    Another aspect that both movies have in common is that they are much more true when it comes to showing the reality of African Americans in the 50s and 60s. The scenes where the journalist travels through hitchhiking are very intense because they show the attitude of white men towards black men, their perverse fascination over the subject of Afro American men lust after “their” women. It unmistakably pictures how they…

    As president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, in his second inauguration speech, surprises his audience by not giving a long, protracted harangue on politics and states’ rights, instead, he gives a concise lecture on the evilness of slavery and not charging the south with the entire cause of the war. And through juxtaposition, biblical allusion, and classical appeals, Lincoln articulates his purposes: to urge public amnesty for the south and to reunite the Unites States under one flag.…

    Skunk Hour by Robert Lowell and The Armadillo by Elizabeth Bishop are very similar poems. The two poems have the theme and title of an animal. One of the contrasts that I could pick out between the two poems is: The Armadillo depicts a creature who cannot understand the events destroying its life, whereas the speaker in Skunk Hour recognizes the events affecting its life.…

    The first story I’m comparing is “The Drummer Boy of Shiloh” and it is about a young drummer boy named Joby (around 14 years old) who is camping with soldiers in a field near to Shiloh. He is afraid of marching into battle with no weapons but his drum and his drumsticks. Joby is afraid of dying and just as he starts to lose hope, a general comes up to him and re-motivates him. He explains to Joby how important a drummer boy’s job is and helps him calm down and become braver than he was before.…

    Following the Civil War, Radical Republicans in Congress held tight control of the fragile nation, forcing policies past a Southern Democratic President and into law. These Reconstruction programs had a few goals in mind, and many, especially the more moderate, Republicans focused primarily on restoring the Union. Additionally, radicals attempted to grant full civil liberties to former slaves. In general, all pursuing Reconstruction wished to reiterate the unity of the United States, and most, especially from the North, wanted to grant partial civil rights to African Americans. However, in trying to reform the South, while the Northerners did succeed in passing much legislation, they did little to reform culture in the South. Consequently,…

    Beware of the Dog

    The plot constructions of the short stories are based on similar concepts and are designed to demonstrate problems faced in war. Both main characters are members of an armed force, pitted against a known enemy, and nothing is quite as it may seem at first. Both men are injured by the enemy, and they must save themselves. It is only minor differences that set the plots apart. For example, in "Beware of the Dog," Peter, a fighter pilot, loses a leg, ends up being captured, and must concede himself to fate. In "The Sniper," the main character is sniper who injures him arm, triumphs over the other sniper, and eventually must live with the fact that he has killed his own brother. The two plotlines focus not only on the war struggle but also on the differing end results of those struggles through irony.…
