HEALING THE SCARS AT THE SEAMS By: Freniel Mikko Austria (Literary Criticism) Freniel Mikko Austria is the present feature writer of the MARIAN‚ the official student publication of Saint Mary’s University Bayombong‚ Nueva Vizcaya. For me‚ the feature story Healing the Scars at the Seams is a very genius output of the author because on the title itself readers would show interest and give time to read it. On the other hand‚ I guess that we cannot get the deeper meaning of the story on its title

series and the Hunger Games trilogy. This genre covers several topics‚ in several different subgenres‚ but they all have one element in common‚ a main character is growing up. This concept of the “bildungsroman” or coming of age story has graced the pens of famous writers such as William Shakespeare‚ Charles Dickens‚ and Mark Twain‚ and yet‚ young adult books still get flack for being too “mainstream” or shallow.

Catching Fire is better than The Hunger Games in some key areas of storytelling‚ but it does not redeem this blockbuster trilogy of its principal flaw: its future is never fully believable. I suspect that‚ like Twilight fans‚ what appeals to the bulk of its fan base is not just the action-packed premise‚ but the love triangle at the heart of the tale‚ between put-upon teen heroine Katniss Everdeen‚ her Games partner Peeta Mellark (with whom she must put on a show of romantic feeling‚ though on his

“To Build a Fire” and “The Most Dangerous Game” Part A. In the story “To Build a Fire” it provides a great amount of writing devices‚ such as: Foreshadowing - to show or indicate beforehand; omen or warning. 1.

It says several times in the story “Fifty degrees below zero” over and over again‚ a human being can only survive so long alone in the cold

I knew “sailing through” was not going to work‚ and that I’d actually need to put a lot of effort in the course. The literary criticism paper was introduced to us in the beginning of the year‚ and everyone was anticipating it. Fast forward 9 months and the assignment is staring at me in the face. The assignment itself was put off to the side so blatantly that many of us simply forgot about it

In response to Robert Alter’s literary criticism of A Tale of Two Cities‚ I ultimately agree to his claims for the most part. He covers many insightful ideals‚ especially his connection with darkness and light throughout the novel. Alter provides substantial evidence from different literary aspects as seen through his correlating statements to darkness and light being a prevalent element throughout the novel. Symbolically‚ he demonstrates evidence through utilizing figures to represent the concept
