The Power of Society and Imperialism in George Orwell’s “Shooting an Elephant”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing aspects of imperialism and the power of society in George Orwell’s “Shooting an Elephant”. George Orwell’s 1936 essay “Shooting an Elephant” tells the story of when Orwell worked for the Indian Imperial Police in Burma. The story begins with Orwell’s obvious distaste and disgust with the imperial system in which he is a part, its treatment of the natives, and his own reactions to the natives who in turn resent the European presence. When faced with a decision to shoot an elephant which has caused considerable damage and killed its mahout but has since calmed, Orwell reveals that he realized that he was expected to shoot the elephant based on the natives “pressing” him to do it and on his role as the white officer. Rather than going with his instincts to walk away and leave the animal unharmed, Orwell instead fulfills the expectations of him and shoots it but thereby acting on his own anxieties and the pressures of those around him and coming to the conclusion that he actually has no control over his actions and remains a puppet in imperial hands and is no more free than those around him. The power and pressures of society and his inability to act on his liberal feelings shows the readers and Orwell how difficult it is for people to overcome their internal struggles in the presence of heavy influences and perhaps act out of character or perform violent acts against their own better judgment.

The Question of Identity of Olaudah Equiano in “The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano” (1789)
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing “The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano or Gustavus Vassa the African” and the inconsistent details within the narrative which make the reader question the identity of the author. “The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano or Gustavus Vassa the African” was written in English in 1789 and tells of Equiano’s life as a slave. Originally born in Benen, he was enslaved and suffered terribly but later managed to acquire enough learning and independence to become a major influence in advocating the end of the slave trade in Europe with the popularity of his narrative. Within the narrative however, there are several aspects and inconsistencies which bring into question the identity of its author. The narrative is extremely well narrated and written which leads to the authenticity of its narrator in regards to his educational background. The narrative also changes a great deal throughout in regards to formality of speech, first-person third-person shifts and his surprising reactions to others slaves in addition to be occasionally afforded liberty in his movements despite being a slave. Another possibility in regards to the narrative would be that while Equiano may have narrated it, it was written and published in England by someone who may have had a hand in its extensive editing to make it more acceptable within the English publishing market. Bibliography lists 1 source.
