Daru is dealing with his values when he has to make a decision on how to handle the prisoner and what he is going to do. One value we see from Daru is friendship. Balducci who he considered a friend came with the prisoner and told Daru that he was to take him to the prison. At first Daru was very hesitant and saying “I won’t hand him over.” He didn’t want to take the Arab in because he didn’t think it was his job to but at the same time he didn’t want to say no because he didn’t want to ruin his friendship with this guy. After Daru had insulted Balducci he tried to say “I’ll see you off” but Daru had already ruined their friendship in a way.The second thing we see is that Daru values is freedom. He lets the prisoner make his own decision

    Character Analysis: A Raisin In The Sun

    The state of humanity is a debatable topic, as it constantly has its ups and downs. For example, while humanity is moving forward in areas such as knowledge and technology, there are still many displays of ignorance and stupidity that make people wonder if progress is being made at all. Lorraine Hansberry, the praised playwright behind A Raisin in the Sun and The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window, has experienced both the good and bad aspects of humanity and expresses it through her work. Although the majority of the characters and plot of A Raisin in the Sun suggest that humanity is repetitive, Hansberry uses some of her other characters,…

    Exploring Free Will and Decision Making in Albert Camus' Short Story "The Guest, "

    Balducci brings the Arab to Daru's door, informing Daru that "I have an order to deliver the prisoner and I'm doing so," (90) thus freeing Balducci of the responsibility over wherever the Arab ultimately ended up. Balducci didn't want the responsibility of the Arab possibly escaping, and by doing only as was expressly required of him (delivering the Arab to Daru's door and giving the orders of the Arab's destination to Daru), he was also setting the story so that any decision Daru later took was an act of Daru's alone and was not directly dependent on any other decision another man had made prior. Balducci avoids the social obligation he's supposed to feel. He should follow through on the prisoner's handling, but he doesn't have to. Balducci knows this, and decides to avoid the effort and instead justifies his leaving the Arab there by simply following his orders and not reading between the lines of the order.…

    Etienne Brule Character Analysis

    The first European to arrive to the Midwest region of the US was Etienne Brule during the early 1600’s. In 1622 or 1623 he went around Lake Superior, yet the record of his excursion was just composed down from gossip after Brule passed away by Gabriel Sagard-Theodat. One of a kind data about Wisconsin additionally shows up on Samuel de Champlain's guide of New France distributed in 1632, two years before Jean Nicolet came to Wisconsin, and is dared to have come to Champlain from Brule. Therefore, Jacques Marquette, a French missionary, was sent on a mission to Canada in 1666. Substituting Father Allouez at Chequamegon Bay in 1669, Marquette went ahead to construct the St. Ignace mission in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, in 1671 before the exploration of the Mississippi with Louis Joliet in 1673.…

    The Guest Injustice

    When Balducci came to Daru at the schoolhouse and told him the instructions that were given to him, is what changed Daru’s life (91). To be completely honest, the most unfair part about the entire situation is that Daru really never had much of a choice. Regardless of what Daru’s decision what have been, Balducci was not going to take the prisoner back, so ultimately Daru was forced to make his choice from there. Having the free will to do what one pleases is one of the most important aspects in life. There are many people who do not have the free will to do much of anything because of their culture, religion, society, or because of the choices someone has made for them. How would you feel if someone took your free will away? That is honestly one of the biggest injustices of…
