10/13/14Alan Turning Knowledge for the World
Math genius, World War II hero and Father of Artificial Intelligence, get’s arrested in Manchester England, 1954. Alan reports to police in England that it appeared to him that things in his home such as shirts, pants, and sweaters were missing but nothing big of value. As the police arrive to Alan’s apartment, detectives interview him and put his ideas together as they realize that the thief behind this robbery can be his boyfriend at the time. Alan gets arrested; it’s a law in England that people of the same sex should not be seen in public or together in private. Police at the time had no idea that the person they were taking to jail was a War hero, said Robert.
Long before Allan Turning was arrested in his teenage years he was described to have dark hair, squared face but not unattractive. Allan was a goofy kid; many times he was bullied but never unhappy. He attended Shore Born School where he falls in love with a boy named Christopher Morcum. Alan described him as a charming, handsome and socially smooth kid. They both had a bond over science even though turning never declared his love for Morcum. Weeks from meeting him it comes to a sudden shock when Alan finds out that Christopher has passed away while at school from Bavarian Tuberculosis. Alan kept a relationship with Christopher’s mom after his death throughout the years, after this he realized many things on his own.
At this point Alan realizes the true love and the passion he has for math. He decides to go to study away at King's College Cambridge where he is described to be a loner. His thoughts through his lonely days in the fields of at King's College Cambridge led him to one question “Is there a quick automatic way to prove or disprove a mathematical proposition?” This question at the time was the big questions mathematician around the world were trying to find an answer to. This led to his idea to one

    Some families of “powhitetrash” lived on her farm land just behind the school. Momma made sure all of her children addressed the adults in a polite manner. It was almost an unspoken law, if you will, none of her children dared to violate the rule. Everyone knew about the accepted law, except for the “powhitetrash” children. At this point in the story, one might think it to be about the appalling and tragic history African Americans had undergone throughout the years. One might have even thought the end to be quite predictable, possibly concluding in an act of violence that could potentially start an uproar in society. I know I did.…

    This Boy's Life, set in America in the 1950’s, is a compelling memoir by Tobias Wolff, whom recreates the frustrations and cruelties faced throughout his adolescence, as he fights for identity and self-respect. During this period of time, America underwent major changes in the political and economic spheres, which in turn were responsible for its social makeover. Society in this time was geared toward family; marriage and children being part of the national agenda. The 1950’s was also an age of male dominance, where even if women worked, their assumed proper place was at home. Throughout the memoir, the protagonist, young Jack Wolff, makes it difficult for the reader to feel much affection towards him, as his actions prove to be troublesome and unruly. However, as the memoir progresses, Jacks struggle reveal the reasons for his actions which sequentially shape his character, providing the readers with understanding and sympathy towards his inexorable situation. The fraudulent lies and deceitful ways of Jack can be frustrating upon the reader; though we come to realise that he does this in order to be accepted by the people around him. Jack also engages in fights and unfaithfully betrays his best friend Arthur, although it becomes evident that he only does this in order to gain Dwight’s approval of him. The lack of a real father figure in Jack’s life has a profound impact on him and his desperate attempt to develop his identity, which further supports the readers’ emotions of sympathy towards him.…
