peers in the summer choral contest, and I was sitting on top of the world. I had counseled my daughter enough, spent a fortune in time and dime for her rehearsals and here we both were at the Great-Lake zoo pavilion gazing at the beauty of mother-nature with some of her children. The pink, the yellow, the purple, the red and the white petals took their fair share of display at the contest stage of beauty. The petals ears gave ...

There are many reasons that artists choose to create art, but one of the many reasons that they choose to do so is to encourage the persistence of cultural or personal memories. While not all artists paint, sculpt, or recreate memories from their pasts, many artists do use elements of memory and memories from their past to create works of art that memorialize and speak to the past. This may be a personal history, or it could be a cultural or global history-- many of the works of art created after the first World War, for instance, are concerned with the ...

There are numerous benefits that can be accrued from keeping pets at home. These benefits range from psychological to health benefits. Research has shown that having pets around one’s home lowers a person’s blood pressure and also reduces anxiety (Sussman, 63). Studies have shown that children who grow up with pets are less likely to develop allergies as has been the belief of many. Pets serve as great companions especially to children and the aged. They create a kind of a social connection that enables children and the aged to fully express themselves. It is a challenge though to decide which ...

(Retelling the original story ‘My old Home’ by Lu Xun using Jun-tu’s perspective)
This year the winter is back again with a whole new version of snowstorm made from the snow and memories of the good old days. The New Year eve is approaching and I am still worried to get a grasp of some steady money resource for ensuring a full meal for my family of seven, including myself. Suddenly, my fifth, Shui-sheng came running to me and asked if he was going out with me.
“You and I will be going to visit my master Hsun’ ...

Evolution has been defined by many scientists, but the most notable one was Charles Darwin who formulated the famous evolutionary theory, and therefore referred to as the father of evolution. However, it is worth noting that even before Darwin, there were other theorists and scientists who had dwelt on the idea and whose thoughts could be integrated with those of Darwin to better understand the evolution. Some of these are discussed below.

Robert Hooke (1635-1703) started on the scientific note. He came up with a microscope with which he could observe some of the smallest creatures, and was the first ...

Philosophy

Does a life of deep observation and thinking alone necessarily bring happiness to mankind? In this case, according to Aristotle the sole function of reasoning determines ultimate happiness. Is that universally applicable to every aspect of human life? Can all 6 billion people remain happy if they chose to reason out their actions or actions of others? Yes, a contemplative approach will to a great extent result in a life where people do not live in war with their conscience especially in relation to the question of whether every action they perform on a human level is right or wrong. I disagree with the ...

Apart from having basic content on a travel website, there is additional information that can attract consumers. Most websites will use information about travel schedules, offer travel strategies guides and other information related to traveling. However, web 2.0 and the social networking sites make it possible to engage consumers at a more personal level. Most outdoor travel websites do not know the kind of information to share with the public that is both interesting and informative. This paper will discuss, in brief, three types of content that can increase the number of visitors.

Guy de Maupassant

Having live a short life (1850-1893), Guy de Maupassant’s has been unsurprisingly remembered for its economy of his writing. It is clear that he is praised for the structure and form in his stories as opposed to his shortened career. Moore in his articles examines him as an example of naturalistic author, whose reactions to Romanticism included a disdain for fantastic plots, making of their works “merely a series of scenes” (Moore 96). In Shire's work, she also discusses de Maupassant's relationship to naturalism, particularly in the characters' relationships to animals (p 48). The most remarkable thing in his writing is their ...

The Road by Cormac McCarthy is a unique and memorable novel. The author introduces, and develops, the tender relationship between a father and son, against the backdrop of a post-apocalyptic disaster. The violence and grizzly concepts make this novel not a good choice for the literarily sensitive, the love-story between the Man and the Boy is a gem not to be missed. As the title implies, McCarthy’s style is simple and consistent, providing a contrast to the complex subject matter of the novel.
The point of view selected by McCarthy for The Road is third person omniscient. However, there are some major differences ...
