In the opening chapter of From Sleep Unbound the ending is very obviously foreshadowed compelling the reader to read on and understand the confused nature of the opening chapter, interestingly the beginning of the book is where the novel ends. The use of the past tense and infrequent and confused use of the present and future tense instils intrigue in the reader and again compels them to read on. The use of foreshadowing and the isolated use of past tense at the beginning of the novel mean that the final chapter of From Sleep Unbound resolves the story, and satisfies the readers’ need to understand. In contrast to From Sleep Unbound, The Waiting Years doesn’t employ the use of foreshadowing or the change of tense, but continues in the same fashion as the rest of the novel, and yet is still just as affecting to read. The fact that Enchi neglected to use foreshadowing serves the book well, as it creates an sense of the unknown, compelling the readers again to read, but in the case of The Waiting Years on to discover
Dillard says that the work replaces the memories and you are going to lose those memories (292). “You can’t put together a memoir without cannibalizing your own life for parts” (292). Taking parts of your memory out and putting new things on it is the same as cannibalizing, is a barbaric action, inhuman. Those parts that you took off may be very important to you, it can be your motive to get up every morning, it may not be important to the reader and that’s the reason writers use their creative skill to change their memories. Dillard starts the text by writing her own memoir.
1986 Some works of literature use the element of time in a distinct way. The chronological sequence of events may be altered, or time may be suspended or accelerated. Choose a novel, an epic, or a play of recognized literary merit and show how the author’s manipulation of time contributes to the effectiveness of the work as a whole. Do not merely summarize the plot. In Kim Edwards’ The Memory Keeper’s Daughter, the use of time is used adequately to demonstrate the harsh reality that one wrong decision can affect one’s life forever.
We must accept change or perish Change is inevitable and can occur at any time. We must accept change in order to move forward with life. This is shown in the prose piece Sky High by Hannah Robert and the Seven Ages cartoon. Not accepting change has its consequences. In the novel We All Fall Down written by Robert Cormier, some of the characters do not accept change and hence pay a consequence, as seen by the study of these texts.
Dark Traditions carried along through times As human behavior evolves, societies develop new patterns of conduct popularly accepted, however, the isolation of some societies and the strengthening of particular customs could make change and progress a hard thing to achieve. Such is the case of a chapter from the famous television series The Twilight Zone titled “The Beacon” written by Martin Pasko and Rebecca Parr, contrasted with Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery” from the book “Literature” A portable Anthology. Both stories give us a whole perspective of how a paradigm could be inserted into a society and conserve itself throughout many generations no matter what the moral consequences could be. Primarily, both “The Beacon” and “The Lottery”
Time could not support the demands that Gatsby was making. Gatsby catching the clock and his apology symbolizes the sensitivity of his plan and how necessarily his methods were. Fitzgerald uses symbols in The Great Gatsby to show different ideas and events throughout the book. Each symbol used throughout the novel has its own meaning to a specific idea or situation between characters. Symbols are very important in literature and they help add meaning to certain text or objects within the piece of writing.
He developed Lenina's gnawing problem to heal slowly but surely as she struggles to conform to the influences of her society, which she has known since "birth." Although these mannerisms and ideas that she has had rooted in her mind have had a significant influence on her development as a person, she was still able to convey who she was meant to be as an individual. This set a mood of rebellion and tones of satisfaction and success at the end of the novel. However, at the beginning of the novel, the set tone is dull and emotionless. To have the novel end with such a bright tone and mood enables the audience to see and feel how Huxley wanted to portray Lenina as a human being and not another robotic entity of a dreary utopian
Second, preserving the study within the historical context including the different editions and translations. Transnational and cosmopolitan paradigms can be good alternatives to national models of political community. Two active writers in this domain are Judith Butler and Suzan Basnett. While the first places translation at the centre of the debate about political philosophies of the nation, the latter suggests that comparative literature needs to rethink its relationship to translation studies. Yet, both of them invoke a model of translation that emphasizes the historical uses of translation in and between cultures, the importance of translation and the ethical and intellectual imperative to keep translation irreducible.

Influences on Montag’s Character It is hard to find the courage to stand up for what you believe in, even for a person with a tremendous amount of bravery. In the novel Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, Guy Montag was able to stand up and rebel against society with the help of quite a few characters. Throughout the novel, Ray Bradbury introduces characters to change Montag. Clarisse, the unidentified old woman, and Faber’s effects on Montag led him to his decision of preserving books rather than destroying them. Clarisse acted as a trigger in Montag’s character change by asking him thought-provoking questions and telling him about things he never noticed.
