    A: In the clip of “O Brother: Where Art Thou?”, three escaped prisoners seek help from a blind old man on the railroad. The man speaks of the wondrous sights the prisoners will experience on their journey. Despite his blindness, the old man saw beyond physical limitations into the futures of the three men. This qualifies the blind man as a prophet because of his almost supernatural ability to predict what the three prisoners will encounter. Following the occurrence, the three prisoners are in shock. Unable to understand how the old man knew of the sought-after treasure, George Clooney’s character is left fumbling for answers. However, the prisoners cannot conceive how the blind man discerned the future, solidifying his role as a prophet.

    Just like the first book in the Bible, the first book of The Poisonwood Bible is named Genesis. As well as the beginning, Genesis can also mean rebirth. When characters arrive in the Congo they realize the things they brought with them are changed by Africa and can no longer be as they once were. In this way, Genesis symbolizes the process of becoming their new selves. For instance, the first chapter in The Poisonwood Bible, narrated by Orleanna, strongly shows the guilt that the Congo had left her to live with after the death of Ruth May. Likewise, Eve, the first woman in Genesis, forced all of mankind to shoulder the guilt of eating the forbidden fruit.…

    Jared Diamond has done extensive field work in New Guinea. His indigenous New Guinean politician friend Yali asked why whites had been so successful and arrived with so much "cargo" compared to the locals. Diamond rephrases this question: why did white Eurasians dominate over other cultures by means of superior guns, population-destroying germs, steel, and food-producing capability? Diamond’s main thesis is that this occurred not because of racial differences in intelligence, etc. but rather because of environmental differences. He wishes to play down Eurocentric thinking and racist explanations because they are loathsome and wrong.…

    1. Genesis - For this book, I believe that Kingsolver chose to name it ‘Genesis’ because it foreshadows what is going to happen in this section of the novel. In Genesis, this is where God creates this new world. Essentially, this is what the Price family is doing on their expedition in Africa. They’re doing this by bringing all these modern things, and opening their eyes to thing that they’ve never noticed before, for example, when Mr. Price explained how nudity was a bad thing; “But Father skipped over all that and went straight to the dire consequences: ‘The emissaries of the Lord smote the sinners, who had come heedless to the sight of God, heedless in their nakedness.’” (37). Also, in Genesis, God warns Adam and Eve to not eat from the tree, however they ignore his word and do so anyways, which ended in severely bad consequences. The same thing happens to Reverend Price, for when Mama Tataba warned him that the Poisonwood Tree would “bite,” he ignored it, and the next day his arms and hands were covered in a painful rash, and his eye was swollen shut as well. “‘That one, brother, he bite,’ she said, pointing her knuckly hand at a small tree he was wresting from his garden plot. … My father woke up the next morning with a horrible rash on his hands and arms… Even his good right eye was swollen shut,…” (39-40).…

    Milton’s Paradise Lost is essentially the book of Genesis on steroids. Looking specifically at Book three and seven of Paradise Lost we will notice many descriptions and events that have been added to the book. The three most noticeable differences in Paradise Lost (book three and seven) compared to the book of Genesis in the Bible are: the devil’s use of Uriel to get to Earth, both the process of Jesus being asked to be the savior of the world and the dialogue between God and Jesus, and the use of the archangel Raphael to warn the oncoming temptation of Satan in book seven. All three of these are not mentioned in the Bible, and have been added by Milton to add excitement,…

    Everyone, at least once in their lifetime, has been an advocate for the bad guy; whether it would be Heith Ledger, playing the Joker, verses Batman or the innocent Satan verses the tyrant God. John Milton does a fantastic job in letting his audience observe Satan in a new manner that one has not analyzed before. Milton portrays Satan as the most likable character in Paradise Lost, yet he is thought of being the foulest individual in the social realm. Satan stands above the rest of the characters in the poem, a once archangel casted out of heaven, trying to find his way in the universe. Although he is depicted as the most sentimental character of the poem, Satan is still the profound angel that society recognizes him as today. Milton’s exclusive…
