    How to Read Literature Like a Professor by Thomas C. Foster has shown me how to reach true understanding in my future reading of literature and has helped me to reach a new depth in works of literature I have already analyzed. Swimming, seasons, weather and diseases have all taken on more than simply a set scene. Abuse of power over youth or the uneducated is more noticeable. The use of irony is more noticeable. This book has armed me with the ability to recognize political meaning within literary works. Armed newly with this knowledge I reanalyze several novels from my high school career and I learn more about the author as well as the characters who the authors present me with.…

    A short story and poem, no matter how structurally different are two literary pieces where a rich story is embedded. Readers are drawn towards these scripts by means of rhythm (poem), characterization, or a fictional setting in their respective narratives. However, the mere writing would not make it entertaining enough. It would depend on the imagination of the readers as they are reading the writings put in front of them. Every reader has their own way of visualizing the descriptions and symbolism used by the author. The three literary pieces, “The Road Not Taken” (poem), and the two…

    Throughout time in Early Modern England, both gender hierarchy and the husband 's patriarchal job as the sole leader of his family and household were believed to have been the wishes of God. These beliefs were instilled in the literature of this time period mainly due to this great religious influence. The patriarch’s role was sometimes even seen equal to the Hand of God himself, but more commonly the king in the state. Both unmarried women and married women were often reminded of their rightful duty to anything requested from their husband, or any male for that matter. Also servants and children were the most dependent on their father’s and owner’s. This strict dependence can be seen throughout many novels and stories in English literature, some of which include “The Horse Dealer’s Daughter”, “Frankenstein”, “The Importance of Being Earnest”, “The Waiter’s Wife”, “Shakespeare’s Sister”, and “Death by Landscape”.…

    A common theme in The Veldt is the constant struggle for power between humans and technology. While the parents try to decrease their children's dependency on them, what they really end up doing is transferring their power to a machine. Therefore, whoever controls the machine holds the power. Technology leads to the demise of man in two separate ways in this story; one being the death of the parents, and the other being the dehumanization of the children.…
