similarities between humans and elephants‚ which is how human perception of elephants began to change. “And yet just as we now understand that elephants hurt like us‚ we’re learning that they can heal like us as well”(Siebert 361). Siebert’s word choice of “learning‚” in this case translates directly into‚ “changing our perception to see that…”. After people began to realize that elephant psychology is similar to human psychology‚ people began to treat the outlashing elephants with therapy‚ similar to how

The production of The Elephant Man was absolutely breathtaking. It could be easily inferred that everyone involved put their very heart and souls into bringing this play to life. It truly was a phenomenon‚ probably never to be replicated ever again. No matter how many weekends the show continues. Indeed‚ going into the play‚ I was curious in regards to several aspects‚ most revolving around how they would portray Merrick. Be that as it may‚ the actors were able to gather up all my mundane interpretations

it is of my experience that a healthy dose of skepticism works wonders in pointing out biases. That healthy dose of skepticism can easily reveal that Pitts in this essay is very biased. First things first‚ there’s an elephant in the room that needs to be addressed. That elephant is the writer’s overuse of quotations used in a “sarcastic” form. Many times throughout this essay he uses words such as “uncomfortable” in a seemingly sarcastic tone. This first and foremost is a dead giveaway that Pitts

The story that is not typically heard is what it really feels like to put on a uniform‚ go to war‚ and come home. The psychological and emotional trauma these young men and women face in war is nothing short of moral anguish. This is evident in Haruki Murakami’s gruesome story‚ “Another Way to Die.” Here is a lieutenant struggling with the barbaric orders he was given to execute three prisoners with a bayonet and a fourth prisoner with a baseball bat. Throughout the story the lieutenant would often

During the time of imperialistic rule‚ rich empires were able to take over those of lesser value and benefit from their resources. This is the exact situation going on in Shooting an Elephant by George Orwell; the British had taken over the Burmese. Through Orwell’s use of stylistic and rhetorical strategies‚ he conveys the inferior attitude he has towards himself and the trapped‚ conflicted attitude he feels towards his position in Burma‚ which both stem from the negative aspects of imperialism

trustworthily because I think it is told in the first person. Murakami tells this story because I think that he wants to get his points across about life very clearly throughout this novel. This novel starts out with some very interesting conversation. “Within the bounds of that sixteen-step world‚ I bear the title of “Most Courteous of Drunks.” A simple achievement. One has only to accept the fact of being drunk at face value”(Murakami 15). I could only conclude one thing from ready this part‚
