"The Tempest" And "Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone": Magic
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The element of magic within the literary boundaries of Shakespeare's The Tempest and J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is used to illustrate the manner by which social dictates can either condemn or support one's individualism. Clearly, Prospero was cast out as a nonmember of his community after he honed in upon his special magical abilities, forcing him to employ those very same talents as a means by which to enact revenge against his wrongdoers. As such, the image of magic does not carry with it a positive connotation whatsoever. Harry Potter's adventures, on the other hand, presents magic in an
enlightening and intriguing fashion that encourages the reader to enlist imaginative thought in order to further ignite the wondrous magical ingredients that Rowling's tale brings forth. No additional sources cited.

"The Tortilla Curtain" And "The Things They Carried" � Post Modern Critical Theory
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. The theme that links Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried and T. Coraghessan Boyle's The Tortilla Curtain is the underlying political and social implications that ultimately impose themselves upon unsuspecting people. In O'Brien's (1999) case, the stench of war is thrust upon his protagonists, enveloping them like the plague to such an extent that the only thing keeping them sane is the camaraderie they develop. For Boyle (1996), the wholly divergent story line of two California couples � one wealthy suburbanites, the other Mexican immigrants � smacks of the injustice of social class distinction so readily attacked by Marxist theory. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
