James Baldwin uses a lot of ethos in his essay to show his position as a black man encountering the hardships during his era.

In Ivan Turgenev’s Fathers and Sons‚ love proves to have an all-encompassing influence as it pulls many characters into its grasp.

Another emotion he also felt was power in

JEWS AND DOGS NOT ALLOWED If I were to base my opinion of Jewish people solely on Mordechai Richler’s "Son of a Smaller Hero"‚ I would probably start wearing a Swastika on my arm and pledging my allegiance to the fuehrer. Richler characterizes Jews as a people who have an enormous lust for money‚ women‚ and power. Richler delivers a piece that seems the complete antithesis of his origional novel. While he crammed his former novel with soft-spoken words‚ which displayed his passion to inform on useful
