Panic, anxiety, and most importantly, fear, are all components that form the adventurous tale, The Most Dangerous Game. Rainsford, the protagonist of the story, is widely recognized as an experienced hunter who ventures off in a ship to travel to Rio in order to hunt jaguars. However, the story turns when Rainsford falls off his ship, encounters a hunter who hunts men, and becomes the prey himself. Although Connell sets up an intense plot by using irony, characterization, word choice, and other literary devices, imagery is one of the main aspects that releases an uneasy feeling within the audience. Imagery is a common literary device that authors use to engage a reader into the story, by painting the scene in the audience’s mind.

In If I Die in a Combat Zone, Box Me Up and Ship Me Home, Tim O’Brien’s intent is to showcase that the war in Vietnam was wrong and unjust because of the horror stories of the soldier’s experience, the atrocities committed by the Americans troops, and finally how O’Brien’s view of the American military drastically changed from how he idolized the military after WWII and throughout the Korean war, to drastically disapproving with the war effort. The soldiers who fought in Vietnam experienced a multitude of awful things, and O’Brien uses these stories to to back up the fact that the Vietnam war was horribly wrong. One example is the violent and deadly battles the soldiers endured. There were many battles throughout the book, but one battle in

Many people today are constantly exposed to advertisements and social media. Whether that be on television at the gym, scrolling through social media on lunch break, or in the car on the way to work, modern society has embedded constant visual rhetoric into their lives. Being exposed to such a thing has almost dulled modern day’s senses to all the elements of visual rhetoric in an ad or a magazine. Among the galleries of the online baseball book This Great Game there hides an image of the hall of famer Jackie Robinson after he had been hit in the head by a fastball. The illustrator used careful tactics of photoshop, diction, and framing to push forth the message that Jackie Robinson shone as a beacon of light for the civil rights movement and

Showing real images that featured the outcomes of war would have caused Americans to become disheartened thus decreasing American morale. To insure victory, the government enforced the use of censorship throughout the nation. In one propaganda poster, the caption reads “Let’s Censor Our Conversation About the War” (“Censored”). The propaganda poster revealed the extent of which the government kept a eye and ear to all American citizens as an attempt to preserve American loyalty. The government was able to use its political power to its full extent by withholding valuable pieces of information, which revealed the extent of its influence.

Many graphic designers were stricken with guilt after the war and one of the most memorable is the one who created the “I want YOU” poster, namely James Montgomery Flagg, who stated: ’A number of us who were too old or too scared to fight prostituted our talents by making posters inciting a large mob of young men who had never done anything to us to hop over and get shot at. . . We sold the war to youth.’ However at the time it had seemed perfectly logically justified for these men to sell the war to the youth and use their talents to enlist men in a war which was being fought for the people in power. This shows the extent and poisonous seeping of the brainwashing into the public of the people to the extent that even those who were performing the brainwashing, were themselves

What Will America Be Remembered For? – Sean Smith INTRO When I was younger, the first few years of history class tended to gloss over most of history, leaving only a paragraph or two for each of the big players: Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, etc. What did I expect, we can’t teach kids all of history, we need to shrink every period down to small digestible bites. Here’s the question though: What will America’s paragraph read like?

The statement by Sanger Rainsford “The world is made up of two classes the hunters and the huntees” means that there are people hunting and there are people who are being hunted. How I feel about the statement is that it is true that is what makes up this world but it is wrong to hunt for fun but right for survival. If you are hunting to find food that is okay but if it’s just to kill something then that is not right.
