[ send me this paper ]
9 pages in length. Family Installments is often seen as humorous and lighthearted in the way in which its author, Edward Rivera, approaches his otherwise painful subject matter. There is however, another side of his work that exerts itself just as defiantly: dealing with racial and cultural conflict between human beings. No additional sources cited.

Esquivel & Achebe/A Comparison
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that argues that Laura Esquivel (Like Water for Chocolate, 1994) and Chinua Achebe (Things Fall Apart, 1994) both create characters who are incredibly strong-willed and also invested within their cultures in such a way that it narrows their focus toward other considerations. In other words, Esquivel's Mama Elena and Achebe's Okonkwo suffer their eventual fates due to their obsessive adherence to cultural paradigms, which they follow to the exclusion of all else. This rigid stance causes both characters to be primarily motivated by fear. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Esteban Echeverria/The Slaughter House
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page paper that discusses the use of language in Esteban Echeverria’s “The Slaughter House,” which portrays the political situation in Argentina under the rule of Manuel de Rosas, a “Federalist war hero” (Webb). In describing the effect of Rosas’ rule, Echeverria creates an extended metaphor, a Slaughter House, located “’in the southern part of Buenos Aires, on a huge lot’” (Echeverria cited by Webb). Examination of the literary devices employed by Echeverria demonstrates the way in which he uses this primary metaphor to create an allegory that dramatized the conflict between civilization and barbarism that characterized nineteenth century Argentina. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Federico Garcia Lorca/Play Trilogy
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page research paper/essay that discusses the Federico Garcia Lorca’s play trilogy. The editors of the New England Review add a biographical note to their publication of Federico Garcia Lorca’s poem “Siguiriya’s Way,” which identifies Lorca as one of the greatest poets and dramatists of modern Spain (Lorca, 2005, p. 96). This poem mixes sensuality with the ever-present threat of violence, which is as theme that is prominent in Lorca’s work. Three of Lorca’s best-known plays are his trilogy: “Blood Wedding,” “Yerma,” and “The House of Bernarda Alba.” Examination of these plays demonstrates how Lorca uses the elements of melodrama to represent the presence of overwhelming sexual desire within the context of the negotiated power. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
