Taylor Hager 12-11-2013 5th period Being a stranger in the village to me‚ means that you’re new and don’t know how things are performed. I was a stranger in the village when I joined a new soccer team. I was fifteen when I started playing for them. The team was full of Bishop Brossart girls and the girls have been playing together for six years. When I went to my first practice I didn’t know anybody.

Stranger Danger Making sure children are aware of the dangers that strangers can present without scaring them is a fine balancing act. If children are to spend anytime at all out of sight from parents/ carers teaching them about Stranger Danger may give some peace of mind. Children as young as 3/4 will begin to have some awareness of what Stranger Danger means and will understand what a stranger is and why they shouldn’t trust or go near them. Many local Police forces offer Stranger Danger courses

When someone says “Historical Fiction” my mind thinks of books written about Rome‚ Egypt‚ India‚ and other ancient civilizations. Maybe that’s what Historical Fiction is to most people. Yet‚ the simplest definition of historical fiction is that it is writing that is set in the past‚ before the author’s lifetime and experience‚ but there’s much more to it than that. Historical Fiction makes a point of conveying a serious respect for historical accuracy and detail‚ and its intention‚ beyond providing

Meursault‚ Camus’ protagonist‚ lives his life according to these tenets‚ however unwittingly‚ and for the majority of the novel reacts only to concrete‚ sensory things‚ showing neither understanding nor interest in more abstract societal constructs

Albert Camus‚ a well renowned existentialist author wrote many novels unlike others of his time. In his book “The Stranger” the role of ambiguity is seen throughout the books entirety.

Crime Fiction‚ more than any other genre‚ engages the reader through the art of suspense. The short stories “The Red Headed League” written by Arthur Conan Doyle and “Lamb to the Slaughter” by Roald Dhal‚ along with the T.V. episode “Third Floor Flat” directed by Christopher Gunning all use suspense to engage their audiences. Dhal uses both creativeness and clever use of manipulation of plot structure to intrigue the reader and build suspense. Similarly‚ Gunning misleads the audience’s interpretations
