Ben witnesses many lynchings and, after learning too much, is captured and hung but survives. He is later attacked by a gang of white men but fights them off and has them arrested. The climax is the trial of the attackers, which is lost due to the all-white jury. Ben completes his assignment and returns to the White House to be congratulated by the president.
Elements of a short story
This document outlines the key elements of a short story, including characters (protagonist, antagonist, flat and round characters), plot (exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, resolution), conflict (man vs. man, man vs. nature, man vs. society, man vs. supernatural being, man vs. himself), setting, theme, and point of view (first person, omniscient). It provides definitions and brief explanations of these common components that make up the structure and narrative of a short story.
Todorov, Propp & Levi Strauss narrative theories
The document discusses three classic narrative theories:
1. Todorov's narrative structure suggests stories follow five stages: equilibrium, disruption, recognition, attempt to repair, new equilibrium.
2. Propp identified 8 character types (hero, villain, donor, etc.) and 31 narrative functions (prohibition, punishment, etc.) that move stories along.
3. Levi-Strauss argued binary oppositions (good/evil, men/women, etc.) are key to narrative meaning and stories can only end by resolving conflicts between oppositions.
The war within
The document outlines a film about the friendship between two boys, Michael and Zain, and how it is impacted by the events of 9/11. The film follows Todorov's narrative theory, starting with the boys' equilibrium that is disrupted by 9/11. This leads to Michael having to choose between remaining loyal to his Caucasian friends or staying with Zain, and ultimately realizing his loyalty lies with Zain. It explores themes of tolerance versus intolerance and how the attacks affected young people. Locations for the film include a house, classrooms, corridors, and a park.

1) Setting provides the time, location, weather, social context and mood of a story. Conflict is essential to the plot and can include man vs. man, circumstances, society or oneself.
2) Characters are usually few, with one central protagonist and an antagonist opposing them. Characters are developed through their appearance, words, actions, and how others see them.

By the waters of babylon
The document describes a society that has regressed from a previously advanced technological state to a more primitive one, relying on superstition, magic, and tribal clans rather than logic and science. Technology is no longer used and medicine is now considered magic. The people have developed myths explaining the remnants of the old civilization as the work of "gods." The setting has been divided into territories belonging to different clans, with some areas forbidden due to association with the old ruins.
Symbols
Symbolism is when an author uses objects or references to represent deeper meanings beyond their literal sense. Symbols can enhance themes, ideas, or characters. Common symbolic archetypes include light representing hope and darkness representing mystery or despair. Seasons can also symbolize different parts of life, such as spring representing renewal and winter representing ending. In the Harry Potter series, snakes often symbolize evil, seen in the serpent symbol of the Slytherin House.
Politics and satire
This document discusses the characteristics and purpose of political satire. It notes that satire has long been used as a tool for political criticism by exposing foolishness and vice in order to enact reform.

Their satire distills political topics down to their most amusing elements in order to engage audiences on important discussions and societal issues.
Words the building blocks of poetry
Words are the building blocks of poetry that create rhythm, rhyme, and form. Poets use words to express thoughts, objects, actions, and emotions through their denotations and connotations. The poem "The Lamb" by William Blake uses repetition and soft descriptive words like "tender" and "mild" to portray God as a nurturing creator.

The terms are often confused even by professionals, so it is important to understand that when noting "tone words" from books, one is actually identifying words that contribute to the overall mood.

Tone and mood are different literary elements that describe attitudes and atmospheres. Tone refers to the author's attitude toward the subject matter and is revealed through word choice. It can be positive, negative, or neutral. Mood describes the overall feeling or atmosphere created by details in the writing. It is how the reader feels in response to those details. While tone is about the perspective of the author, mood is about the environment or experience conveyed and how it impacts the audience emotionally. Identifying both tone and mood involves using descriptive adjectives to articulate the intended feelings.

Cultural Studies
When talking about literature most of the times we think in works like The Divine Comedy, or Don Quixote (Gardner, 170). We look for a good plot containing conflict, complications, rising actions, climax and falling action. Further, we expect to find at least a protagonist and an antagonist. Finally, we expect a thorough description of the setting. We then analyze or criticize the work using all these components. But what happens if a text doesn’t have all these components? Cultural critics try to broaden the canon by analyzing all texts; rather than, only traditional literary objects (Gardner, 171).
Tiny Giants: 101 Stories Under 101Words by Jason Sinclair Long contain one hundred one mini stories. These stories don’t have the traditional literary objects we are used to find in a story. In fact, at first some of them might feel as if they were taken from another, more traditional story. One of the stories is titled The Innocent Man and following the title the story is only composed by one sentence. This sentence reads “Cornered, he lashed out, becoming the monster for which they searched.” (Long, 78). And even if we cannot find many of the traditional literary objects like climax or even a setting, we can interpret so much of this powerful sentence.
To start with the title The Innocent Man prepare us to expect the story to be about a man that is facing some kind of conflict. It can be that he committed a crime, or that he is being accused of something he didn’t do, or that he is feeling guilty of something. Then, the first word “Cornered” denotes that he is feeling trapped. Following “he lashes out” from here we now know that he is responding to the feeling of being trapped. Finally “becoming the monster for which they searched.” This last part explains so much. We see how this man starting being innocent, but as he felt cornered there was nothing else for him to do but to become what everyone else thought of him.
Long´s words are so powerful because in just one sentence there is so much meaning. Further, many people can relate to them. No one is born guilty, or as monster, but sometimes life doesn’t give you any choice but to become one. There is nothing different in the genes of a criminal; in fact, the only difference is the situations that he had to face.

Narrative structure
This short story uses flashbacks and foreshadowing to tell a story that begins in the middle, after the main events have already occurred. It employs flashbacks to fill in details from before and foreshadowing to hint at events still to come. The unconventional structure presents the narrative out of chronological order.
By the waters of babylon
The document describes a society that has regressed from a previously advanced technological state to a more primitive one, relying on superstition, magic, and tribal clans rather than logic and science. Technology is no longer used and medicine is now considered magic. The people have developed myths explaining the remnants of the old civilization as the work of "gods." The setting has been divided into territories belonging to different clans, with some areas forbidden due to association with the former advanced society.
Paradox
A paradox is a statement that seems absurd or self-contradictory but may turn out to be true, such as saying a restaurant is crowded so no one goes there. At its core, a paradox contains two statements that are both true but cannot be true at the same time. One example is someone claiming to be a compulsive liar, which is paradoxical because it contradicts itself.
Drama and Death of a Salesman
This document discusses different types of characters that may appear in stories including protagonists who are the main characters, antagonists who oppose the protagonists, characters who change and develop over the course of the story or remain the same, and characters who are realistic or symbolic representations. It also mentions supporting characters that help develop other characters or provide commentary.
Drama and Death of a Salesman
This document provides an overview of key concepts in drama and tragedy. It discusses how drama focuses on major characters facing challenges and interacting with other characters. It defines different types of characters such as protagonists and antagonists. While drama does not show characters' full life stories, it brings out intense conflicts. Tragedy is a type of drama where the main character suffers a loss but gains insight. Tragedies often involve a character flaw called hubris that leads to destructive actions, and feature catharsis, or a purging of emotions. They depict a reversal of fortune, a moment of recognition, and suffering through events like peripeteia, anagnorisis and pathos.
Cause and-effect-powerpoint
This document discusses cause and effect relationships. It defines cause as why something happened and effect as the result of what happened. Causes always lead to effects, and effects always have causes. The cause answers the question "why?" and occurs first, while the effect answers the questions "what happened?" and "what was the result?". Sometimes the cause and effect relationship is not directly stated and must be inferred from clues. Effects can also lead to further effects in a chain reaction. The plot of the story "A Sound of Thunder" is based on a theoretical cause-effect chain where a time traveler stepping on a butterfly in the past ultimately alters modern civilization.
The theory and practice of oligarchical collectivism in 1984
The book Winston is reading, titled "The Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism" was supposedly written by Emmanuel Goldstein, a former high-ranking party member who betrayed the party. The book explains key aspects of the party's rule over Oceania, including its use of perpetual war to control the population, maintain power, and destroy resources that could otherwise raise living standards. It asserts that the three superstates of Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia are essentially the same totalitarian society and engage in limited warfare to prevent any from gaining control while also keeping their own populations controlled. The party relies on "doublethink" and contradictions to retain power indefinitely through fear and ignorance.
Newspeak
The document discusses Newspeak, the official language of Oceania in George Orwell's novel 1984. Newspeak aims to restrict freedom of thought by limiting vocabulary related to ideas such as freedom and rebellion. It also introduces concepts like "doublethink" where contradictory beliefs can be held simultaneously. The goal is for Newspeak to eventually replace Oldspeak, eliminating undesirable concepts that do not conform to the totalitarian regime. Euphemistic terms are constructed to disguise the actual meaning of words and concepts. Thinking unapproved thoughts is considered "crimethink" and can result in vaporization.
Science fiction
Science fiction has been told since before writing was invented, with one of the earliest writers being Lucian of Samosata in the 1st century BC. Modern science fiction began to take shape in the 19th century. Science fiction is loosely defined as fiction dealing with the impact of science and technology on the world, sometimes using real technology and sometimes imagined. Common themes include using technology for disaster and expressing feelings about cultural changes from advances. For a story to be considered science fiction it generally needs to include at least three elements such as science, technology, other places, or catastrophes.
Sonnet
The document discusses different types of sonnets - Italian/Petrarchan, Shakespearean, and Spenserian. A sonnet is 14 lines with a specific rhyme scheme (abab cdcd efef gg). In Shakespearean sonnets, the volta or turn in the argument occurs before the final couplet which offers a summary or new perspective. Sonnets develop a sequence of ideas or metaphors and each quatrain should be read like a separate paragraph. The document provides two examples of sonnets with their rhyme schemes and lines.
Allusions in FFA
Charlie gained knowledge through experimental brain surgery, analogous to Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit. Like them, Charlie now understands both good and evil, and relations, though this knowledge has made him miserable and unable to return to his innocent former life. The surgery represents the modern snake that tempted Charlie to gain this knowledge through unnatural means.
What is intelligence
The document discusses IQ tests and their history. It notes that the first IQ test was called the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, published in 1916. It used a single IQ score calculated by dividing a test-taker's mental age by their chronological age. The Stanford-Binet remains a popular assessment tool today after many revisions. IQ testing aims to assess human performance and intelligence through comparing individuals.
Why write 1984
George Orwell wrote 1984 in 1949, influenced by several events of the early 20th century. Totalitarian dictators like Stalin who ruled through terror and executed millions contributed to Orwell's dystopian vision of the future. He was concerned about privacy issues like government surveillance, corporations collecting consumer data, and employers monitoring employees. Orwell depicted extreme forms of psychological manipulation and physical control by the ruling party in 1984 to gain absolute power, including constant reminders of being watched, endless propaganda, rewriting history, and torture.
Foreshadowing
Foreshadowing is a literary device that provides hints or clues about future events in a story. It often appears at the beginning of a story or chapter to help readers develop expectations of what is to come. Any element of a story, such as events, actions, titles, or chapter names can act as foreshadowing by hinting at future plot developments and creating suspense for readers.
Allusions
This document defines an allusion as a reference within a work to something famous outside of it, such as a person, place, event, story, or work of art. It explains that allusions help readers understand new information by connecting it to something they are already familiar with. The document provides several examples of allusions in movies, books, and advertisements to famous works like The Shining, Of Mice and Men, and Greek mythology. It notes that the most commonly alluded to works are the Bible, Shakespeare, and Greek/Roman mythology.
Mood
Mood refers to the overall atmosphere created in a piece of writing through descriptive words. Identifying the mood depends on knowing words that describe how a scene or passage makes the reader feel. Mood is established by settings, characters, and their actions and describes an environment, while tone refers to a person's attitude. Examples of mood include relaxed, cozy, and romantic.
The stranger part ii
Meursault is on trial for murder. He does not believe in religious concepts like God or an afterlife. The magistrate questions Meursault about his lack of beliefs and gets upset, shouting that everyone must believe in God or their life has no meaning. Meursault is indifferent to social structures like marriage that other people find meaningful. In prison, he is restricted by rules enforcing social hierarchies like favoring married relationships over unmarried ones. At the end, Meursault reflects that life is meaningless but death is inevitable, so one must accept life as it is rather than seeking meaning elsewhere.
Fight Club
The document discusses the themes of meaninglessness and absurdity in the movie Fight Club. It notes that the main character starts an illegal fight club because he is so bored with his meaningless life. Once he believes life has no meaning or purpose, he feels free to do whatever he wants. The document then poses a series of questions about the meaning of life and our existence and asks how the main character of Fight Club would answer them based on his nihilistic worldview. It concludes by asking the reader to compare the main character of Fight Club to the protagonist in The Stranger in terms of their views of life and actions.
The stranger Part 1
The document summarizes key aspects of Albert Camus' novel The Stranger. It discusses Camus' philosophy of the absurd and examines themes like indifference, emotional detachment, and the lack of inherent meaning in the world through analysis of characters like Meursault and Salamano. It also analyzes Meursault's interactions with Marie and his boss to show how his perspective clashes with societal expectations around love, marriage, and ambition.
Form
This poem is written in the form of a letter from one friend to another describing his experiences in the afterlife. He explains that in the afterlife, imagination and willpower are unconstrained - he can imagine anything and it instantly becomes reality, such as writing a letter in an instant. He describes meeting historical figures who are making beautiful music, and poems floating everywhere. He emphasizes that in the afterlife, one can do anything they want without limits.
