Exoticism‚ Extirpation‚ Ambivalence‚ and Identity: Flora in Kincaid’s “My Brother” Jamaica Kincaid’s “My Brother” is a mini-epic about disjointed family‚ loss of identity and absolution‚ all of which are represented quite distinctly in the story through setting—more specifically‚ by the plant life in the story. Symbolism‚ I feel‚ should not be part of a universal lexicon; artistically superior symbols are only tied to specific works (while less talented authors use symbols from the extensive canon

Continental drift has helped create the diversity we see present in modern day plants and animals. Through a process of speciation‚ the movement of the continents has had a generous role throughout evolution‚ effecting and distributing flora and fauna. The Earth’s continents were once one‚ a large supercontinent called Pangea that later separated into two smaller ones known as Gondwana and Laurasia. The separation and collision of continents has not only created some of the valleys and mountain ranges

In my research of the Fibonacci Numbers‚ I have found that the Fibonacci numbers appear anywhere from leafs on plants‚ patterns of flowers‚ in fruits‚ some animals‚ even in the human body. Could this be nature’s numbering system? For those who are unfamiliar with the Fibonacci numbers they are a series of numbers discovered by Leonardo Fibonacci in the 12th century in an experiment with rabbits. The order goes as follows: 1‚ 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ 5‚ 8‚ 13‚ 21‚ 34‚ 55‚ 89‚ 144‚ 233‚ 377‚ 610 and so on. Starting
