The Bell Jar, by Sylvia Path and Lucy, by Jamaica Kincaid
Women haven't always had the freedom that they have today. Women were supposed to live a certain life even though sometimes they didn't want to.
They had to tend to their husbands at all time, stay home and do housework while still taking care of their children or being pregnant. Women were
abused physically, emotionally, and psychologically. Although women were perceived to act and present themselves in a certain way, some young
women went against the cult of the true woman hood not only to be different, but to escape he physical, emotional, and psychological abuse that they
will or have encountered. In novels, The Bell Jar, by Sylvia Path and Lucy, by Jamaica Kincaid both young women have the similarity to rebel against
the cult of true ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
While at home, Esther becomes into a deep depression when thinking about her experience in New York. She doesn't want to read, write, or sleep
and she stops bathing herself. Her mother sends her to see Dr. Gordon who is her first psychiatrist whom she doesn't like and doesn't trust. He is
the man with a good looking family, and to Esther he is conceited. He doesn't help Esther, but only hurts her more. He prescribes her with shock
treatment. After this horrifying experience, she decides to kill herself. She tries to slit her wrists, but can only bring herself to slicing her calf. She
tries to hang herself but can't find a place to tie the rope, she tries to drown herself at the beach, but cannot keep herself under water, and then she
crawls into a space in the basement and takes a lot of sleeping pills. "Wherever I sat–on the deck of a ship or at a street cafГ© in Paris or Bangkok–I
would be sitting under the same glass bell jar, stewing in my own sour air." (Plath pg. 117) This quote shows how she felt trapped in the bell jar, and
her suicidal urges began. She awakes in the hospital to find that her attempt at suicide wasn't successful. She is sent to another psychological ward
where she still wants to end her life. Esther becomes very paranoid and uncooperative. She gets moves to a private hospital paid for by Philomena

A Summary Of Prisons
***
The unattractive, and neglected urban area of Budapest, where she lived left her feeling cheated and cast aside, after the work she had done for the
AVH. It was filled with dingy workers' hostels reeking of all types of inhuman odors, and was home for Ava, along with the other girls plucked from
villages by the Captain. All of them, now held captive by strong–armed men, backed by the Hungarian government.
Each one had been taken from quiet villages to service and discredit the Hungarian business elite. All held captive under the watchful eye of a woman
as hard and solid as bedrock. A hard–working matron, hell bent on keeping the girls imprisoned, hopeless and incapable of uttering even the most
innocent comments and protected ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The flat she shared was in the middle of a block, in the slum infested ethnic area where the air often smelled like a graveyard. Nationalized at the end
of the 1940s, the brick flats were divided into single rooms that Ava shared with eight other girls. Due to the lack of privacy and proximity to one
another, her roommates intruded into each other's lives; which often turned into violent physical altercations. After each incident, one the girls ran to
the matron and lied to win favor with the woman.

Looking over the hills, Ava observed the lightening flickering in the distance. But, something was odd. The lightening was more of a volatile corrosive
shade. A flicker of deep red. And then, it turned bright red and orange.
A low rumble, almost as if she was hearing symphonic drums, caught her attention. But, the rumble seemed steadier. It turned into sharper sounds.
Sounds of explosions. And a rapidly moving rise in pressure. There was another low rumble. Then, quiet. Followed by a wave of pressure and
sharper sounds of explosions. Then, a corrosive sulfide color and smell. She had a sense, a feeling maybe, of disbelief until the dust of the rubble
powdered the air and her.
She felt like she had gotten hit by a moving vehicle. Thrown into the side of the building, she felt as if someone had pulled her inside of a clothes
dryer, her body tossing around like a load of clothes before she felt another explosion.

The Bell Jar By Sylvia Plath And The Catcher Of The Rye
People often inquire who they are; when asked a question such as this one, they hesitate. They consider every possible answer, despite their response
being so obvious. A person is made up of three major parts– their personality, the cultures that mold their personality, and their dreams. These three
components are analyzed within the novels, The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath and the Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. These themes contribute to the
evolution and demolition of characters, leading to events that create thrill within the two.
In the novel, The Bell Jar, the prime character, Esther Greenwood, struggles to handle life in her own skin. She feels trapped in a glass bell jar
with no escape because of her incapability to comprehend herself. For example, in chapter one Plath states, "'My name 's Elly Higginbottom,' I
said. 'I come from Chicago.' After that I felt safer. I didn 't want anything I said or did that night to be associated with me and my real name and
coming from Boston" (Plath 11). In this quote, Esther alters her life story demonstrating her lost sight of her true identity. In addition, Greenwood
talks about losing control over her life as a wicked cloud rolls in, shadowing her every move. To further explain, Greenwood voices, "Only I wasn 't
steering anything, not even myself. I just bumped from my hotel to work and to parties and from parties to my hotel and back to work like a numb
trolleybus. I guess I should have been excited the way most of the other

The blocks from Broadway to Green were too steep for electric cars to ascend and descend unaided; the counterbalance solved the problem.
Passengers would transfer from double truck electric cars at the top of the hill to a single truck car attached to the cable by a plow. When the car
reached the bottom of the hill, it released the plow and ran on to Bay Street. The counterbalance was the only United Railroads line which directly
reached the 1915 Panama Pacific Exposition, held at the Marina. The 19–Polk came within a block of the eastern entrance. URR had all the single
truck cars rebuilt as Pay as You Enter (PAYE) cars with multiple unit (MU) capability. The cars ran as trains during the Exposition due to the heavy
passenger loads. After the URR had become the Market Street Railway, the line was extended to Marina Boulevard on August 29, 1925. MSRy
needed to store a weighted dummy car at the Turk and Fillmore car house so there would be a counterbalance car for the last run of the night. A
regular 22 Fillmore car towed it out to the top of the hill. The attendant attached it to the cable, and it counterbalanced the last car of the night up the
hill. The counterbalance car stayed in the middle of the intersection of Fillmore and Green, marked with a red lantern, all night. Automobiles often ran
into it. In the morning, it counterbalanced the first car coming down. Then a regular 22 Fillmore car towed it back to the

Sylvia Plath 's The Bell Jar
Many poets, writers, and artists suffer with the monsters of mental illness, however, Sylvia Plath may be one of the most iconic. Many believe living
with debilitating mental illness can aid in creativity. Throughout Sylvia's short life, she produced brilliant yet immensely troubled writing. Sylvia
Plath's struggle with both Bipolar Disorder and Depression is communicated within her writing through her use of creativity, visceral language, and
emotional rawness. Her inner turmoil can be interpreted in her brilliant and vehemence evoking poetry as well as her novel, The Bell Jar. Although in
Plath's time she was considered tortured, she is held in the highest esteem in today's literary world. Linda Wagner–Martin, a professor of English at
Michigan State University, wrote an enticing bibliography on Sylvia Plath and has published many works among modern literature as well as
women's literature. In her book she covered Sylvia's life from her first breath, to her last. Born in Boston Massachusetts on October 27, 1932 to Otto
and Aurelia Schober Plath, Sylvia Plath was weighing in at a healthy eight and a half pounds even though she was supposedly delivered three weeks
early. (Wagner–Martin 15). At a young age literature surrounded young Sylvia, or "Sivvy" as her mother called her. Her mother, Aurelia spent her
days making up stories for Sylvia while her father began going to school at Northwestern majoring in classical languages. In the spring of 1935
Aurelia gave birth to a

My High School Experience
The first day of school can be a little intimidating, especially if it is in a country where you do not know anyone. That's how my first day at
Columbia International College was (felt). However, my expectations of what I thought would be a solitary day, changed the moment I met Alex. Alex
is a friendly and charismatic guy from Hsinchu, Taiwan. He introduced me to his friends and showed me the school throughout the day. As time went
by, I fell in love with that high school and everyone in it. Looking back, one of the most cherished memories I have from high school is the one when
someone changed my high school experience with a simple hello.
As time went by, Alex and I became very good friends. He used to tell me stories about his family and his country traditions. For example, he used to
talk for hours about his memories from the Chinese temples that he used to visit, the night markets, the local cuisine and the island's great scenery.
From that moment on, I became very interested in Taiwanese culture. Whilst I have never been to Asia, I have always kept Taiwan at the top of my
bucket list. I would love to immerse into the culture to experience their lifestyle on my own.
My friendship with Alex encouraged me to study Mandarin. A language that I did not perfection, but it is still a goal of mine to improve. Taking into
consideration that it is the most spoken language in the world and that China has had a fast–growing economy over the last decades, learning Mandarin

Sylvia Plath's novel The Bell Jar is an anti–coming of age novel. Plath's novel focuses on Esther Greenwood a young college student on the cusp of
adulthood. At the beginning of The Bell Jar, Esther is a young girl and relatively innocent compared to the world she'll soon find herself in. Esther

Yet Buddy despite his actions and the sexual double standard is acting normally for the era, and is everything society tells Esther she should want.
Esther however does not want Buddy, as Buddy represents society's expectations of her, specifically domesticity and submission both of which
Esther rejects. This rejection culminates in Buddy's marriage proposal to Esther, which Esther of course rejects. Ultimately her rejection of Buddy

The Motorcycle Diaries By Che' Guevara
Significant discoveries often challenge an individual's perceptions and ideas. This fosters a unique lens of perspective which can lead to renewed and
intensely meaningful understandings of ourselves and the world around us.
Ernesto 'Che' Guevara's bildungsroman memoir 'The Motorcycle Diaries' (1995) details his travels through impoverished Latin America with comrade
Alberto Granado, which subsequently altered his perspective of the lower class proletariat. In the process accentuating that the catalyst for ideological
discoveries, is the exposure to different contexts. Likewise, in pondering upon his childhood tendency to wander from home, the protagonist in Philip

At the 'local flea market, which was not at all safe to do' the boys discover a man selling guns. This surprising experience morphs a jovial trip into a
dangerous encounter. The shift in tone in the poem metamorphic of the poet's growing knowledge of his isolation within a society and home of
poverty; 'no bathroom or running water', violence 'she will scold me later' and in which there is no place for his harmless childhood 'tendency to
wander'. This surprising and transformative understanding is heightened in the repetition of his 'crying mother set against the sunset. The symbolic
close–of–day, reveling with regrets, acts as a reminder of the child's captivity for the adult speaker. The finalstanza unmistakably portrays the
speaker's emotional discoveries as he acknowledges to not understanding 'back then' and 'how alienated one can be from the the greatest paradox of
all, a happy Soviet Childhood'. The reflective tone accentuates that through the process of reflection an individual can obtain a fresh and renewed
perception of the world. This consequently leads to emotional discoveries in a more mature perspective of his behaviour as a child, in coming to terms
that his 'tendency toward vagrancy' was 'not simply a diagnosis of otherness' or cultivated by 'Soviet psychiatrists', but stemmed in the 'alienation' he
experienced in his impoverished childhood, highlighting how through reflecting on past experiences serendipitous discoveries may be

Identity In The Bell Jar
In the 1963 Autobiographical novel, The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath is narrated by Esther Greenwood who questions her self–identity and sexual behavior.
The theme of the novel is explored more in depth when Esther realizes she feels constrained of being a woman that is expected to be a household
wife. The theme is shown how the expectations of the 1950s American society forms into sanity and madness . Straight into the first chapter, Plath
detaches Esther from society with her clinical diction seen when Esther describes New York to be "fake" as she constantly felt like a "numb
trolleybus" when all her life consisted of was hotels and parties. Plath's hyperbole, "I felt very still and very empty, the way the eye of a tornado must
feel,moving dully

The Bell Jar By Sylvia Plath
In the novel The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath the prime character, Esther Greenwood, struggles to handle life in her own skin. She feels as though she is
trapped in a glass bell jar with no escape because of her incapability to comprehend herself. For example, in chapter one Plath states, "'My name 's
Elly Higginbottom,' I said. 'I come from Chicago.' After that I felt safer. I didn 't want anything I said or did that night to be associated with me
and my real name and coming from Boston" (Plath 11). In this quote, Esther alters her life story demonstrating her lost sight of her true identity. In
addition, Greenwood talks about losing control over her life as a stormy cloud rolls in, shadowing her every move. To further explain, Greenwood
voices, "Only I wasn 't steering anything, not even myself. I just bumped from my hotel to work and to parties and from parties to my hotel and
back to work like a numb trolleybus. I guess I should have been excited the way most of the other girls were, but I couldn 't get myself to react. (I felt
very still and very empty, the way the eye of a tornado must feel, moving dully along in the middle of the surrounding hullabaloo.)" (Plath 2–3). This
citation exemplifies Greenwood's inability to grasp her life through her boredom with traditionally enjoyable activities. Greenwood has difficulty
steering her life in any direction because of she fails to discover her inner self.
In addition to the conflict with identity in The Bell Jar, the novel,

The 's Descent Into Depression And Madness
1.Many signs throughout the novel specify Esther's descent into depression and madness. Outside factors such as social pressures cause Esther's
descent into madness. Societal pressures to get married and be pure expedite Esther's descent into madness. The stages of this are specified at first
as Esther saying she feels "I just bumped from my hotel to work and to parties and from parties to my hotel and back to work like a numb
trolleybus." This feeling of being inexplicably unhappy and not having any motivation is the first stage of her descent into madness. This quickly
progresses to her feeling more depressed and not being able to partake in activities she usually enjoyed. She slowly loses the ability to read and
write which is a large step towards insanity. She fully descends into madness when she begins to have suicidal thoughts and actions, which she
eventually tries to act upon. Her descent into madness was inevitable because she is suffering from a mental condition that would have caused her
to go insane regardless, but her experiences and outside pressures drive her to madness more quickly. 2.The primary meaning of the bell jar in the
novel is the unspecified mental illness that plagues Esther. She feels trapped inside her mind and in turn this causes her to feel hopeless and isolated.
She says that no matter what she does she "...would be sitting under the same glass bell jar, stewing in my own soul air". The bell jar could also
symbolize the outside social

Depression In The Bell Jar Sylvia Plath
Numerous people suffer from depression at some point in their lives. Some cases are more temporary, while others last longer. Author Sylvia Plath,
who suffered from depression, wrote an autobiographical novel entitled The Bell Jar. In her novel, Plath uses a fictional character to walk her readers
through her personal experiences (Plath 1–244). She describes in details the character, setting, plot and theme (1–244). Esther Greenwood is the
protagonist in The Bell Jar. She is a young, college–aged girl who is an extremely talented writer (Plath 3). She is one of twelve lucky winners of a
fashion magazine contest (3). As a prize, Esther is given a one–month job and travels from Boston to New York to become a magazine editor (3). "We

Throughout the book, Esther struggles with insecurity(1–244). The first time this perception is perceived is when she and her friend are at a party with
two guys they first met (11). She introduces herself as a fake person because it makes her feel safer (11). "'My name's Elly Higginbottom,' I said. 'I
come from Chicago.' After that I felt safer. I didn't want anything I said or did that night to be associated with me and my real name and coming
from Boston" (11). Then, another example of this is displayed a few pages onward (18). Esther is inside the elevator of her hotel, when she sees her
reflection on the doors (18). "The doors folded shut like a noiseless accordion. Then my ears went funny, and I noticed a big, smudgy–eyed woman
staring idiotically into my face. It was only me, of course. I was appalled to see how wrinkled and used up I looked" (18). Later, Esther meets a
sailor and, again, introduces herself as Elly Higginbottom (132). A third occurrence where Esther displays insecurity is when she is at a hospital and
asks to see a mirror (174). After some prodding, her nurse reluctantly hands it to her (174). When she sees her reflection,

Bicycle Thieves : A Neorealist Movie Response
Bicycle Thieves Response Paper #10 Bicycle Thieves was directed by Vittorio De Sica and is considered to be a neorealist film. Neorealism in
films is a style based on material reality. Neorealism challenges traditional narrative structures of film. Throughout the film, one can see various
scenes where there are buses and trolleys, although the film is focused on relocating a stolen bicycle, which would save Antonio's job. Antonio, the
main character in the film, needs a bike to maintain his job. The buses and trolleys represent desperation in the film. Firstly, desperation along with
the trolleys and buses in Bicycle Thieves are associated because there is desperation to find jobs. At the start of the film, Antonio and other workers
are waiting for word from an employment agency about employment. Moreover, it was not just a couple of guys it was a mob of people. The mob of
men is desperate to feed their families and keep a roof over their heads. As Antonio walks toward the mob with theman calling out his name the bus
passes the mob of men waiting to hear news of job prospects. Antonio tells the man he does not have his bike at the moment and then other men
chime in saying they have a bike. This scene shows desperation because even though the men may not be skilled in this field they are willing to take
any job, especially, when there is a lack of jobs. The bus as present as the desperate mob awaited the news of potential jobs.Throughout the film, the bus

Not exactly sure what drug the Captain had given her, Ava crossed the room and stood in front of the sink. She was barely coherent, swooping up a
soft, velvety handful of water and staring at the blue and violet crystal droplets. She splashed them against her hot face, amazed and unblinking and
thoughtful about how round the droplets were. Mesmerized as they formed into bubbles – growing, growing, growing, growing – bubbles that grew

"Surely you must have a sense of how Hungarians today view its Jewish citizens, no?" Ever the courtesan, Ava smiled a wicked and tempting smile.
"So, tell me, Herr MihГЎly... then, how is it that you prefer Jewish woman for sex?" He whispered in her ear. "Because I like naughty, delicious
whores." And with that he bid the waiter to their table, paid the bill and led her upstairs to his hotel room. He lived in a one bedroom flat on the
ground floor of an old house overlooking the Danube, on the VГЎr with his wife. Educated as a historian, he was a man known to carry on with Jewish
prostitutes, despite his connections to the wartime Nazi Arrow Cross regime and subsequent connections resisting the Communists. However, the
AVH had him under surveillance, because he had been banned as too unsympathetic to the Horthy regime. In fact, some of his books were fiercely
critical of Soviet Communism. He was also known to have a hand in coding messages to be handed to foreign diplomats when they traveled to
Hungary. And tonight, he had met with a British Diplomat, so they were sure his briefcase contained some coded messages. Ava's mind now

This integral bus design implies that you can build a bus as a whole with a frame of pipes, so you do not need truck chasses anymore. An advantage
which was combined with the integral bus design is the standardization of production. Standardization of production makes it easier to coordinate the

production processes. The multiplex system increased savings with respect to the wiring systems in buses and the electronic trolleybus has
environmental advantages in comparison with the standard buses.
Innovation is very important for InnoBus; it can be seen as one of the main pillars where their strategy is based on.
Specialty: electronic trolley bus
The focus of InnoBus is on public transport within cities, that they try to distinguish themselves from the competition with the development of the
electronic trolleybus creates a competitive advantage. As stated above, the trolleybus has environmental advantages and Innobus can not have problems
with new acts in America concerning the limitation of engine emission because there simply is no engine emission. Moreover, it is very likely that if
the American government wants to stimulate environmental friendly products, Innobus will benefit from subsidies in the future.

high–capacity railcar) built by the Canadian company Bombardier for service in France. This has dual mode (diesel and electric motors) and dual
voltage capabilities (1500 and 25000 V) allowing it to be used on many different rail systems.[7] The locomotive has been on trials in Rotterdam,
the Netherlands with Railfeeding, a Genesse and Wyoming company. China The First Hybrid Evaluating prototype locomotive was designed and
contracted by rail research center MATRAI in 1999 and the sample was ready in 2000. It was a G12 locomotive that was converted to hybrid by
using a 200KW diesel generator and batteries and also was equipped with 4 AC traction motors (out of 4) retrofited in the cover of the DC traction
motors. Japan The first operational prototype of a hybrid train engine with significant energy storage and energy regeneration capability was
introduced in Japan as the KiHa E200. It utilizes battery packs of lithium ion batteries mounted on the roof to store recovered energy.[8] North
America In the U.S., General Electric introduced a prototype railroad engine with their "Ecomagination" technology in 2007. They store energy in a
large set of sodium nickel chloride (Na–NiCl2) batteries to capture and store energy normally dissipated during dynamic braking or coasting downhill.

Bell Jar Disconnection
It is said that people cannot truly know themselves, but must rely on reflections in mirrors, photographs, and other people in their lives. Unable to see
themselves as others see them, people often get confused and end up detaching themselves from reality. Author Sylvia Plath was a bright, young
woman with an interest in poetry and writing. However, after the death of her father, she developed neurosis and attempted suicide for the first time
using sleeping pills, but was unsuccessful. She uses her depression and suicidal tendencies as a foundation for her novel, published two weeks before
her successful suicide. The Bell Jar highlights the concept of detachment through the main character, Esther, who feels a disconnection from herself.
As she struggles to recognize herself and find a path for her future, she slowly descends into madness. Sylvia Plath in The Bell Jar creates the motifs of
mirrors and magazines to convey the idea that individuals often have difficulty accepting themselves.
Quite often, magazines glamorize real life and make reality distant from fact. This is especially true throughout The Bell Jar, starting as early as page 2
where the main character explains a ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Especially through the disease neurosis, which Esther had, she never connected her mirror image to her inner image, even when she seems to look
"normal:" "Then my ears went funny, and I noticed a big, smudgy–eyed Chinese woman staring idiotically into my face. It was only me, of course, I
was appalled to see how wrinkled and used up I looked" (Plath 18). Esther doesn't immediately recognize herself in an elevator reflection, which
startles her and causes her to believe she is not alone in the elevator. Later in the novel, after her signs of depression have began to emerge, she starts to
cry during a magazine photoshoot. Once she stops crying and attempts to apply makeup to her fatigued

If Innobus finds a new market their sales will increase and improve their financial position.
Creating more equity
An opportunity for creating more equity is by attracting another company to do business with them. Innobus can also issue more shares and apply for
an extra bank loan (which they already do).
Improve SCM
Improving their supply chain management is of great relevance, the bottle–necks in the supply chain should be solved because InnoBus can lose
customers by not delivering on time. Furthermore, Jan de Koning wants to produce 15 buses per week with the same workforce this is possible by
relocation and restructuring of the production processes, but this costs money and unfortunately they don not have the money yet.
Improve HRM
InnoBus can make sure that they take care of their employees and reduce their complaints. If the employees feel more comfortable with their job, they
will be more motivated and satisfied with their job. In the end this will also increase their productivity. Focus on R&D activities.

with mental illness. Unfortunately, that clouded my contact with the reality of the disorder. Through reading on the disorder, and the psychology
classes I have taken, I was able to push past the stigma and what I was socialized to believe. I disregard the saying that it's just a sign of weakness,
and people just need to get over it. I learned that anyone can be affected by the disorder, even someone who is privileged, and lives a comfortable life.
It is not always an environmental/sociocultural cause, but can be a more chemical/biological response. This definitely reinforced my disapproval of the
stigma on major depressive disorder and encouraged me to fight against it.
