.... difference in this is the fact that while Odysseus faced more mythical challenges, Huck braved through the challenges of his modern society, and the types of people in it. But even so, one could easily say that Huckleberry Finn made almost the exact same journey as Odysseus, with a slightly modern twist added to it. To start, both characters have reasonings behind their journeys as to why they start it. Odysseus began his sea bound adventure because of the fact that he was allowed his freedom from Calypso, who has been holding him captive in hopes of turning him into her husband. So Odysseus is allowed to set sail back to his homeland. Huck set out his a .....

.... old way of work, if not the job itself. Although concentrates on a particular culture, and an obsolescent one at that, Ishiguro makes many insightful observations on human behavior in general. I will explore a few of these observations here, and attempt to show that Ishiguro’s work possesses meaning far beyond an examination of one emotionally-repressed servant. Ishiguro illustrates Stevens, and all of the old English butlers, as characters who basically amount to machines, unable to think for themselves. They see loyalty to the master as the only thing that matters in the world. Every time Stevens ends his lines with “sir,” he is rep .....

.... Kafka's father had a bad violent temper. In "Metamorphosis," Mr. Samsa showed violent anger. When he saw Gregor transformed into the monstrous vermin, he chased Gregor back to his room and as Gregor approached the door, Mr. Samsa kicked him in the back. He also threw an apple at Gregor, demonstrating how violent he could get when he wasn't satisfied with what Gregor looked like or did, just as Kafka's father demonstrated it. Another way Kafka reflected his life to "Metamorphosis" is in his thoughts and feelings. Kafka developed a low self-esteem because of the way his father treated him; his father made him feel as though he was not wanted by the way .....

.... who read it, and in others, it is a book that tends to be on the racist side at times. When one reads the very first page of Twains book, a sense of adventure and mystery can be readily found. Huckleberry Finn starts off by describing how his adventures in life had all begun. He and his friends form a gang, first by writing their name in blood and second, by taking an oath that vows to never reveal their secrets to anyone. If one reveals their secrets to anyone, they would be killed and their family would be killed also. At first glance while reading this page, it would seem as though Huck Finn was a boy who was a killer and one with no conscience, b .....
