1807. 16506 A Literary Analysis of The Time Machine by H.G. Wells This paper will seek to understand the literary merits of H.G. Wells in his classic novel The Time Machine. By analyzing implied setting, implied meaning, figurative language, and the plot of the tale, we can see why Wells shatters ideological fairy tales about escaping through time in the horrible lessons the Time Machines teaches the Time Traveler.

1808. 16510 Chance, Fate, and Choice In this paper we will examine and compare the way conflict arises in Alexander Pushkin?s ?The Queen of Spades? and in.?Oedipus The King.? by Sophocles. By understanding and comparing these two great works of fiction, we hope to come to an understanding of how fate and freewill intersect, and that maybe they are the same thing. As a way to support this thesis, we will try and answerer the following questions: 1. Do the protagonists make their own trouble, or has some supernatural force set them up? 2. Is society at fault, or is it an internal force, even an unconscious one, that leads him or her into trouble? 3. Do external events, such as chance or fate, determine one's life, or can one willfully choose and determine one's own destiny.

1809. 16514 Restoring Fractured Gender Order: A Brief study of gender roles in the Brothers? Grimm ?Cinderella? and ?Briar-Rose? and The Arabian Nights? tale of Shahriyar and S This 17-page graduate paper considers the roles of women in four specific tales: the Grimm versions of ?Cinderella? and ?Briar-Rose? and The Arabian Nights? tale of Shahriyar and Shahrazad and ?The Tale of the Ensorceled Prince?. This essay considers the ways in which gender roles in the four narratives can be used to comment on gender ideals in the societies which produced the narratives. Beginning witha brief textual history of each book, the essay notes that the complex literary histories of each book have made gleaning precise historical or social facts from either text difficult. However, the essay posits that by juxtaposing tales, and noting similar thematic patterns, one can suggest some of the key concerns of the societies which produced the tales. This essay then surmises that although similarities exist between the four tales, The Arabian Nights? tales valorize male community, and suggest that women are inherently destructive forces which must be controlled. At the same time, the women in these texts have more agency than the women in the Grimm brothers? fairy tales. In both ?Cinderella? and ?Briar-Rose? women in female communities are rewarded for being passive and feminine, and punished for attempting to seize any power or agency. Women are rewarded by male rescuers and by supernatural forces, and are thus encouraged to endure injustice patiently. In all four stories, the emphasis on proper gender roles and on punishment suggests that women were seen as suspect, and gender roles were seen as fluid enough to threaten the societies and families which were based upon them.

1810. 16522 Poetry Comparison This four-page undergraduate paper analyzes the poems, ?My Papa?s Waltz? by Simon J. Ortiz and ?My Father?s Song? by Theodore Roethke. In his comparative analysis, the author notes that these poems are similar in a number of ways but also different, especially in the characterizations of the two fathers. One is sensitive and gentle, while the other is physical, boisterous in his affection, and seems to only be able to express his love for his son when he is under the influence of alcohol. The poems themselves differ in rhyme scheme but are thematically alike. Pages: 4 Bibliography: 2 source(s) listed Filename: 16522 Ortiz and Roethke.doc Price: US$35.80

1811. 16531 Transcending Echo: Speech Making in Ralph Ellison?s Invisible Man This 15-page postgraduate essay examines the success of speech making in Ralph Ellison?s Invisible Man. Beginning with the suggestion that Ellison?s entire novel is about finding a voice, or becoming a speech maker, this essay attempts to define speech making broadly. Examining the significance of speech in relation to the invisibility and blackness, this essay suggests that the narrator if Ellison?s text becomes an effective speech maker as he moves from a repetitive and traditional form of speech to speech forms which are more unorthodox, more inclusive, and more focussed on the ?I? of the narrator. The narrator uses music, technology, and ideas he gleans from hearing others speak to develop his own voice. For the narrator, the consequences of speech are significant, as it is through speech that he uncovers selfhood and agency.

1812. 16538 The Role of Gender in Science Fiction as Applied in the Television Show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer The feminine depiction in much of science fiction is quite often heroic. While many genres depict the strong, capable, aggressive woman as being opposed to society and social norms, the realm of science fiction puts these women in the fore and gives us heroes who can hold their own against any men of traditional dramatic literature. This is certainly the case with the heroine, Buffy Summers. Traditional male heroic roles are found in job-based depictions ? the heroic soldier/policeman/fireman/teacher/etc is a standard. These characters follow the traditional path of the heroic journey ? which is the case of Buffy. Pages: 3 Bibliography: 0 source(s) listed Filename: 16538 Gender Science Fiction.doc Price: US$26.85

1813. 16549 An Analysis of Unity: Setting, Point of View, and Ending in Alice Walker?s Everyday Use This paper will seek to understand how seting, point of view, and ending unite in Everyday Use by Alice Walker. In this manner, we can see how the main charcters deal with ordinary items in Mama's house, which Dee seeks to use as relics in her modern way of living. By using these settings to make this point, we can see a clash between old and new African American lifestyles.
