Elizabeth Bowen’s “The Demon Lover”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing the various perspectives of Elizabeth Bowen’s short story “The Demon Lover”. The analysis is preceded by a brief biography of the Bowen. Elizabeth Bowen’s short story “The Demon Lover” is considered one of her most analyzed and controversial works in terms of content and implied intention of the writer. Written during the beginning of World War II, the story is about a woman, Mrs. Kathleen Drover, who returns to her home to pick up some things to take back to her family while they are staying in the country during the bombing. Or is it? Critics of the story have various theories about the actual intent and events which take place in the tale. While some critics view the story purely from a horror perspective in which her former psychotic lover from World War I returns, other critics believe that her journey is one from a psychological perspective while others again argue that the tale was written in an allegorical sense and depicts the horror and terror of war itself.

Elizabeth Gaskell/Mary Barton
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that examines Gaskell's novel Mary Barton (1848), which was certainly not unique in pointing out the miserable conditions that characterized the life of nineteenth century English working classes. Like Dickens' Oliver Twist and others, Gaskell describes scenes of wretched squalor, but she does so in a manner that makes it clear that the middle-class ideal of domesticity and cleanliness, which was equated in Victorian society with concepts of decency, failed to perceive the realities of working class life. Gaskell's characterization of the industrial working classes negates the popular Victorian perceptions regarding the 'lower' classes and shows not only the details of their lives, but also how those details fit into the context of the lives of her characters.

In these narratives, young African Americans receive a complicated lesson in American culture, lessons that will make the protagonists evaluate who they are and the position that they occupy in the society at large, and – most of all – whether or not they will accept this position as it is given.

Ellison's Invisible Man
[ send me this paper ]
Ralph Ellison's The Invisible Man is not really invisible, as he explains in the prologue: 'I am a man of substance, of flesh and bones, fiber and liquids--and I might even be said to possess a mind'. This 5 page paper argues that the story tells of the process used by one man to first recognize then reject the occurrences of his life that are linked to the fundamental racism of American society. It is through this process that he forms his own identity. No additional sources are listed.

Ellmann on Eliot's Waste Land
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that summarizes and discusses Maud Ellmann's "A Sphinx Without a Secret: The Waste Land," a critique of the poem by T.S. Eliot. Ellmann begins her discussion of T.S. Eliot's poem The Waste Land by comparing it to a phrase from an Oscar Wild's story, saying that the work is an example of a "sphinx without a secret" (Ellmann 258). In so doing, Ellmann begins her detailed and insightful examination of Eliot, which looks at this poem from a psychoanalytical perspective, which favors a post-structuralist reading of the text. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
