President George Bush’s letter to Iraqi President Saddam Hussein is‚ at least on the surface‚ a persuasive piece intended to convince the Iraqi leader to withdraw his forces from occupied Kuwait before war breaks out. Upon closer reading‚ however‚ the critical reader will see that Bush’s "argument" is‚ in fact‚ not much of a rational argument (let alone a convincing one)‚ which is odd in that Bush himself repeatedly points out that much is at stake. The superficiality of the American President’s

From a simple pass time to a career‚ a lot of thought goes behind the narrative configuration of novels and films. Narrative configuration is a technique of telling the story and how the plot is arranged. The novel Mildred Pierce by James M. Cain and and the movie Mildred Pierce produced by Warner Brothers contain the same basic story. However‚ the two have different ways of telling the story. Part of narrative configuration is the configuration of time. How are the events organized? The movie is

The entire novel is narrated through the eyes of Chief Bromden‚ a Red Indian who is considered by everyone to be deaf and dumb. The Chief gives us an insight into the character sketch of all the participants in the story‚ including himself.

Through this reflective journal I

Always the master of comic irony‚ Henry is at the top of his form in this story of two incompetent would-be kidnappers‚ Sam Howard and Bill Driscoll. The story is told in the first person by protagonist Sam‚ whose grand vocabulary and self important attitude helps set the stage for the major fall he and his partner Bill take when they capture a malevolent red-headed hellion‚ Johnny Dorset (a worthy antagonist)‚ and attempt to hold
