The text I am going to be analyzing is ‘My Papa’s Waltz’, a poem written by Theodore Roethke. The poem was written in 1942. The poem discusses a domestic situation of a little boy describing the behaviour and characteristics of his parents, especially his father. Roethke had a difficult relationship with his father, who died when he was fifteen, and the poem reflects that. The themes of the poem are family and admiration. The poem targets a broad audience, but is specifically interesting to those
When we hear of the word love, we may have experienced it before, but could be a challenge to put it into words, or create a definition of it. “Enduring Love” by Ian McEwan presents many types of “love” throughout its story line, and each of them present distinctive natures of love. It also makes clear of what love is made up of. There are two main love relationships formed throughout the novel. One is the love between Joe and Clarissa. The love between the two is mutual. However, while Joe is a
Everyday there are new victims to this unjustified social issue, and everywhere it happens, but the victims are helpless to stop it. This social issue perpetuates inequality, offensive stereotypes and unpleasant remarks/ observations. This social issue is known as sexism towards women and its continuity is being preserved by men. The artifact in question is a comic series called “Archie”. Although, not the entire series itself, but rather a specific piece, which states that all women are failures
Female characters propagate sex-positivity through their sexualization, and utilize it as a tool of shaping solidarity by eradicating the double standard concerned with male and female bodies (Pratl, 2009). Axel Alonso’s (2014) previous comments on the impossibility of “not sexualizing comic characters” are affirmed, as he mentions that not only physical ability and appearance take part in defining a character, but sex appeal as well. The argument that sexualizing female comic characters only leads
The Rocking-Horse Winner, by D. H. Lawrence, shocked readers when it was first released to the public. A story of a heartless, unlucky mother and a desperate son, captivated its audience. The short story begins with two parents living beyond their means, and a boy who wants to help provide for them.

This desperation to help his family
the implausible behavior of characters and events to ultimately establish and resolve the ongoing conflict within the play The often ironic and erratic behavior of Lady Bracknell establishes a social conflict at the beginning of the play, delving into the critical view Oscar Wilde has developed on the Victorian value of marriage. Lady Bracknell seeks for the epitome of the
Theodore Roethke’s, “My Papa’s Waltz,” uses a great deal of imagery by using the metaphor of the word “Waltz.” A Waltz is a dance that has a step to every beat of the music, while in close proximities to the other dancer, there is not much change and it is in fact quite repetitive. Already we begin to form an image Roethke is trying to provide us by saying “My Papa’s Waltz.” His usage of the word “Papa” is quite informal compared to the word, “father.” It is only upon reading and analyzing the rest
Throughout the novel The Unbearable Lightness of Being, by Milan Kundera, the black bowler hat is a reappearing object. This object consists of various meanings and is representative of many themes that appear within the story. Three vastly different elements are represented by this one object and that is one of the reasons why this hat is so important, especially because each time it reappears it holds a different meaning. This one physical object is representative of Sabina’s secret desire for
Would you feel naked if you saw an x-ray of yourself? What we might not see as sexual in current times could be interpreted differently and perhaps even as pornographic not so long ago. An important development in the visualisation of the human anatomy caused an interesting reaction. In the book The Magic Mountain (1924) by Thomas Mann, his main character Hans Castorp goes to visit his cousin in a sanatorium in Switzerland, because his cousin suffers from tuberculosis. During this time taking x-ray
The garden, like Mary, is a neglected place; left uncared for, behind the imprisoning walls, it has become a tangle of thorns and briars. Nurture, care and love restore the beauty and freedom of this wilderness. In turn Mary, like the roses, blossoms into a natural and healthy child, and is able to share this healing experience with Colin, her cousin. Danielle Price in her article ‘Cultivating Mary: The Victorian Secret Garden’ proves that the similarities between Mary and the secret garden exist

1220-1225). The hag says that she may be physically unattractive; however, she is a good woman and wife, characteristics that make her worthy of love. Furthermore, while the hag earlier suggests that a young, beautiful woman may be prone to having lovers, she also questions this stereotype. After the knight gives her the right to decide whether she should be a hag or a beautiful young woman, she chooses to be “both fair and good” (Chaucer 1241).

How does Miller explore the theme of Betrayal in ‘A View from the Bridge’? Betrayal is an extremely important theme in Arthur Millers 1950’s play ‘A View from the Bridge’. The setting and community of the play, play a vital role in showing this themes significance; with the Italian American Red Hook community underpinned by the law of Omertà, a code that dictates silence and forbade people from cooperating with authorities, an extremely obvious portrayal of how betrayal is loathed within the community
