Baby Kochamma is the antogonist of the novel the god of small things written by arundhati roy. She always puts down the two twins rahel and estha and looks down on ammu for getting a divorce.We don’t know about you‚ but if we had to pick the character we dislike the most in the novel‚ it would probably be Baby Kochamma.

Good morning to fellow classmates. Today I will be talking about the usage of the animal metaphor to examine race in Maus. The metaphor of Jews as mice is taken directly from Nazi propaganda‚ which portrayed the Jews as a kind of vermin to be exterminated. The purpose of using this metaphor is therefore to undermine the Nazi propaganda by ironically going with it. So the Jews are depicted as mice‚ but Spiegelman shows the humanity of the mice – their innocence‚ their vulnerability‚ their tragic

The existence of God provides a convenient answer to unexplained questions‚ while never providing answers to the questions about God himself.

This alternative channel of communication‚ despite ultimately still being limited in reach‚ allows these oppressed women to express their personal self

Does God exist? The question of God’s existence is a perplexing one‚ the only evidence we have of God is what we are told from those who worship him‚ and unknowns can be debated logically if a higher being is in control. It has been written that in the beginning there was man and there was woman‚ and God put the two together to create a new race of beings.

We must make loggers a profession
