Hate In 'Lady And The Tiger'
On the subject of hate and different beliefs, I have some evidence and experience with all of that fun stuff. As I read throughout the unit, I found so many examples of what hate is and how many forms it takes. After reading the stories in the unit, I can conclude that hate is in every single one of them because it takes on forms like jealousy, greed, sadness, and anger. For example in the Lady and the tiger, it shows a lot of jealousy and a strain between two decisions.

In the Lady and the Tiger, the princess is in love with a man that has the terrible fat of being in the arena. In the arena are two doors that contain 2 very different things. One door contains a bride that the man has to marry on the spot and the other door is a man-eating

    ' Hey Diddle Diddle, Who Did-Dle It-Dle?

    The sound of cowbells filled the decorated barn around noon. Chairs were decorated with lace and fragrant water lilies. Daisy, the small, feisty brown cat, played Canon on the fiddle as China Dish, the fancy china dish, walked down the aisle to her soon to be husband, Soup Spoon, a long silver soup spoon. The barn was immediately filled with silence as the vows were exchanged. Sunlight warmed the barn with a soft glow. The audience had a range of “awws’ and tears of joy for the, almost, newly married couple. Mr. Moo, the large, quiet dairy cow, was standing in his stall while marrying the couple, China and Soup stood on the gate below below his head so the small audience could enjoy the…

    Theme Of Jealousy In Frank R. Stockton's The Lady Or The Tiger

    The princess in “The Lady or the Tiger” struggles when determining the youth’s fate either consisting of death or marriage to another beautiful lady as she contemplates “Which [door to open. The answer is] as plain to her as if [the youth] shouted it from where he stood. There was not an instant to be lost. The question [of which door to open] was asked in a flash; it must be answered in another” (Stockton 302). The princess is forced to decide the youth’s fate in a split second. The short amount of time that is taken for her to make her decision suggests that her emotions may have overruled reason and could lead to her regretting her decision later in life. In a single second, lives could be drastically changed. Up until the last moment, the youth, that the princess had loved, believes that she will spare him; he has a blind faith in the princess and trusts in her choices. The king’s daughter’s heart is torn during this point of decision. She must decide whether she would prefer to see the youth dead or with the lady whom she…

    Hatred In Octavia Butler's Kindred

    Something both Dana and Alice would have in common more than just looks and skin color would be the subjects of the Weylin men’s tempers. For example, when Dana is caught by Tom reading in the cookhouse in front of Nigel “didn’t I tell you I didn’t want you reading!” (106) Tom justifies the whipping for disobedience on more than just reading “I treated you good and you pay me back by stealing from me” (106). What’s clear is Tom and Rufus both use guilt when they feel betrayed to lash out in anger, and furthermore to justify it. However, there is a parallel event here, when Dana and Kevin are caught leaving the plantation Rufus stops them at gun point “you were just going to leave…no thanks nothing at all” (185) Rufus feels that same betrayal…
