Ursula Le Guin’s Use Of The Psychomyth
Number of Words: 575 / Number of Pages: 3
... the except to make fun and laugh. We find it repulsive how they are dirty, smelly, and often beg from us. Mentally or physically challenged people in our society often receive the same treatment. We make fun because they are not as intelligent or physically fit as we are. They might have to use some sort of assistance to get around. They might not be able to speak like us or understand things the way most of us do. These are just two examples of people living in these isolated rooms. We acknowledge that they are there, but most of the time we do nothing. Instead, we ignore them and go on w ...

... to his parents as distant and generalizes both his father and mother frequently throughout his chronicle. One example is: "…my parents would have about two hemorrhages apiece if I told anything personal about them. They’re quite touchy about anything like that, especially my father. They’re nice and all – I’m not saying that – but they’re also touchy as hell" (Salinger 1).

... is Kafka's
structural organization of paragraphs. Most of the paragraphs are
confusing and lengthy; some even more than one or two pages long. In
chapter two when Joseph is speaking at the Court of Inquiry, he is abruptly
interrupted by the shrieks of a woman. Kafka explains the scene in almost
two pages, paying extreme attention to detail. Most of his descriptions
seem unnecessary, redundant, and quite confusing. At one point he is
describing the scene of one part of the room, then Kafka describes a
revelation, which occurs to Joseph about the men to whom he is speaking.
Ordinarily, an author ...

with her brother. It is Grete's changing actions, feelings, and speech toward
her brother, coupled with her accession to womanhood, that seem to parallel

Gregor falls in the midst of despair, Grete ascends to a self-sufficient, sexual
woman.
It is Grete who initially tries conscient ...

After reading any significant portion of this site, it will become obvious that Piggy and Jack symbolize two opposite extremes of ...
