Esquivel & Achebe/A Comparison
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page essay that argues that Laura Esquivel (Like Water for Chocolate, 1994) and Chinua Achebe (Things Fall Apart, 1994) both create characters who are incredibly strong-willed and also invested within their cultures in such a way that it narrows their focus toward other considerations. In other words, Esquivel's Mama Elena and Achebe's Okonkwo suffer their eventual fates due to their obsessive adherence to cultural paradigms, which they follow to the exclusion of all else. This rigid stance causes both characters to be primarily motivated by fear. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Esteban Echeverria/The Slaughter House
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page paper that discusses the use of language in Esteban Echeverria’s “The Slaughter House,” which portrays the political situation in Argentina under the rule of Manuel de Rosas, a “Federalist war hero” (Webb). In describing the effect of Rosas’ rule, Echeverria creates an extended metaphor, a Slaughter House, located “’in the southern part of Buenos Aires, on a huge lot’” (Echeverria cited by Webb). Examination of the literary devices employed by Echeverria demonstrates the way in which he uses this primary metaphor to create an allegory that dramatized the conflict between civilization and barbarism that characterized nineteenth century Argentina. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
