In this essay I plan to analyze the claim by Karl Marx that the bourgeoisie class produces its own "gravediggers". I will first present a definition of the bourgeoisie and the proletariat classes along with what Marx means by his claim. After discussing Marx’s claim and his support I will assert that his claim is false and was based on a false assumption. I will argue that Marx does not allow the possibility of an adaptation on behalf of the bourgeoisie. Furthermore‚ that Marx contradicts his claim

It most definitely fits better under Darko Suvin’s definition‚ “ a literary genre or verbal construct whose necessary and sufficient conditions are the presence and interaction of estrangement and cognition‚ and whose main imaginative framework alternate to the author’s empirical environment” (Roberts‚8).

Karl Marx‚ a 17th century journalist and philosopher believed there was no difference between work and art. He argued that man is defined by his ability to create through work.

Jamaica Kincaid once said “I think life is difficult and that’s that. I am not at all - absolutely not at all - interested in the pursuit of happiness. I am not interested in the pursuit of positivity.

In Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer‚ a young man named Chris McCandless

John by Jamaica Kincaid Annie John was‚ in my opinion‚ as poignant and universal a book dealing with adolescence as I have ever come across. The fact that it was the story of an adolescent girl‚ and that it took place in Antigua‚ in a vastly different racial‚ social‚ and economic climate than in which I personally grew up in‚ did nothing to lessen my ability to relate to the universal themes of adolescent growth and conflict. This alone speaks volumes of its author‚ Jamaica Kincaid‚ and her ability
