The Eyre Affair is a novel by Jasper Fforde which was published in 2001. This is a novel about our main protagonist Thursday Next a “literary detective without equal, fear or boyfriend.” (fourth cover, Fforde). The story follows Thursday as she pursues a criminal mastermind Acheron Hades to prevent his evil deeds from being carried out. While The Eyre Affair had interesting details and a setting fit for the urban fantasy genre, the lack of depth in the characterization and the scarcity of logical events made the book a less enjoyable read.
The Evil Plot For the Wooden Leg I recently read the story “Good Country People” by Flannery O'Connor. This story is described as a southern gothic for its tone and very creepy ending. This story has a very twisted plot along with its very twisted ending. Flannery O'Connor does a good job setting up the characters in this story. At the end she twists them from who we thought they were.
What is the relationship between the self and religious influence? Flannery O’Connor explores the tensions between fulfilling the self’s needs in the face of religion. After a great deal of religious influence, the self is likely to rebel (even to the extent of committing horrible misdeeds). At the point in the novel depicted in the above passage, young Tarwater is in conversation with a supposedly evil voice that comes to him after his zealous great uncle’s death.
The previous scene ended in a medium shot camera angle; however, this switches to a close-up of Vivian, creating an eye-contact level between the character and audience (Nichols 1:06:05-1:06:10). This brings the audience physically closer to Vivian, allowing the ability to analyze the complex facial expressions and subtle nuances she obtains. Her facial expressions are filled with looks of regret, with her inability to look directly into the camera as she was previously able to. She continuously pulls at her fingers, demonstrating her anxiety and uncomfortableness with this realization. This proximity creates a sense of intimacy, intensifying the scene's emotional impact and creating an undeniable tension that Vivian can no longer act the way she has in the past; her wit and complexity can no longer help her, but simplicity will.

Religion is such a prominent figure in culture and society. Brideshead Revisited not only focused on the idea of religion, but also included how religion influences family life. Theologically, this novel made me realize the whole idea of religion and the say that children should have in religion. Prior to reading this novel, I never thought about children's rights to choose what religion they want to follow. In Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited, Catholicism is the focal point and the family dynamic is influenced by religion.
Deception can prove to be a powerful tool—both in the real world and in literature. While it is typically viewed as malicious, some forms of deception can prove to be beneficial in the long run. This kind of deceit is very prevalent in Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre. Mr. Rochester, specifically, spends a large portion of the story deceiving many characters, but most of his lies are directed towards Jane. At first, the façade he puts on seems questionable, but his motives behind his actions show that he had good intentions.
She acknowledges her own position which “exposes the follies and sins of her listeners” (12-13), and gives them a slight idea of the criticism that is to come by comparing herself to an arbitrary “banquet speaker” . She then shares some humour by saying that she is not the best candidate for “the delicate art of giving an audience hell” but perhaps public figures Billy Grahams and Bishop Sherry would succeed at it. Her light hearted yet disparaging approach makes the audience more likely to accept her claims, or at least hear her
Liability Autonomous vehicles can raise a lot of important ethical questions. According to google (“Ethics”, z.d.), one of them is liability. Who can be held responsible if an autonomous vehicle crashes? Is it the driver? Google?
Thornfield was a completely different world for Jane. It was a major change physically and socially, as a governess she had more opportunities and duties to fulfill. Jane was not intimidated by what was expected of her, yet she was excited to see what the future at Thornfield had in store for her. The power of love was unavoidable for Jane, “The claims of her former love prove stronger than her sense of duty to that honorable but emotionally shallow Rivers” (Moss 3).
In a society clinging to the cushion of political correctness, to be faced with a novel so offensive, so brash, so seemingly racist in the classroom was initially jarring. At first, I was opposed to the concept of having to read the word “nigger” and discuss it as if it was just any antiquated term; it seemed impossible. However, through my reading of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, I began to understand the value of my discomfort. A tenant of Jesuit education, personal growth is necessary for one to grow into an intellectual, whole human being. For one to grow, they must step outside their comfort zone and become uncomfortable.
Virginia Woolf: Shakespeare’s Sister In the essay “Shakespeare’s sister” Virginia Woolf asks and explores the basic question of “Why women did not write poetry in the Elizabethan age”. Woolf sheds light on the reality of women’s life during this time and illustrates the effects of social structures on the creative spirit of women. In the society they lived in, women were halted to explore and fulfill their talent the same way men were able to, due to the gender role conventions that prevailed during this era. Through a theoretical setting in which it is it is imagined that William Shakespeare had a sister (Judith), Virginia Woolf personifies women during the sixteenth century in order to reflect the hardships they had to overcome as aspiring writers.
