I also love how the author used a butterfly example to show the metamorphosis of these two characters. E.D. Struggling with her identity as an Applewhite finding who she is going through an inside metamorphosis. Jake finding his joy and passion going from a delinquent to a good theater kid. He got rid of his spiky collar to his red points now with a brown scruff cut.
This ambiguous definition of metamorphosis would be much more clear if the use of spoken dialogue was combined with music, and not just alternating. Even though the alternation of spoken dialogue and music is very good to transmit a message, I do think it could be used together. In other words, there is a lack of arias and recitatives in El Laurel de Apolo. This lack of background sounds reinforcing the text makes the work piece vague and therefore it gives gaps to misinterpretations. As an example, is the painting shown by Mary Quinn of Apollo and Daphne.
He turned into a hare and Cerridwen became a greyhound and she gave chase. Then he became a fish and jumped into the river and she became an otter and still gave chase. Finally he turned into a single grain of corn and she turned into a hen and ate him. After eating him she found out she was pregnant and nine months later she gave birth to Taliesan, who became a legendary bard and poet. What I learn from this myth is to never give up.

Cortázar 's short story, Axolotl, is about a man, that after frequent visits to the zoo, he becomes obsessed with Axolotls, observes them, and becomes one of them. This story explores the idea of mental metamorphosis, as the character does not literally transform into an Axolotl. The protagonist makes observations that reflect the way he feels in his life, outside of the zoo.
There are hundreds of works of literature out in the world, many of them are great, and some are not as great. What makes them great is the truth behind them, the true feelings, and what it truly meant to the author. Many great works of literature are influenced by several different things, in the case of “The Metamorphosis”, it was influenced by the life of Franz Kafka, the author, and his real- life experiences. The Freudian concept help explain why “The Metamorphosis” contains symbols and clues that can be used to compare certain relationships throughout Kafka’s life, one being with his father, and the other with woman who entered his life. Franz Kafka was a German man who worked as a lawyer who worked at the workmen’s Accident Insurance
The boy’s personality changed after seeing what the horse was experiencing. Similarly, Antonio starts off as a naive young boy, but ends up maturing. For example, when the author says “The day dawned, and already the time of youth was fleeing the house which the three giants of my dreams had built…” (Anaya, 27), the author is referring to Antonio growing up. Towards the end of the novel, Antonio learns to be open-minded and accept people as they are.

Critics of Religion Midterm 2. Although Friedrich Nietzsche’s ideas and work have long been associated with atheism and even the antisemitism that would eventually lead to the Holocaust, I think a slightly more fitting description of his point of view in The Genealogy of Morals might be “anticlerical”. While I believe there are good arguments that can be made for both atheism and anticlericalism, Nietzsche seems to focus most of his energy on critiquing religious clergy such as priests as well as organized religion and its impact on morality, rather than critiquing belief in God. The first essay includes an etymology of the words “good” and “bad” and how they underwent a transvaluation at some point due to religious clergy, which ultimately lead to a morality system that he argues is not natural or innate within us.
An example of change is when Raphael said “We stuck together we stayed in the dark.” I understand from this that rat has changed into a boy with friends and who is cared for. This reveals to me that Rats change was good for him and he has found some kind of happiness. Rats change helped me understand the importance of friends and family.
However, people have failed to find the ultimate solution in a constant cycle. On the other hand, some people find life meaningless.
