William Heyen writes the poem, "The Trains." to recall German concentration camp, Treblinka, and its role in the extermination of Jewish men, women, and children during World War II. Heyen gives a circuitous synopsis of the camp’s purpose by describing the authority of the Germans to collect the personal effects of Jewish prisoners prior to their execution and redistributed to Germany via the same trains that likely brought the prisoners to their demise. Heyen utilizes synecdoche in this poem by assigning Treblinka the role of the Jewish holocaust, giving blame to the camp and its commandant, yet the German High Command was the overall responsible party in their deaths. The poem highlights the objectification of the prisoner’s possessions and,

"The Luck of Roaring Camp" is a poignant short story written by Bret Harte, nineteenth-century master of the genre. In this realism tale set during the Californian gold rush era, the author successfully depicts how humanity can be concealed within a squalid and crude world. In it, a new-born child has a civilizing influence on men in more than one way: the tragedy of his birth brings the men together; he has the power to assemble them as a society, a culture. Secondly, the men become more polite, cordial towards one another. Thirdly, they have rites like all societies, giving a meaning to all lives in the camp.
Aldous Huxley develops the character of John in Brave New World through exile from the World State in order to elucidate the theme of not being able to escape the corruption that is society. After all the hardships John has been through, such as growing up on the Reservation with his mother, whose death also drove him to desperate actions such as starting a riot among some Deltas at the hospital, John was not able to properly cope with his “new life” in the World State. HIs positive view of what the “Other World” would be like was crushed when he realized how horrible and corrupt the people were there, all conditioned in uniformity to create stability. His disgust was only furthered by his exposure to the World State’s use of soma and sexual pleasure to keep people happily occupied. Everything that the people were conditioned and taught to do went against John’s beliefs, so he was understandably upset about it.
The poem Two Lorries was written by Seamus Heaney an Irish poet born in Northern Ireland, precisely in County Derry, on April 13, 1939. He was one of the most remarkable authors of that time, which dealt with topics of violence and social issues as well as nature and Ireland history, which demonstrates the variety of his work. Heaney was awarded with a Nobel Prize in the field of literature, by 1995 since his work was of lyrical beauty and ethical depth, which exalt everyday miracles and the living past. Seamus marked study on the role of sorrow in Ireland’s political atmosphere during the Troubles; a meditation on the personal effect of the Troubles on the citizen population, and should be read as the physical death of human life, the death of Ireland’s pastoral innocence, and the death of childhood to the abrupt nature of violence. By the time he was 74 he died on the 30 of August in Dublin.

The Other Pair is a very moving and motivational video, which made me understand that we have to change our thoughts, we should seek to help, offer or give to others without expecting anything back. The whole story of this short movie is basically revolving around two young boys who acted in such a selfless and generous way, that in their purity, they were teaching an important lesson to everybody who watched the movie. The entire movie was filmed in natural daylight, which I think makes everything look much more clear and natural looking rather than harsh studio lightning. The main characters of the movie were a poor young boy wearing worn out clothing & another kid who appeared to have a place from a rich family.
