There are other words that God could have chosen that would allow for the same message to be conveyed in scriptures without the gender assignments. Nowhere in the entire Bible does it refer to God by anything other than a male. I take the use

These expectations are expressed through the interactions between white and black characters‚ (for example‚ black men who are polite among whites are considered a high standard for other black men) and the main character‚ Bigger‚ picks up on these shifts on his own in order

    which states: “When one door of happiness closes‚ another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.” I feel that this epitomises what Larkin was portraying in the poem ’Dockery and Son’; a feeling of regret and a wondering of what the ’other door’ might hold. It could be seen that the older door of happiness is Larkin’s youth: a time of freedom‚ when they could be ’unbreakfasted’ and live without responsibilities; unlike the duties

In Native Son‚ Bigger‚ the main character‚ and his family are being over priced for a rundown‚ one-bedroom flat
