    Writing The Comparison/contrast Paper Life carries with it many obstacles and with those obstacles‚ opportunities to grow. For some of us it could be getting married and leaving your old life behind‚ and for others it could be starting life anew and abandoning everyone from the past. These moments‚ these decisions‚ shape a person for the rest of their life. In the writings of James Joyce’s “Eveline‚” and William Faulkner’s “Barn Burning‚” growth is probably the central theme of both stories. I

    Joyce’s ’Eveline’ is a story about a young woman who was unhappy with her life so decides to run off with a man whom she fell in love with. The plot of the story is a quest-like search for the love she doesn’t feel with her father. The writer spreads this throughout the story‚ showing the depth of Eveline’s character and her problems that come mainly from her father and all that arise from their relationship. The best moment in ’Eveline’ only comes after the long flashbacks into Eveline’s life end

    Eveline and Araby Both Eveline and Araby were well written short stories by James Joyce. Reading these two stories without performing any analysis or study‚ it would be improbable to notice their similarities considering they embody abstruse and obscure symbols within their settings and situations. But after meticulous study‚ the similarities in their themes and plot become clear and apparent. Eveline and Araby share the same theme‚ which is knowing the distinctions between the real and the ideal

    In “Eveline‚” James Joyce uses the juxtaposition of the ever-changing setting and the unchanging stoic character of Eveline in order to exemplify the character’s reluctance and inability to move forward. James Joyce is known for his juxtaposition of light and dark throughout his short stories‚ specifically in his story “Araby.” I would argue that Joyce is using the contrast of opposing forces described above between the setting and the character in a similar way as he was light and dark. “Araby”

    In "Araby" and "Eveline" Joyce uses religious symbols to show the importance of the Catholic religion in both of the main characters’ lives.

    Katherine Mansfield wrote “Eveline” and “Miss Brill” about two females across the ocean who were trapped in the “man’s world” life presented them with. Both tales are about characters who attempt to escape the unique circumstances around them. While both Eveline and Miss Brill seek different escape routes to avoid the negativity of their environment‚ both of their failures reveal the sad state of women in European society during that time period. On the surface‚ Miss Brill and Eveline are two vastly different
