Translation for Chapter 9 While at sea, the storms were fierce and they could not sail at all, they were forced to just sail at and go wherever the vicious wind took them. During the storms, the beat would rock back and forth. During this violent rocking, one strong man named John Howland was thrown into the vast, deep ocean. This man did not die.

In Stephen Crane's short story The Open Boat, four men are stranded in the ocean fighting against nature to survive. This is a perfect example of the “man against nature” theme found in some

(Widdicombe par.9).” In the story “The Open Boat” each of the men in the dinghy is faced with the likelihood of his own death. While they row and wait to be rescued, the realization sets in that they are largely helpless in the face of nature's awesome power. The sea serves as a powerful reminder of the forces of nature: their lives could be lost at any moment. (Elliot par.4)”.

Gulliver’s Travels While reading the novel Gulliver’s Travels written by Jonathan Swift I noticed how Jonathan Swift uses a lot of satire or sarcasm over war and social classes. I found a couple of examples to show the use of satire or sarcasm Swift used in this essay. When Gulliver is traveling he finds many different kind of worlds but they all have some kind of issue towards war. Gullivers first journey was found on the land of Lilliputians. He was traveling on a ship when the ship hit a rock.
