Instead focuses more on the social interaction of those dealing with the death. In her essay she writes “death is still a fearful, frightening happening, and the fear of death is a universal fear even if we think we have mastered it on many levels.” I feel this statement is flawed, in many ways. It puts us all on the same playing field. But that is unrealistic. None of us deal with things the same.
The capacity for society to revert back into accepting atrocities is why Wiesel’s formulates his speech to caution the audience. When Wiesel states that, “these failures have cast a dark shadow over humanity” (Wiesel 533), he is implying that these moments of darkness in history have been justified in people’s minds. Humanity’s illusion is that this was just brief periods in the past that will not happen again. That is the confusion that Wiesel hopes to discard through his speech by informing the audience through multiple examples of indifference. He induces a state of depression to make the audience receptive to his persuasion through pathos.
Antisocial behavior and aggression has been shown to link back to the rejection of those around you as a young child. It is believed that peer rejection at a young age is the cause of later stress while also affecting the development in that child. “It is hypothesized that, as a provocation stimulus, peer social rejection will lead children to respond with increased reactive and proactive aggressive behavior,” (Dodge & Coie, 2987). This quote narrows the article down to one main subject; that subject being the aggression caused in a child caused by rejection from peers or others around them. Not only does social rejection cause stress and aggression in a young child, it results in stress among the family due to the child’s behavioral changes.
This also shows that it can come suddenly and that the poor will have to prepare for these conditions in order for them to stay alive. The alliteration ’beneath the blast’ shows the harshness of the wind and how dangerous it can be for those unprepared and unfortunate people. It also creates the image of a storm which can be a metaphorical image to convey the social and political change. Burns understands the struggles of being poor and vulnerable, especially at difficult times due to debt problems and the death of his father and brother, which is why he can empathise with the mouse’s tragic

Syed Hamza Amir 1 Professor Meredith Allison English 1303 23 September 2010 The Future of the Internet As our web experience continues to evolve at an exponential rate, it has provided us with more technology to publish our own content that had once been available only to the few. This rapid expansion in the ability of humans to publish new content has created a new flurry of debate over whether this is enhancing or destroying our culture. Two authors, Andrew Keen and Clay Shirky, tackle this issue with two very different conclusions. Keen provides valid points but falls short and seems like a hypocrite in his condemnation of web 2.0. On the other hand, Shirky gives a complete and thorough view in favor of our ability to publish
“Fear is a chain reaction in the brain that starts with a stressful stimulus and ends with the release of chemicals that cause a racing heart, fast breathing and energized muscles, among other things, also known as the fight-or-flight response.” (Layton) Fear is something that we all deal with in some way. Fear can keep us from reaching our goals; it can keep us from realizing our dreams. In the context of this paper, fear “implies anxiety and usually loss of courage” (Fear). In Ray Bradbury’s Something Wicked This Way Comes, the reader finds that overcoming the beliefs that cause fear is the key to success. The main characters in this novel are Charles Halloway, his son Will, and Will’s friend, Jim Nightshade.
