His humor in “Journey” is outstanding as well as his compassion in “April” His writing style as well as him being a funny wordsmith may have been the root to his success in attracting such a wide range of audience that admire his works. His sense of humor how he described April, the spider “It slayed me that she had eight eyes, and that none of them seemed to do her any good. They were more like decoration, really, a splay of beads crowded above her chelicerae (April 4-5). Another comical way he
When Zaroff smiled, he bore red lips and "pointed" teeth that often included a long, perfumed cigarette. The audience can assume that Zaroff and Rainsford were about the same size, since Zaroff provided him with clothing ("my clothes" Zaroff says) that proved to be a satisfactory fit. Being the antagonist, General Zaroff represents exquisite, intelligent, and savage traits throughout the entire development of the story. Dreading for many difficult challenges in his hunts, Zaroff will never stop until he meets his match. Zaroff, intelligent, but likewise generous, uses his attractive personality to lure ship-wreakers into playing a game of survival.
There is also “The Sarge”, Mike Marsh, who helps Dave out get his life together as well as Dan did. This autobiography shows a missing part of Dave’s life. He speaks about what he went through in his youth and what he had to do to build up his self esteem and overcome all that he was put through by his mother and others who saw him as nothing.

First, one of the challenges Dave Pelzer faced in his youth was finally being taken out of his mother’s house and put into foster care.
It is the innate search for our own identity that drives artists such as Chuck Close and Vincent Van Gogh to explore their inner psyche through self expression and portraiture. The search for identity begins in how one’s childhood progressed, and Chuck Close had a very different childhood from Vincent Van Gogh. An only child, Close was always odd and with little friends due to his family’s constant relocation in his early years. His parents Leslie and Mildred, a plumber and a piano teacher, cherished their only son and aided him in his artistic endeavours to the best of their ability. When Close was about eight years old his father found a local woman of dubious work to give him art lessons in which his mentor would often provide nude models for him to study from.
On Thursday October 11, 2012 guest speaker Larry Hirsch presented a lecture of his parent’s survivor story as holocaust survivors. Many would have believed that Larry would have spoken of sadness and death surrounding his parent. Instead, he spoke of how their lives came to be, beginning with his mother because she had deceased at a young age. Larry then spoke in detail of his father and all of the accomplishments he had made with his wife. Their story was very touching and could make a believer out of anyone that no matter what struggle you face in life you can still succeed.

Instructor Helen Chandler English 1301-2023 February 9, 2012 “The last Lecture’s backgroung” The last lecture was for most of the students and readers a seemingly average book written by a writer who was going through a difficult health problem. That writer, Randy Pausch just wanted to let his audience know about his childhood dreams and how he achieved most of them. He shared with readers and listeners in one of his lectures how achieving their dreams is the best way to “live their life well.” However, going deep through the lecture, it is not difficult as an analytic reader, or listener in the case of being part of the speech, to figure out the rhetorical devices used in narration. Regardless, importance of this last lecture, these rhetorical devices were used in a very clever way to provide: clearness, persuasion, and sentimentalism. One impressive tool used was clarity, the structured and choreographed explanation between his personal and professional life, left nothing for the reader to ask for, every paragraph was clear and meaningful; by giving examples and using props to make him even more understandable, and reliable for his audience, Pausch led his readers and listeners right what he wanted.

Bud Light: Real Men of Genius “Today we salute you Mr. Unathletic sports talk radio guy.” (www.budlight.com) That is just one of the many Real Men of Genius commercials produced by Anheuser-Busch. Many people think they are dumb and pointless, while others get a hilarious laugh at the stereotypes and “paying mock tribute to the unsung heroes” (www.usatoday.com) of the particular ad, whatever it may be. Over the course of this essay, the stereotypes aimed at the male gender and the points of the ads will be discussed as well in hopes of shedding some light on a great ad that a lot of people don’t understand. The stereotypes in the Bud Light ads are aimed towards the male gender and the “unsung heroes” of America. The “unsung heroes” are the inventors or facilitators of the great things that all men have come to love in America.
