'The Spirit Catches You And You Fall Down' And 'The Great Mortality' - How People React To Catastrophe
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Reactions to catastrophic events vary to a significant degree depending upon the cultural and social implications. The extent to which the aspects of public and private tragedy serve to further deepen the divide is both grand and far-reaching; that each form of catastrophe brings about responses of anger, perceived betrayal and outright erroneousness speaks to human nature's prerequisite to find answers to questions that do not always exist. This realization is duly illustrated in Fadiman's The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down and Kelly's The Great Mortality whereby each other depicts the aftermath of tragedy that marks a watershed moment in the lives of those who endure the catastrophe. No additional sources cited.
