Allusions were used sporadically by Bradbury to help the reader use printed word to paint mental images. They can be defined rather simply‚ as they are merely a reference to a historical or contemporary‚ person‚ place‚ event‚ or work of literature‚ but they can help the story flow nonetheless. The first allusion was encountered when Montag approached the woman with books in “The Hearth and the Salamander” and she quoted ‘“‘Play the man‚ Master Ridley; we shall this day light such a candle‚ by God’s

doing them. Through allusion‚ repetition‚ and synecdoche‚ he supports a message of uncertainty as he gets older and makes decisions in his life.

Coming into college I had no idea what I wanted to major in‚ although that statement is somewhat misleading. I did have some idea‚ but it just was not completely my own idea. My entire family works (or is in school) in the field of engineering‚ so naturally growing up in that environment made me want to follow in their footsteps. I encountered a problem when I was not accepted into my first college choice‚ NC State‚ which made me scramble to apply to Winthrop. This lead me to start taking the types

Coming out was one of the most difficult things I have ever done. Two words‚ just two‚ stuck like peanut butter on the roof of my mouth. So hesitant to ever actually say those words. In my mind it was so simple‚ yet so complex. My lips would always shut close and trap the words inside of me whenever I had the urge to just speak those two words. It was so clear in my head yet to the rest of the world it wasn’t. I had no clue that these words would be a pivotal part in identifying me for the rest of

Good morning/afternoon my fellow crime fiction fans and we are here gathered today at the crime fiction convention. I have been given the opportunity to be here and talk to you about the crime movie Gone in 60 Seconds.

In the article “Coming to an Awareness of Language” by Malcolm X he brings the question of what it truly means to be free. He answers that by saying “Between Mr. Muhammad’s teachings‚ my correspondence‚ my visitors . . . and my reading of books‚ months passed without my even thinking about being imprisoned. In fact‚ up to then‚ I never had been so truly free in my life” (Malcolm X). In the early life‚ Malcom X was involved in the underworld of Harlem where he was known as Big Red. In 1946‚ he was
