    Monster In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein

    The lens through which readers encounter monsters is often a skewed one. This lens could be that of the author, who seeks to embody a monster as a horrific, non-human entity that will cause havoc in an area. Similarly, this lens could be that of a character in a piece, one who witnesses the monster’s wrath and destruction firsthand and hopes to avoid the cruel savage being. Monster narratives rarely unfold from the perceptive of the monster, and, as such, audiences must rely on other sources as to the monster’s course of action. Such voices can carry a bias with them. As in the case of the author, the omniscient perspective provides descriptions of the monster without directly interacting the monster. This perspective could easily fail to report…

    Telly's Creatures From The Black Phenomenon

    As Telly walked to the Cafeteria from his English class, he wondered what he had for lunch today; he opened his backpack and realized that he had left his lunch at home! He didn’t have any money for the school lunch and wouldn’t dare to try and ask the kids on the dark, far-end of the cafeteria for anything. As Telly looked over at the creatures, they instantly reminded him of the story-book characters from “Creatures from the black lagoon!” but without them turning out to be nice in the end. Avery,one of his best friend, offered to share his lunch with him though. Telly was really hungry and immediately went to wolfing down his half of the sandwich. Once he finished, he felt…weird.…

    Imagine being a demigod and able to heal from water. That is what Percy Jackson can do in The Sea of Monsters. They obtained their demigod powers from their god or goddess parent.

    Lighting Thief

    Instead of simply being gifted with magic, Percy is the son of a Greek God. His friends aren’t mere mortals with spell books. They are Annabeth, the daughter of Athena, and Grover, a satyr. The section of school that hates him isn’t the old home of the series’ big evil, but the most competitive section of students, the children of the God of War, Ares. And instead of Quidditch, Percy finds himself participating in a chariot race. The world of The Lightning Thief brings Greek mythology into the modern world. Who knew that Mount Olympus was located on floor 1000 of the Empire State Building? Or that the Greek gods are responsible for the spread of Western civilization? Unbeknownst to us, we walk among monsters who scour the Earth hoping to find the children of Gods before the Gods do in order to eliminate their competition.…

    Percy's 'The Loss Of The Creature'

    Percy's 'The Loss Of The Creature'

    In “The Loss of the Creature,” Percy focuses on how one perceives something before actually witnessing it based on the opinions of others. The value of the place or idea is already preconceived due to the fact that we are so caught up in time that we overlook the entire experience as a whole. Or being that we are so focused on the option on an object from someone else, we miss the whole concept or what it’s true meaning or “beauty” as Percy state’s is. We lose the ability to make our own decisions because we base them off of someone else’s viewpoints. Using an example of a movie that I experienced shows Percy’s point.…

    The Flaws of the Creature: a Critique on Walker Percy

    The Flaws of the Creature: a Critique on Walker Percy

    In his essay, "The Loss of the Creature," Walker Percy claims that there are two types of "students:" "privileged" and "unprivileged knowers." However, Percy labels his readers by what he feels is appropriate. According to David Bartholomae and Anthony Petrosky in the introduction to Ways of Reading, it is up to us, the readers, to determine what Percy might mean when he uses key terms and phrases in his essay. Bartholomae and Petrosky believe that "The meaning is forged from reading the essay, to be sure, but it is determined by your account of what Percy might mean when he talks about ‘symbolic packages' or a ‘loss of sovereignty' (8)." Yet Percy only believes in his ideas because of his elitist point of view and feels as though he is the "privileged knower" who knows how to correctly experience life. I mostly disagree with what Percy says in his essay because he makes several valid arguments, but ultimately contradicts and shoots his own ideas down. I believe that I am an "unprivileged" knower, yet I still have the ability to see things for what they truly are (or as Percy would say, I have not lost my "sovereignty"). My argument is that sovereignty is possible and that it does not require an "expert" like Walker Percy to guide an "unprivileged knower." And I am confident that we, the readers, believe that he is unable to speak for all of us. Moreover, Bartholomae and Petrosky offer readers a way to read Percy, which will allow their own interpretation to be correct and "not be exactly what Percy said" (8). We should all have our own "experiential, emotional sovereignty" to determine what an authentic experience truly is.…
