    Lady Murasaki was a Japanese poet at the Imperial court and served under Empress Shōshi. She writes this diary during her experiences at court and she finds the life of a lady-in-waiting, or a servant that has social certainty, and the events that are unfolded in court are important. She describes in her diary how she feels helpless at court and she is unhappy with her low rank in society compared to others in the Fujiwara clan which frustrates her, but makes her more inclined to write about it and keep a diary.

    “But Hatsumomo threw herself at Shojiro and began hitting him everywhere. I do think that in a way she went crazy,” (330). Hatsumomo, a prized and popular geisha, turns into something else altogether. Sadistic acts such as treating children with disrespect, sabotaging the livelihood of others, and physical violence were the root cause of her downfall. These actions reflect on her hateful yet confident personality. Hatsumomo, who is oftentimes the center of attention, illustrates how being narcissistic and remorseless will never help achieve a goal. Hatsumomo ruins her future prospects by committing cruel actions, which are motivated by her desire of becoming the heir of the Okiya.…

    Ronald Takaki uses the narrative of the “Giddy Multitude” to demonstrate how the colonial elite used race and the idea of blackness to develop a social system of classification. White identity formation was made possible for white elite through certain types of work and the ability to accumulate assets. Social status also contributed to the economic context of competition over land. The law in Virginia was a legal factor that also contributed to the making of whiteness because it allowed poor whites to have privileges. Along with those privileges the idea of citizenship was created and defined in terms of who would benefit from this nation. In order for someone to be a citizen that person had to be a wealthy white male. Power and white identity was a way in which citizenship was linked to notions of whiteness, class, and gender.…

    “The very controversy caused by Roald Dahl's works for early adolescents has drawn millions of teens to his books and, subsequently, encouraged them to enjoy reading. These young people found in Roald Dahl something that they could not find anywhere else: an author with a view of society that was essentially identical to their own--distrustful of authority figures and firm in the belief that good will triumph. Concerning Dahl's popularity, the librarian of one middle school made this comment during the spring of 1997: "Roald Dahl's books are always on our reorder list, for copies of his books circulate so much they are worn in no time! The titles are always checked out and usually on reserve!" (Crawford). Roald Dahl's view of society, his contempt…

    The first reason why I believe she is the most dynamic character is because of her change in identity. During the beginning of the play Beneatha had straight hair, along with everyone else in her family that was a female. She enjoyed and did not mind her straight hair; until Asagai pointed out that she was conforming to society. He was speaking of the act of imitating the behavior of some situation or some process by means of something suitably analogous, or a simulation. He makes the argument that she should straighten her hair because she should keep her original routes. He begins to speak of being assimilated or, people of different backgrounds come to see themselves as part of a larger national family. Another thing that Beneatha to change her identity was listen to different types of music. She did this in the hopes to prove to her family she did not want to conform. She wanted to prove that she could stay true to her heritage.…
