Comedy Critique Goethe’s Faust and Voltaire’s Candide were two of the most interesting books that I have ever read! Both comedies were very different from each other in many ways. The structure of both books varied significantly. I enjoyed Candide more than Faust partially due to the structure. I found that because Faust almost entirely rhymed that it was harder to follow. It was very distracting to me and I felt as if the rhyming took away from the story. Candide was told more like a story and

the cleanest way to communicate truth. Their literature supports their thought that symbolism has the power to mean many different things simultaneously. In their literature‚ romantics do not use literary realism‚ but instead use this symbolism to critique or comment on reality by distorting this reality. One of the things that the Romantics strongly believed and is clearly portrayed in Frankenstein is the evil of the unnatural‚ and that nature is inherently good. For the Romantics‚ unnatural meant

Why Sherlock Holmes is Just as Original as C. Auguste Dupin After reading two famous amateur detective stories by Edgar Allan Poe and two by Arthur Conan Doyle‚ I found myself questioning the originality of Doyle’s stories as compared to Poe’s stories. The stories in question are "The Purloined Letter" and "Murders in the Rue Morgue" by Poe and "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" and "A Scandal in Bohemia" by Doyle. All four of these stories had very exciting story lines and had very interesting

The way that she uncovers and develops the monster is done very well. It ’s very fascinating how she introduces the monster briefly‚ then goes on and shows Frankensteins entire side of the story before she brings the monster back and shares his story. His story is well written and easily imaginable. The transition from Frankenstein ’s point of view to the monster ’s point of view was done very well‚ also. On Frankenstein ’s portion of the book‚ though‚ Shelley has a lot of lamentations on insignificant
