    Deceit in How Stories Came to Earth, Coyote Steals Fire, and Master Cat: Puss in Boots

    Sophocles once stated, “Success is sweet, even if it comes from deception.” This truth is portrayed through three different short stories known as “How Stories Came to Earth”, “Coyote Steals Fire”, and “Master Cat: Puss in Boots”. In each of these three tales the main character spins webs of deceit by tricking people or, in some cases, animals into doing what they want them to. This includes Anansi’s act of tricking a snake into stretching himself out so Anansi could tie the snake to the stick in “How Stories Came to Earth.” Another form of deceit used, this time, in “Coyote Steals Fire” is when Coyote pretends to be dead in order to steal the fire from Thunder. In the story “Master Cat: Puss in Boots” Puss creates many empty threats to tell people so that they will lie for him. Each character obtains what he/she wishes to through a form of deception. While “How Stories Came to Earth”, “Coyote Steals Fire”, and “Master Cat: Puss in Boots” share similar tricksters who ultimately achieve their goals, they differ on the subject matters of their strategies, the benefits their tricks play on society, and the justification of their actions.…

Lance Peter Sijan; does this name sound familiar to you? Probably not, since he died nearly 50 years ago. Lance happens to be a ‘Medal of Honor’ recipient which is the highest award you could receive in the United States military. He was captured in the Vietnam war when he suddenly crash landed which left him stranded for 46 days until he was taken to a NVA camp. You see, there is a lot to know about Lance Sijan. After finishing the book, I realized that I actually knew a lot about him to the point where it felt like I knew him.

    How Cats And Mice Became Enemies

    One way that they are alike is that it tells how they became enemies, for example the Rat pushes the Cat selfishly into the river, and in the story he eats the boat and Cat thinks that Rat was trying to kill him and he tries to kill Rat. Another way they are alike is in both the legend and the story they are crossing a river, and in the story the Rat eats the boat that they were crossing the river in and in the legend the Rat pushes Cat off of the Ox while crossing the river.Lastly in both Cat gets mad at Rat and tries to hurt him, like when the Cat and Rat cross the river and Rat eats the boat and Cat gets mad and tries to kill him or when they are crossing the river and the Rat pushes him off Ox’s back and Cat gets mad and tries to kill him. These reasons are why I think that the two stories about Cat and Rat are more…

    Comparing Monkey's Paw, The Tell-Tale Heart, And The Raven

    The texts "Monkey's Paw", "The Tell-Tale Heart", and "The Raven" all share similarites and differences. The stories all use word choice to create suspence and have similar themes. All of the stories have the theme of "what you want may not always be best". In "The Raven", the narrator wants for his lost love, Lenore, to come back and to no longer have sorrow. But, when a raven arrives (presumbably to rid him of his sorrow) he becomes furious, proving that what he wanted isn't what he needed. In "Monkey's Paw", the husband and wife wish for 200 pounds and recieved it, but at the cost of the death of their son. This shows that by getting what they wanted they lost what they needed. In "The Tell-Tale Heart", the narrator wanted to kill the old…

    Anthropomorphism And A Trickster's Tale

    An example of when Master Cat used his intelligence would be when he told his master to go for a swim in the river. When the King drove past the river, Master Cat acted as if his master was drowning. By doing this he created a scenario in which he could come up with a reasonable explanation as to why his master was not dressed properly. Another similarity between the two stories is that in each story a significant, power figure is present. In “How Stories Came to Earth”, the power figure is the sky-god, meanwhile in “Master Cat”, the power figures would be the ogre and the king. Typically, the main character is trying to get something from the power figure. In these stories, Anansi is trying to receive the stories from the sky-god and Master Cat is trying to take the ogre’s castle, and the king's wealth and daughter. A third similarity between the two stories is that in both whatever the main character gains in culturally important. Anansi gained the stories which he in return shared with the world. These stories were then able to be knowledge to everyone and society benefited from…

    The Monkey's Paw Analysis

    Upon reading the two short stories, “The Fat Man” and ‘The Monkey’s Paw”, I have found many differences and few similarities. With the stories both being from the same genre, horror, I thought they would have more in common. Turns out, different subgenres really do make a difference. “The Fat Man” fits very well in the weird tales subgenre, while “The Monkey’s Paw” fits more into the gothic subgenre. Both very different subgenres.…
