Although all of the texts that we have read in class are of equal importance‚ I have chosen to compare “The Death of Ivan Ilyich” by Leo Tolstoy‚ “Faust” by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe‚ and “From Song of Myself” by Walt Whitman. All works have to do with the sense of self and coming to terms with the world around them. To begin‚ “The Death of Ivan Ilyich” is about a man who lived a life based on the world around him and what was expected of him‚ he was not living for himself. Ilyich’s life was an

Individualism: The root element of individualism is the supposition that individuals are self-reliant from one another. For this‚ a number of logical consequences or indications can be determined. A question that can inquire into the significant research is whether the research has analytically approved the plausible consequences and whether the plausible consequences are specifically part of the individualism or not. Geert Hofstede has defined individualism as a focus on rights above duties

Poetry has come a long way since the early days of American history. During the early 1800s‚ American poetry was reminiscent of European poetry‚ both in content and form. The poet that began to change all of that was Walt Whitman. His poetry had a drastically different form to poetry that came before his‚ employing free verse instead of traditional rhyme schemes‚ and reflecting American culture. More modern poets may have grown away from Whitman’s themes‚ but many still employ literary devices pioneered

Whitman is a big believer of individuality and finding oneself while submerging into other individuals observing other perspectives at the same time. Whitman expresses that his inner self does not change by using long sets of repetitions throughout most of his poems such as poem 31‚ the repetition of “in vain” stating that everyone in the world cares what others think of themselves no matter how hard a person tries not to. Whitman illustrates that no matter what a person has experienced‚ the person

Through the poem ：When I Heard the Learn・d Astronomer；‚ Whitman leaves a dominant impression of his own view of astronomy and it・s abundance. He describes how the speaker recounts a day sitting through an astronomy lecture‚ listening to the astronomer・s dull mathematical descriptions of the stars by charts and figures. Gradually the speaker gets sick of its content. Instead‚ the speaker finds understanding and satisfaction just by wandering off plainly looking up at the night sky. The speaker generates

Ralph Waldo Emerson and Walt Whitman both expressed their similarities and differences of transcendental views through nature and individualism. Both Emerson and Whitman use nature to express the idea that society should be open-minded to the beauty of nature that surrounds them. As Emerson explains the sublimity of nature‚ he points out that “the sun illuminates only the eye of the man” (220). Transcendentalists are deeply connected with nature as both Emerson and Whitman accepted it as the divinity
