The author of the book is Matthew Algeo. He wrote the book about the experiences the 33rd president and his wife, also some of his own experiences, encountered while they drove from Missouri to Washington DC.

With the demonstrated disdain, Hawthorne criticizes puritan society and prepares his audience for further
I was surprised that the people in the portraits along the corridors whispered and pointed as they passed, or that twice Percy led them through doorways hidden behind sliding panels and hanging tapestries. They climbed more staircases, yawning and dragging their feet, and I was just wondering how much farther they had to go when they came to a sudden halt.

In T.S. Eliot’s work “The LoveSong of J. Alfred Prufrock”, he uses diction to give an underlying meaning and tone to his poem in order to express the downfall of a man.

going anywhere else. The most disastrous readings are those that are wildly inventive and largely independent of the story’s factual content, those that go riffing off on a word out of context or a supposed image that is in truth not at all the image presented in the text. What I want to do, on the other hand, is consider the noumenal level of the story, its spiritual or essential level of being. If you don’t think such a thing is possible, neither does my spellchecker, but here we go. This is an exercise in feeling my way into the text.

Bartleby’s melodramatic ending was not as satisfactory as to what the viewers wanted. Though Bartleby went out the way his character is expected to, it did not fully satisfy the readers and instead left them wanting more. Bartleby, the Scrivener is not the most sentimental as it is hard for people to relate to Bartleby’s strange character. However, this last scene of Bartleby in prison induces a lingering melancholic feeling, wishing a happier ending for
He is not interested in the novel until his instructor mentions the critics of the novel and where it should end. Similar to these critics, the class debates whether Twain’s ending draws away from his critique of Racism and Graff found that even famous authors were capable of mistakes that could be found at his level. Now that the author has controversies to watch out for, he is able to draw a personal engagement form the books he reads as the arguments of critics guided his reading. Due to the controversy over Twain’s novel, the author then has a realization that reading and intellectual discussion could have an effect on his life, and he became less embarrassed about doing such

Of all gothic writers, Edgar Allan Poe is one of the most groundbreaking of them all. From The Cask of Amontillado, a story with integrated historical references of the time, to The Fall of the House of Usher, a deep and morbid story full of imagery.

Through these and many more, Poe has been using his writing style to immerse people into his stories and poems alike since 1839. However, Poe is only able to accomplish this through his unique writer’s style, particularly his forceful imagery and meaningful syntax.
