Theme of Violence in African American Literature
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page research paper/essay that examines the theme of violence in Frederick Douglass' Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, Harriet Jacobs' Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl and W.E.B. Du Bois' The Souls of Black Folk. The writer argues that the violence regularly perpetrated against people of African descent is a common thread connecting these works. While, naturally, these authors address other issues and complications of the institution of slavery, violence provides a background theme that serves to underscore all else. It is the coercive and pervasive element that white mainstream culture uses to keep blacks "in their place" during the antebellum era, and long after African Americans theoretically were free. In regards to the slave narratives of Douglass and Jacobs, the writer focuses on the differences between male and female slave experience. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Time and Historical Perspectives Found in the Works of Adrienne Rich, T.S. Eliot, and Toni Morrison
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing time elements used in “Diving into the Wreck”, “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” and “Song of Solomon”. Adrienne Rich, T.S. Eliot and Toni Morrison all use effective perspectives to explore psychological time and history in their works “Diving into the Wreck”, “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” and “Song of Solomon”. Rich’s “Wreck” takes the diver back into an historical environment once the diver is under the water and surrounded by the dark sea and the artifacts. Eliot’s “Prufrock” wrestles with his imminent aging and what little future and time he has left while asking if in his present and past life he has made good use of time. Morrison’s “Solomon” used the circular life of her character Milkman who tries to discover his ancestry in order to make sense of his own self identity. All the works do not focus on the time theme but use interesting elements to highlight the psychological transition of time from present into the past or future. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
