    movies is guilt‚ whether criminal‚ political‚ moral‚ or metaphysical. This guilt concerning the Holocaust was discussed in terms of different groups of people‚ including the offenders‚ bystanders‚ or future generations of Germans. In Schlink’s The Reader (1995)‚ for instance‚ guilt is an integral topic for the book’s main characters and they wrestle with it decades after the Holocaust. However‚ in non-fictional accounts from survivors‚ I do not think that their intent is to discuss or imply guilt

    Although the actual motive for killing was different in each of the novels Perfume and Frankenstein‚ it seems there were a few underlying similarities in the events that led up to the each character becoming a serial killer. In spite of the fact that each novel is about the progression of the main character’s serial killings‚ I still believe there is a clear moral message present in both the novels. In the novel Perfume‚ Grenouille is a young man who grows up never knowing a sense of belonging

    When comparing the levels of violence in Dexter to that of Natural Born Killers‚ I feel like the two are at polar opposite ends of the spectrum. Interestingly‚ both works feature a story line about a serial killer(s)‚ but the way in which they are presented are so completely differently that I am amazed at how different I can feel about the same subject matter (serial killers) all based on the presentation of the material. Take for instance the aspect of visual violence content in each production

    To Kill A Mockingbird—Response Harper Lee’s book‚ “To Kill a Mockingbird‚” is‚ in my opinion‚ a book with a diverse collection of messages‚ skillfully woven into an interesting and engaging story. It seems to me‚ though‚ that the book is very focused on symbolism. The symbol of mockingbirds is reoccurring in the book. It appears in the title‚ it is suggested in various characters and situations‚ and in parts of the book it is stated explicitly. For example‚ on page 90‚ Atticus told Scout and Jem

    In his essay‚ “The Importance of Writing Badly‚” Bruce Ballenger encourages students to write freely and to not worry about finding the “perfect way of saying it.” I feel by saying this he means to not worry about what you’re writing and it may not necessarily be perfect‚ but that you write what you are thinking and continue writing even if it’s bad or may not make sense. He means to put all your thoughts down on paper and start from there. Ballenger gives his students permission to write badly.
