    A Land so Strange

    The book, A Land so Strange, tells of an expedition of 300 men, women, and enslaved Africans who set sail from Spain in 1528 under the leadership of Pánfilo de Narváez with the dream of settling Florida. Yet, a hurricane, lost ships, navigational errors, leadership follies, and challenges from Indians well capable of holding off would-be European conquest added up to a colossal disaster. Expedition members ended up wandering along the Gulf Coast before taking to the water on handmade rafts which finally washed up on the Texas coast, in course of which their numbers rapidly diminished as they fell victim to drowning, dehydration, starvation, and cannibalism (by their fellow castaways). A mere four survivors-Cabeza de Vaca, Alonso del Castillo, Andrés Dorantes, and an enslaved Moor known only as Estebanico remained. Throughout this reading, it will become quite clear that working with the Indians instead of against would have provided a more viable solution to the Spaniards survival predicament. Furthermore, the success of the Spanish in North American depended greatly on their relations with the natives. This will be seen through the embarrassing death of Narvaez and the success that Cabeza de Vaca experiences. Eventually, Cabeza and his crew begin to see the Indians as human beings and as a possible alliance in the harsh environment they are trying to conquer.…

    Every night that winter he said aloud into the dark of the pillow Half-past four Half-past four till his brain had gripped the words and held them fast. Then he fell asleep at once, as if a shutter had fallen and lay with his face turned to the clock so that he could see it first thing when he woke. It was half-past four to the minute, every morning. Triumphantly pressing down the alarm-knob of the clock, which the dark half of his mind had outwitted, remaining vigilant all night and counting the hours as he lay relaxed in sleep, he huddled down for a last warm moment under the clothes, playing with the idea of lying abed for this once only. But he played with it for the fun of knowing that it was a weakness he could defeat without effort just as he set the alarm each night for the delight of the moment when he woke and stretched his limbs, feeling the muscles tighten, and thought Even my brain even that I can control every part of myself. Luxury of warm rested body, with the arms and legs and fingers waiting like soldiers for a word of command Joy of knowing that the precious hours were given to sleep voluntarily for he had once stayed awake three nights running, to prove that he could, and then worked all day, refusing even to admit that he was tired and now sleep seemed to him a servant to be commanded and refused. The boy stretched his frame full-length, touching the wall at his head with his hands, and the bedfoot with his toes then he sprung out, like a fish leaping from water. And it was cold, cold. He always dressed rapidly, so as to try and conserve his night-warmth till the sun rose two hours later but by the time he had on his clothes his hands were numbed and he could scarcely hold his shoes. These he could not put on for fear of waking his parents, who never came to know how early he rose. As soon as he stepped over the lintel, the flesh of his soles contracted on the chilled earth, and his legs began to ache with cold. It was night the stars…

    The Land of Opportunity

    In the article “The Land of Opportunity” written by James Loewen the author argues that most students leave school (preferably high school) with no understanding of social inequality, mainly due to their assigned textbooks. When they are told by their teachers that America has a great deal of social inequality that continues to this day, the student’s reactions are never positive and almost always defensive. “The students blame the poor for not being successful. They have no understanding of the ways that opportunity is not equal in America and no notion that social structure pushes people around, influencing the ideas they hold and the lives they fashion.” (Loewen page 304).…

    1. In “A Sunrise on the Veld, Doris Lessing uses contrast to get her theme across. In the beginning of the story, the boy is very excited about life. He exclaims how he is fifteen and that he had a long and wonderful life ahead of himself. Then, Lessing brings the dying buck into the story. The buck symbolizes how life comes to an end. Everyone dies at some point and sometimes it is not expected as the young bucks death was. The boy becomes very disturbed by confronting death face to face. The quick change of emotions from jubilant to disturbed shows the contrast of feeling alive and then realizing death. The contrast is used to describe the theme of how everyone has a dreadful realization of death, usually after confronting if face to face.…

Since the beginning of American history, United States has focused more about equal opportunity than any other country.

    “A Sunrise on the Veld” by Doris Lessing reflects on the universal sentiment of youthfulness and amazement in existence shared by all mankind, shadowed by the devastating blow of adulthood, reality and death. The story starts with a boy triumphantly awakening early in the morning, displaying graceful control over his body. The boy had trained himself to outwit the frail part of his own psyche, to wake up half-past four every morning. He would even pompously jest with the notion of not getting out of bed, knowing that the warmth of his sheets could not conquer his self-determination.…
