It made them stupid. And what Kat said, he had thought about. Relevance: It is relevant to the story because it is talking about the war that they are currently in and relating the poor and simple people to them. Personal Response: I think that Katczinsky is more of a judge full person. That he makes it seem that the poor and simple people are less of a person.
These subtleties poke out from beneath Fadiman's overlying theme's of acceptance and cultural relativism which blanket the novel. These overlying themes may be noble and heart warming, but they are also unrealistic as can be witnessed throughout the novel. If there is one thing the reader can take away from, The Spirit Catches You and you fall down, it is that there is a big difference between saying, "Can't we all just get along?" and actually getting along. Fadiman is constantly making cultural comparisons between the Hmong and American cultures.
In the book the characters of Atticus, Jem, and Scout have you captivated. I did not enjoy the movie because it didn’t explain things as much as I would have liked it to. Also in the movie they did not show some of the scenes which occurred in the book and I believe that those scenes are important. Overall To Kill a Mockingbird is a good book that I really enjoyed
I was unhappy with my lack of confidence in the beginning, as I feel this distracted my concentration to perform to the best of my ability. Students with ‘Dyslexia’ can show difficulties in the following areas: Slow to read and write, poor short term memory, short concentration span, and difficulties in comprehending new sequences or information and difficulties in digesting or extracting the meaning of written text. I therefore had to ensure that John was in no way disadvantaged, when considering my methods to assist in his learning plan. John had had a very negative experience of previous classroom environments. Having been seen as lazy and not recognising the need for additional learning support.
Love and fidelity being a main theme in this text were conventionally neglected by society at the time of composition and the main focus being the Vietnam War. Lewis at first abided with such conventions and chose to be morally ambiguous. This is conveyed through the use of dialogue: “Lewis: Love is not so important these days.” As the plot advances however, it is evident that Lewis has become morally conscience in regards of love and fidelity as result of his constructive interactions with the mental patients. This is similarly reflected through dialogue as Lewis confesses: “It’s about important things – like love and fidelity”. In contrast, the context of reception forms a more perceptive atmosphere in which such themes are frequently dwelled on thus carrying relevance for the audience.
It just seems to unethical to me even though I can see how they would be useful. This novel made me think about many aspects of human life. Not only did I ponder how we as a people treat each other and people that are different than us, but I pondered our future and how realistic this novel’s plot can be. I am incredibly glad that I decided to read this book again because I missed out on so much the first time I read
While it is understandable that historians may be accustomed to the more lengthy pieces, it is irritating to the general public when the only truly informative books tend to put them to sleep within the first hundred pages. Truly, there is a possibility that this is such a book in spite of the fascinations encased in this subject matter; the book is dry, devoid of many pertinent facts by the average individual. The Godless Constitution is generally informative, contains much of the nation’s history and would be a good read for the average history buff. As a whole, this book is persuasive. Although not extremely appealing, it contains worthwhile information surrounding the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the nation’s history.
Another bad critique of Uglies is from Imaginary Books. Natalie Altish says, “ by the end of the book the concept of this dystopia wasn't as fresh anymore, and I ended up disliking Tally even more than I did in the beginning.” She shows she didn’t agree with the writing styles of Westerfeld. The various critiques show that many people can like the novel but also dislike how Westerfeld used a dystopian society to solve some of today’s current
While the book was good and it finished the series well, it wasn’t quite as fast paced as the first two books in the series. Mockingjay was a little slow at times and I found some parts to be dragging on. However, the book was good because it brought the amazing series to a close and left me with a sense of bittersweet resolution knowing how everything turned out. Throughout the book I really found myself getting attached to certain characters that I never thought I would, and by the end of it, I was very emotionally attached to many of the characters. So, even though Mockingjay was a little slow, and very different from the first two books in the series, I was satisfied with this book and I believe that it was an appropriate way to end a great
This thought before he died provides some insight on what type of character Andres is. There is a use of different types of character in this story but they are all flat some are dynamic and some are static. Even though it speaks a lot about Andres in the first half of the story he is still a flat character. The author dose not give the reader enough
