Harper Godfrey Mrs. Garrett English 7 28 March 2023 Irena Sendler - Holocaust Heroine The Holocaust was a time period from 1939-1945, during World War II. It was a mass killing of Jewish People, Romas (Gypsies), Homosexuals, and the mentally and physically disabled people at the time. It was fueled by hate and the Nazi Party in Germany, run by Adolf Hitler.
“I know that I am a destroyer of the most precious thing, which is life”. This quote was from Patricia Krenwinkel. Patricia Krenwinkel had an important role in the Manson trials because she stabbed Abigail Folger countless of times and then later on she stabbed Rosemary LaBianca with a carving fork to death. She was found guilty of murder and they gave her the death sentenced, but the judge overruled it so she got life in prison. It has been 46 years since the murder of the Manson family.
The Holocaust was a traumatic and horrendous time for those who suffered and perished. Learning and talking about the Holocaust to this day, is very hard to believe that it ever happened because of the cruel acts that were done to innocent people. Throughout the Holocaust, many people didn’t agree of what Hitler was doing and they decided to take a stand and take action. The resistance groups made a huge difference in the Holocaust to make a change. These people risked their lives for others that were in desperate need of survival.
One subject they tend to talk about often is motherhood. Larsen continues her use of character foiling through the contrasting of Irene’s and Clare’s feelings about motherhood to emphasize how their contrasting situations influence their feelings. Clare does not enjoy being a mother. She believes that it is too much pressure, especially because she doesn’t want her daughter’s skin to reveal that she has a black parent. She says, “I nearly died of terror the whole nine months before Margery was born for fear she might be dark.

This episode was released in 1969 but made in 1968, a big year in American history.
Though religion is a very important theme in Rowlandson’s narrative, another theme that s reflected in it is the role of women, similar to Anne Bradstreet’s theme. The female role of maternity is rehashed all throughout the narrative as Rowlandson mediates over her kids. She is delineated as caring to her most youthful, Sarah, until her death where upon her misery as a mother permits her to act strangely for her society; “‘at any other time I could not bear to be in the room where any dead person was, but now the case is changed; I must and could lie down by my dead babe” (Rowlandson 275). She also reflects that, “I have thought since of the wonderful goodness of God to me in preserving me in the use of my reason and sense in that distressed time” (Rowlandson 276). Then she even quickly considered departure, probably death, from what could be saw God 's will brings home her trouble at the opportunity to the reader, however her overcoming such a trial is the thing that takes into consideration her proceeded status.
She is a mother based on the birth of her children, but she does not possess the nurturing qualities of a mother. However, she exemplifies a masculine role through ruling by fear and dominance and not
In Eudora Welty’s “One Writer’s Beginnings,” she shares the stories of her intellectual upbringings while connecting her earlier experiences with reading to her ability to learn and apply her knowledge as an adult. Welty’s believes that sensory education is important to children in developing the art of discovery as well as physical awareness (Welty 880). The connection of words and what they stand for plays an important role in Welty’s childhood and allows her to not only see a word, but to hear it as well (882). Eudora Welty’s literacy narrative, both person and cultural, brings purpose and life to her work. The incorporation of Welty’s parents and the environment in which she grows up in has significant importance.
One would think that the most passionate writers were constantly surrounded by massive piles of books. That's the only way to get them passionate about reading. However this Eudora Welty was not one of these writers. In One Writer’s Beginnings Eudora Welty through the use of frantic imagery, intimidating connotative diction, and apposition is able to effectively portray her purpose of writing, that being the influence literature has made on her life. Welty utilizes frantic imagery that effectively demonstrates the excitement she had as a child for reading.

The other important character in the book are: Chillingsworth- Hester’s real husband who is a doctor and whose real identity remains concealed to everyone; Dimmesdale- preacher who is portraid in the first parts of the novel as the “good preacher” who wanted to help Hester; Pear- Hester’s daughter, and often showed as the representation of her sin. These are the character you need to know for this discussion. What happens in the book when Chillingsworth finds out about Hester being pregnat is as you would imagine. He tries to be a gentleman with Hester and tries to help her in some ways. He is also not very mad at Hester, much more, trying to find out who the man guilty of the crime was as well.
As the daughter of the late and esteemed General Gabler, Hedda requires a husband with social standing, an elegant home, money, servants, and other amenities stamping her as a refined and respectable aristocrat. However, stirring within her is a desire to live with democratic derring-do—to think and act independently, to take risks. But she largely represses this desire, preferring to maintain the appearances of propriety and stability instead. Thus, she rejects the intriguing but irreputable Løvborg for the humdrum but reputable Tesman. She lets it be known that she will not tolerate even insignificant offenses to her standards of propriety, such as Juliana Tesman’s new bonnet.
