    an individual as a hero‚ and clearly‚ the lines between being a hero and simply being human can become quite blurry. Such is the case for the characters in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter Series. Many people are quick to name Harry as the one and only hero of the novels‚ but I argue otherwise. It seems impossible to say that Harry is not a hero at all‚ but is he the only hero? According to Margery Hourihan a hero is someone who “overcomes [his] opponents because he is strong‚ brave‚ resourceful‚ rational

Tim O Brien ’s work‚ In the Lake of the Woods‚ shows how men who have all experienced war‚ truly have walked in each other’s shoes. These traumatizing experiences impact the human spirit dramatically because once back from the war‚ veterans struggle to live normal lives. Only men and women who

    My Wood‚ by E.M. Forster is a witty essay depicting Forster’s reaction to the ownership of a small estate he bought with the royalties from a novel he wrote. He cleverly discusses the effects the wood may have on him. Forster conveys a negative attitude toward his experience of acquiring property through the use of biblical allusions‚ word choice‚ and the manipulation of sentences. This passage encourages us to think about the nature of materialism and the seductive power of our possessions.

    Number Four‚ Privet Drive The name of the street where the Dursleys live is a reference to that most suburban plant‚ the privet bush‚ which makes neat hedges around many English gardens. I liked the associations with both suburbia and enclosure‚ the Dursleys being so smugly middle class‚ and so determinedly separate from the wizarding world. The name of their area is ’Little Whinging’‚ which again sounds appropriately parochial and sniffy‚ ’whinging’ being a colloquial term for ’complaining or whining’
