Analysis of the portrayal of class in an American TV series Contemporary class differences should not longer cause problems in social life. As differences between high class and low class members are growing‚ difficulties in communication expand at the same measure. The US sitcom “2 Broke Girls”‚ produced by Michael Patrick King in 2011‚ tackles these issues and creates a TV series‚ which is not as funny as it is expected from a comic sitcom‚ and therefore criticizes not only sitcoms of that genre

Mocking Bird “Cry about the simple hell people give other people- without even thinking” My considered opinion of this novel in the light of this comment. If Harper Lee had limited her portrayal of prejudice and discrimination merely to the trial of Tom Robinson‚ a victim of the most virulent form of racial prejudice‚ “To Kill a Mockingbird” would probably be little more than a historical footnote. Wisely‚ though‚ Lee manages to tie racial

Chinua Achebe’s first novel Things Fall Apart is a story about an Igbo village in the late 1800’s. In the story‚ Achebe depicts women in Igbo society as a sadly oppressed group with no power.

In the novel‚ the author "analyzes the destruction of African culture by the appearance of the white man in terms of the destruction of the bonds between individuals and their society"(Chun‚ par1)

Portrayal of the Truth in Hollywood Films Most people are likely to relate Hollywood with money. If a person lives in the Hollywood area‚ people assume she or he is probably rich. If she or he is a Hollywood movie star‚ the person probably makes a lot of money. Therefore‚ to follow that line of thought‚ when Hollywood producers make a movie‚ they make it just for money. And some filmmakers do seem to make films only for the money the movies will earn. The action movie "Die Hard"‚ the
