White Literature Reviews Samples For Students

ABSTRACTThis paper explores the many general similarities between Alice Walker’s "The Welcome Table" and Nadine Gordimer’s "Country Lovers", and the ways in which racism is presented by both writers. Both stories condemn the hypocrisy and attack the injustices of racist societies. Both stories have a symbolic element which is examined and discussed and the fact that both stories are set in very different societies and, therefore, have very different contexts and settings is always at the heart of the paper’s argument. Each story is also discussed and explored separately in order to focus on its individual qualities. ...

The major theme that shows up in the story is that of biculturalism and the fact that Tayo feels as though he is caught between two societies’. While he has grown up on the reservation surrounded by Native American culture. He does not feel as though he truly belongs because of his white ancestry. This is compounded due to the violent and negative history between the white man and the Native American, whose way of life and land was destroyed by the white mans greed and sense of entitlement. In biculturalism a person is stuck between the dominant culture ...

William Faulner’s ‘As I Lay Dying’ is a literature piece depicting the social interaction in a family setting. The literature piece involves the use of many symbolic applications in the unreal world and other factors from human characters. Faulkner expands his imagination beyond the human character. However, Faulkner uses each and every symbolism in the novel in relation to human character. Furthermore, characterization in the novel is based on human character that can be compared or symbolized through another non-human character. This ability ensures the continuity of the plot as the characters are developed under different archetypes.
Faulkner creates ...

There are well documented differences between the wages earned by black people and white people and these have been witnessed in most spheres of employment. These differences are related to both the hours worked and also the wages earned per week. White men who lack college education are not doing well in the current economy but they are far much better than black men who are at the same level of education. Data indicates that white men with a high school diploma earned an average of $38,778 in 2010 as compared to black men who earned $26, 668. The ...

In all times women were paying much attention to their appearance regardless of their ethnicity. However, each ethnicity has its own image of a beautiful body determined by its cultural and social values. Nowadays, there are many studies on how women of different ethnicities perceive an ideal body and how they assess themselves in relation to this ideal image. In our modern society the latter is imposed also by the media which portrays skinny models as being perfect and ideal. The main issue investigated by most of psychologists in burgeoning literature devoted to this subject is the attitude of ...

Shakespeare’s Protests against Institutional Racism in Elizabethan England

Othello is not the only play in the Shakespearean canon that features racism, and it certainly is not the only play that challenges social mores. Whether it’s the feisty Beatrice, in Much Ado About Nothing, turning social convention on its head, in the sense that women were supposed to be prim and proper in Elizabethan England, when she wows Benedick with her powerful desire to save Hero, or whether it’s the Jew Shylock in The Merchant of Venice, endowed with many of the physical characteristics associated with the worst stereotypes associated with members of his religion but ...

Prior the American Civil War that marked the highlight of the gradually expanding rift between the Northern and Southern regions based on differing ideologies, abolitionism was a common theme in the country. The sympathetic Northerners sought to abolish the slavery system that had indefinitely supported white supremacy on American soil at the expense of the black race. Now, the calls for the liberation of slaves in the United States of America originated from two significant premises; the diverse economic practices and contradicting doctrines of black inferiority. The Northerners were industrialists and in need of cheap menial labor for their factories, ...

Children are most delicate and vulnerable to the legacies of racism and sexism, they will often find their life opportunities limited or destroyed if the racist oppression internalized within families and communities continues unabated. Black women are mostly represented as unattractive, uneducated, and their inherent value as human beings faces constant attacks from a Eurocentric ideal of beauty that doubly oppresses black men and women. In most cases, the children are not protected from the realities of their environment, and their parents are, in fact, a direct cause of the traumas they experience. The young women are exposed to physical, emotional ...

Marcus Garvey
First of all, Marcus Garvey convinced his followers the primary need of black people was the formation of their own nation. He called it “Back to Africa” movement. Garvey encouraged the descendants of black slaves to return to their historic motherland (Sewell, “The architect of a world of free minds”). The starting point of Garvey`s reflections was the conviction in the futility of attempts to integrate black people into white society. The black diaspora did not have any possibility to fully participate in the social and political life of the West. Such a situation was generated ...

Healing events are the core of God’s activity in the world and an integral part of His interaction with people throughout the history. The Bible gives us many splendid examples of people recovering and even raising from the dead, like healing the woman who touched Christ’s clothes and recovered from blood flowering (Mark 5:25-29 New King James version) and Lazarus revival. (John 11:43-44 New King James Version) God not only cured illnesses but souls too. The well- known example of it described in the Gospel according to John, when Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in ...

“Hills Like White Elephants” is one of Ernest Hemingway’s most famous short stories, and for good reason. It is a story that contains timeless themes and deals with a timeless issue: the interaction between men and women.

Hemingway’s use of a variety of literary elements to create dramatic tension and to really underscore the thematic idea of the problems of talking versus communication, particularly between individuals of different genders.

“One Hundred Years of Solitude” (Cien Añosde Soledad) is a magical realist novel created by Gabriel García Márquez in 1967. This novel is referred to as the Don Quixote of Latin America because of its overwhelming popularity (Jay Corwin, 4).

The tragic and mystique ending pushes to the idea that multiple aspects of life that are described in the novel are heavily criticized by García Márquez (Jay Corwin, 4). And one of these ...

The novel At Fault, published in 1890, brought its author, Kate Chopin, a great deal of attention and appreciation from critics, especially for the impressive realism with which she built her characters.

When we talk about the artists from the 19th century, readers have prejudices about them as the authors of sentimental novels whose protagonists are mostly young girls who seek justice for themselves. This is not the case with Emily Dickinson. In order to understand her poems, readers need to have an insight in the social circumstances of the time when he lived. In these days, you were not supposed to have a public opinion, your job as a female, was limited to the running of the household and that was all. Even though Emily Dickinson was a mild and condescending person, her ...

The short story Country’s Lovers by Nadine Gordimer and the poem What It’s Like to Be a Black Girl by Patricia Smith are masterpieces in terms of their content and the themes that both pieces present to the readers.

James Langston Hughes’ “I, Too, Sing America” and David Hernandez’s “Pigeons” are both poems which explore racism. The two poems are very different from one another in pace, tone and in use of imagery. However, there are also a few similarities between them. Overall, Hernandez’ poem leaves a stronger image in the reader’s mind, and therefore it is arguable that it does its job in conveying its theme more effectively.
Hughes wrote “I, Too, Sing America,” in 1932. At this point in history, African-American individuals were not accepted in American society. They were discriminated against, segregated from white ...

The primary characters of Shakespeare’s plays typically have an element of tragedy to them: some unfortunate outcome for them that occurs either despite their circumstances or because of them.

There was a slightly divisive view of how many authors in the 19th century viewed the West, and how it pertained to the American Dream. Mark Twain looks at the West with an innocent eye; he saw it as a vast frontier that was filled with boredom, but punctuated with moments of adventure; that is clear from his retellings as a boy of the steamboatmen who came through in a flash through his hometown. –“When a circus came and went, it left us all burning to become clowns; the first negro minstrel show that came to our section left us all suffering to try ...

To this end, black people are not viewed as distinct individuals but as descendants of formerly enslaved ancestors. As a result, they are haunted by a heritage of slavery. Gabor S. Boritt and Scott Hancock portray the identity conflict within the self ...

The tale of America’s tumultuous racial history is fraught with conflict, fear and violence, as people of color throughout America’s history have had to fight tooth and nail for what freedoms and rights they currently enjoy.

Natural selection is a premise advanced by Charles Darwin to explain the evolution of the human race. Darwin argued that evolution was based on a survival for the fittest strategy, and so some features of early humans evolved to ensure they dominated their ecosystems. This premise is applicable in analyzing the evolution of racism among the American society. Howard Zinn recognizes that whereas early African-Americans in the United States were treated as servants and not slaves, they were never regarded as equals to the Americans. Borrowing from Darwin’s arguments, it is evident that the natives considered the introduction of another ...
