Leaders arise to stand up for the foundations they have come to believe are just. They fight for causes when an ideal or a problem in the outside world threatens what they believe. From leaders arise followers, and these followers come as a sign that they truly believe something to be wrong with the world concerning a problem. Thus, since both leader and followers become one, their intent is to protect those who agree with them and those who view them to be saviors of their lives. However, though deeply rooted together in what they believe, there are times when conflicts come about when leaders and follows cannot agree on a way to solve a problem. In W.E.B Du Bois’ selection, “Souls of a Black Folk, readers are introduced to a similar concept where leaders and followers do not see eye to eye. Du Bois makes an argument against Booker T. Washington, where the two leaders clash in their stand for their race. Reader’s are presented with one leader who believes that vocational duties is the only way to earn recognition in the Caucasian society and there is another leader who says to his race, it is time to declare of voice of their own. This divergence actually conflicts with the African American community where followers have to side with either Du Bois or Washington.
One mistake that the audience has to be careful about not to make is that these two characters are not fighting among themselves. Respect is actually one sentiment that is shared between both of these men. Respect comes with the fact that both have noticed a problem in society and are willing to change it no matter the cost. No matter the perspective views upon, there is no doubt that both leaders want to see their fellow brothers resurrect from the hole they have been placed. It is evident that they want the African American community to live a prospering, respecting, and healthy life just like the Caucasians. The need to see your community rise is not a sin, but how will they rise and in what fashion they will rise is the question.
“In all things purely social we can be as separate as the five fingers, and yet one as the hand in all things essential to mutual progress”. Fingers cannot work on their own free will. Without the hand, the fingers that are placed on them might as well be categorized as useless. The hand represents a nation, and this nation that is presented based on Du Bois description is one that is ready to fall. Without the finger’s, there will be no hand and without the hand, the fingers will not exist. The use of the author’s metaphor is to establish the idea that both the white community and the black community have to work together as fellow brothers. Not just those two communities, but in every situation where a nation is present, every member of that nation has to come equally together as one and stand equally as one. Should Caucasians choose to exclude blacks, it is the same as excluding your fingers from your hand. Everything falls apart when discrimination is set in to make blacks a minority and placed under a lesser viewed rank as well as a submissive role. One thing the audience must also realize is that no two fingers are the same nor do they resemble each other. A thumb and a pinky figure can never look alike no matter what an individual tries to do; the two can never be even. A nation is made of different ethnicities and background is the point Du Bois tries to make. Another clever devise that the author uses, is to remind the white community of their own words. “We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Including this piece in the text is a rather clever technique. Unless the white race wants to call themselves hypocrites, they did in fact include these words in their constitution. The author includes this text to make a statement to the white society that what they have written has yet to be put into practice.
It is not very often that those who can lead to take others to a better place arise. Most of the time, those who attempt to make a difference fall and they themselves need help to get back up. However, there are those like W.E.B Du Bois and Booker T. Washington that manage to make it to the top though society has placed them at the bottom. Though they may both disagree on how to rise up, there is no doubt that once they rise, they will carry their people with them.

The Souls of Black Folk Response
By no means in society has oppression ever stood as acceptable. For those who dominate, they see themselves as gods of the new world and seek nothing more than to do what is right and just. However, no where can it be found that these oppressors do not seek what is best and justified for those of their own kind. Any means of hindrance and exclusion of those who subjugate others reflects cowardliness as they fear what those outside of their world have come to take what is theirs. Realizing this, sometimes it is best to keep to keep the community of oppressed ignorant. What they do not know cannot be a threat to their master’s and those who reign as dominant figures over their lives. The oppressed always stands with limited options towards their liberation. Despite this small ideal of breaking free from bondage, the fact is that hope still stands. In a scenario presented patience can be exercised and coming out to say enough is enough is also a preference. This speculation can be proven true when it comes to the days where African Americans were submissive to those of a superior race.
In W.E.B Du Bois’ selection, “Soul’s of a Black Folk”, the author makes it clear when he states to his audience that enough is enough when it comes to being submissive to the Caucasian community. His tone demonstrates impatience towards waiting for change to come to African Americans. He prefers his fellow brothers set out and claim what is already theirs. Readers can identify themselves with this established tone based on the author’s lack of detail throughout his selection. Du Bois goes straight to his points without sugar coating anything; not for his black or white audience. On the other hand, figures such as Booker T. Washington believe that humility is the only key to gain a voice among the white race. His ideal subdues African Americans to vocational duties and encourages them to continue their hard work, for one day it will be recognized. However, there are times when humility is no longer enough. The time comes when the choice to remain silent can determine the balance between repression and deliverance. Du Bois stands as a character who believes in this concept. Booker T. Washington continues to encourage patience, but he stated himself that more than thirty years have passed and though progress is taking place, it is only slight and has only occurred in the northern region. Past generations are gone, and yet the future generation continues to dwell in the poisonous mind set of racism. Du Bois conflicts with Washington in the perspective that patience is no longer a remedy for change. The past generation of Caucasians that have passed, passed on their beliefs, traditions and concepts onto their children. Du. Bois is not concerned with patience and humility which has already been rooted in white children. “Then it dawned upon me with certain suddenness that I was different from the others. A white child was one who refused Du Bois’ card, not only is she white but is nonetheless a girl. Even in the Caucasian community those in the white race have no dominant power. The author’s lack of detail when recalling this memory, illustrates how vivid it felt to be different for the first time. “Their youth shrunk onto tasteless sycophancy, into silent hate. Racism is a contamination. Waiting for the future will have benefit if the problem is not tackled now. The child who refused the author’s card would not have refused it, if she was not thought that those of color held less significance. Though young, she already knows and understands this concept. A child can refuse a colored man. Though there is an age difference, it matters not as long as the skin color is different. Scenarios such as these present a clear reason why Du. Bois lacks detail. Lack of detail demonstrates to his audience and African American community that change needs to happen and it needs to happen soon. Otherwise, those to come will not be any different from those who have already passed. Therefore, tackling the past no longer holds a ground, however, fighting for the future is the only alternative left. To accomplish this impression, being blunt is the only way to gain independence.

Booker T. Washington Response
There are those that it has been said concerning them that they will never prosper no matter what they do. Curses rather than blessing are taken to be their portion. Taking into consideration that these individuals are considered to be at the lowest of society, it is no wonder that to be unworthy will be their crown to wear. However, simply for one to conceive the idea that these individual or rather race will never rise up, does not mean they have to accept it. In fact fighting for their rights is something they will never cease to do. In Booker T. Washington’s selection, “The Atlantic Exposition Address”, the writer reveals his true intent and notion behind the address and indirectly announces to his audience, that the day will come when his race will no longer have to suffice to what Caucasians entail them to.
Booker T. Washington, exercises and amazing ability of peace and tranquility throughout his speech. This ability comes from the fact that the speaker first realizes his audience. Before beginning his speech, readers have to come to the realization that the speaker is an African American being presented to an audience that is predominantly Caucasians. Due to this range of his audience, Washington is very careful with his choice of diction. “I but convey to you, Mr. President and Directors, the sentiment of masses of my race when I say to that in no way have the value and manhood of the American Negro been more fittingly and generously recognized than by the managers of the magnificent Exposition.” Readers must take note that this is the opportunity that the speaker has been waiting for. There is nothing more pleasurable to Washington than to be able to have the voice of African Americans heard not only by society, but now to have the president’s attention. Readers must be careful to understand Washington’s belief, which entailed the proposal that should African Americans have patience and take care of all their vocational duties that Caucasians expected from them, in the end someone will see their hard work and recognize them for it. As he stands in the White House and gives his speech this belief is all that Washington has been striving for for all African Americans. Washington’s choice of diction is very submissive to his white audience. He phrases his words perfectly in the way that is presentable to his audience’s ears. This submissive tone that Booker T. displays is actually very ironic. There is actually an underlined tone to what his true intentions and motivations are, as he raptures his white audience with pleasant words. Should readers pay attention to author’s use of words, Washington is rather promoting his fellow race and trying to change white mindset concerning them. He wants the white race to wake up from their ill minded concepts about blacks and come to their aid. Washington plays a laid down role in being submissive but still finding a prevailing voice to bring about his ambitions. Washington also presents a theme to the audience for himself and other African Americans to his white audience not to judge a person by their appearance. The intension behind the white race for inviting Washington was to demonstrate racial improvement in the south. However, not only did this idea backfire, Washington came out and told his audience what needs to be done in helping his race become better since no progress have been made at all. There are those in the white community that believe that blacks will never rise up to be nothing more than servants, however the author stands before them, using grammar that could be expected from one in the white community who has been to the best of schools. Washington is equivalent to any other professor or high standard individual in the audience that he speaks to. If an African American is capable of that, what is to hinder the rest of his race from also rising up if they were just given the chance to prove their abilities? It is safe to say that, Washington actually indirectly calls his white audience fools.

The Yellow Wallpaper Response
Captivity, bondage, and imprisonment are above all forms of punishment or institution. It is one of the worst conducts that can ever be used to contain. There are those from the outside world who view it a “remedy”. However, ordinary apparitions would view this categorized remedy as insanity and to some extent it perhaps even a form of torture. There are those who can testify to this ideal more than anything and it lies with none other than women. The perception extists for those outside the femanism world that domestic and submissive roles are the kind of savior of women for the fact that it keeps them occupied and out of the way of much more superior men.
Cult of true womanhood impression depicts a destestable concept that those who are victimized would have rid themselves of it in an instant. The utterance of womanhood its self can shake the foundation of women who are entised to this form of slavery. One can imagine that these women did not jump into marriage for a once in a life time joy. It is an expectation of society that those who meet the standards of true womanhood can not be deprived the pleasure of having everyone view them. This pleasure soon turns into a plea when realization hits that there is a necessity for one to be able to express themselves for who they really are. Nonetheless, as long as male figures dominate their lives, that notion is nothing more than wishful thinking. "...there are hedges and walls and gates that lock, and lots of separate little houses for the gardeners and people...I never saw such a garden - large and shady, full of box-bordered paths..." From the narrator’s description, the audience is given the chance to visualize the caged imprisonment illustrated. Everything as the narrator exemplifies in the house surroundings are caged. Much like the mere objects around her, the protagonist is also kept in with no means of change without permission from an authoritative dominat male figure in her life. Also, with the way the house is constructed, it can be understood that a male constructed the house. The house is build to construct power. Evidently, the house keeping the narrator represents a caged prisoner, thus demonstrating the male’s power. Readers were told of a room "opened on the piazza” that the narrator desired. This request however was denied as her husband did not belief it helped her current postion. In hopes not to make the husband angry with her, she kept silent and heeded to what he said for the moment. Once the mentality of being submissive enters a woman, it begins to take toll. There is an indirect indication from the author that when the novel fist opens that eventually the wrong that men utter start to sound truthful when women seeked their spouses happiness and try to subside their anger.
Strength and weakness connected to the cult of true womanhold further goes to show symbolism in the aspect of demonstrating capability between males and females. The title of the author’s work is one its own an encouragment to this ideology. Yellow refers to sunshine in the author’s text. Readers can take notice that during the day time is when main character’s husband has dominat power over and yellow or rather sunshine contributes to the narrator’s sickness. The moonlight on the other hand, creates a sense of liberation for the narrator. Only during the night, can her imagination freely wonder without restriction.
Endless possibilities exist for those who make up their minds that enough is enough. The mind is a dangerous thing to lose; especially when placed under the care of another, it must be nourished as though their own or it deteriorates. Expectations of society can sometimes pull an individual away from this truth and eventually, that individual looses the ability to break free. However, just like most women pursue breaking free, there is no force to place them back into that bondage, especially not that of a male.

A study sample of fifty caretakers of school children with asthma along with nine health professionals was conducted in the USA to help better understand the process by which women take extensive caretaking roles and how it affects them financially. This study examined how health professionals socialize mothers into better taking good care of their children with asthma. It also identifies better ways for mothers to better perform that role and the impact it can have on mothers in better knowing how to guide their children who suffer from asthma. Health workers also go the extra step by helping the children with articulation however, the price for this job can be overbearing to mothers. This article serves a purpose in further understanding some roles that pediatricians have to assume. Working with children proves a challenge for pediatricians due to the fact it takes understanding of both the parent and the child to be able to prescribe any remedy. However, what is not mentioned is whether or not it is an expertise for pediatricians to be able to accomplish helping children with articulation. It also lacks specific training required to help children with asthma to better articulate.

Current argument present addresses the notion of whether or not physicians should be able to use alcohol when they are on duty. In the article read, authors review the perception of physicians who consume alchohol themselves when they are on call. Many argue that this is a private behavior not public information whether or not they drink on call or not. One major argument by most physicians is that alcohol is part of medicine and a way to understand alcohol is to practice it and understand how it works on the body. For now, The American Medical Association prohibits practicing medicine under the influence of alcohol. While on call, physicians are not to consume any alcohol, as researchers feel that they place their patients at risk. Ultimately, I now know that even when practicing health, there will always be conflicts about my own health. For starters, some of my own colleagues might be under alcohol consumption themselves. It tells me to be aware and not to allow the practice of medicine when perusing my career, to not let the career gain control of me. What this article fails to mention are ways to prevent being involved in alcohol while on duty and what causes a physician of all people to take this risk with their own health.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) policy Oral Health Risk Assessment Timing and Establishment of Dental Home are seeking ways have pediatricians play roles in the oral health of children. The purpose behind this is to determine how well pediatricians can treat children’s oral health by examining oral health content while pediatricians they go through educational process. Most pediatricians have stated that the time spent on oral health education during training is inadequate. Overall, educational programs are being instituted to encourage future pediatricians in children’s oral health. This article aids in gaining insight that children are the number one priority of pediatricians throughout the text. There is also an impression made that not only pediatricians, but however, there are organizations seeking make improve future pediatricians with better education. What this article lacks however, is its failure to mention whether or not oral education is a requirement for pediatricians. Also, since this type of oral health education requires schooling, the author fails to mention how many years of schooling oral health would take.

Emphasis so far has been placed teaching pediatricians on interview techniques, diagnosis, and preventive work; Division of the course is split into a theoretical part of lectures and case discussions and a practical part of examining children and their families. Working with children by understanding of this article does not only lie in the walls of a clinic. Also, it is transparent that schooling for pediatricians are very popular and there are endless ways in seeking to help pediatricians improve. Factors not given however, the effects pediatricians go through when they are not able to help the children and their families. It can be assumed that it would break a doctor if they were not able to help their patience.

The importance of quality and duration of pediatric residency training in the U.S. impacts residency training and certification on the degree of skill adequate for pediatric practice. Assessments conducted have tried to outline objectives of the Institute on Pediatrics Residency Training in the U.S.by re-affirming the significance of teaching of clinical pediatrics. However, there are changes in general practice and the loss of hospital privileges for the residency practices. This article demonstrates that even with the mindset of seeking to be a pediatrician, challenges will prove very difficult. In pursing this field’s education, not everything will flow into place. Residency will prove a challenge. What this article does not mention is perhaps key roles or ideas to better prepare and avoid inadequate training under residency when pursuing the pediatric field.

The American Academy of Pediatrics is trying to promote pediatrics by trying to increase the number of pediatricians with early training stages and familiarity of child development. Some feel that since the job entails working with children, pediatricians in training need to build closer relationship between day-care centers. Benefits of senior pediatrician can bring to a day-care experience and can be of help to day-care facilities while encountering in establishing a closer relationship between pediatricians and day-care centers. There is hope towards the idea that one does not need to wait till later in life to be able to start aiming towards their career. Child development helps to understand children of different age groups while still preparing for pediatric role. The change of scenario and challenge of working in a day care center was provided, however, nothing about its cost. Also, there are no references indicating whether or not day care center will be opened to students just seeking for the experienced before they are actually faced with their career.

Payment for the services of pediatricians who conduct diagnostic clinics checks are the most frequently falling by flat rates, either per unit of time or per clinic session, somewhat less frequently by using the part-time salary system, and only rarely on the basis of the fee-for-service system. Pediatricians receive fees most frequently and flat rates or part-time salaries less frequently. Although careers are meant to come from the heart, if the payment does not guarantee human needs it serves only its passion and not helping ensure survival of any individual. This article does not indicate any references towards what happens to pediatricians when they continue to receive flat rates and what actions their units take into helping their health providers. Its good to be well prepared, and this article, does not help to do so.

The Health Institute University of Washington has made its objective to assess pediatricians’ knowledge, attitudes, and professional experience regarding oral health and to determine willingness to incorporate fluoride varnish into their practices. The reason for all this lies with the fact a minority of children especially those poor have limited access and suffer from disproportionately from dentist treatment. However, it is unclear to what degree pediatricians are knowledgeable about preventive oral health and the extent to which they may already be participating in prevention and assessment. The University stresses the importance to know how pediatricians value the promotion of oral health and whether they would be willing to take on additional activities aimed at its improvement. We addressed these questions in a national survey of pediatricians. The pediatrician field expands into many fields since it specifies with children. There are no clear rules of the specific of being a pediatrician. However, though knowing these kinds of doctors can be of help to oral health, little is known about the incidence of dental problems in pediatric practice, and whether pediatricians perceive barriers to their patients' receiving professional dental care.

A study sample of fifty caretakers of school children with asthma along with nine health professionals was conducted in the USA to help better understand the process by which women take extensive caretaking roles and how it affects them financially. This study examined how health professionals socialize mothers into better taking good care of their children with asthma. It also identifies better ways for mothers to better perform that role and the impact it can have on mothers in better knowing how to guide their children who suffer from asthma. Health workers also go the extra step by helping the children with articulation however, the price for this job can be overbearing to mothers. This article serves a purpose in further understanding some roles that pediatricians have to assume. Working with children proves a challenge for pediatricians due to the fact it takes understanding of both the parent and the child to be able to prescribe any remedy. However, what is not mentioned is whether or not it is an expertise for pediatricians to be able to accomplish helping children with articulation. It also lacks specific training required to help children with asthma to better articulate.

Partners in health education in a medical school with only first and second year students and elementary teachers give a message about health to students. Their first aim is to help medical students with their communication skills by teaching children about health. Their second aim is to teach children about ways to preventing injury, disease, and to support teachers with their own effort. At the end, this all contains an assessment impact to the medical student. These sixteen first and second year medical student were to comprise their participants for the study which were assessed during the first and fourth years in teaching by the use of variety. This article contains an encouraging message that there are prior to even entering medical schools that help students pursue their future career. In wanting to deal with heath, this encouragement will help make preparations for the future. However, there was no indication made as to what high schools actually provide this kind of mentoring. Also, although it takes about health and its need to know basis about any kind of doctor, there is no specifics about pediatricians. The articles also does not mention the end result of this experiment as to whether the student found this health message helpful or not towards their medical career.

Current argument present addresses the notion of whether or not physicians should be able to use alcohol when they are on duty. In the article read, authors review the perception of physicians who consume alchohol themselves when they are on call. Many argue that this is a private behavior not public information whether or not they drink on call or not. One major argument by most physicians is that alcohol is part of medicine and a way to understand alcohol is to practice it and understand how it works on the body. For now, The American Medical Association prohibits practicing medicine under the influence of alcohol. While on call, physicians are not to consume any alcohol, as researchers feel that they place their patients at risk. Ultimately, I now know that even when practicing health, there will always be conflicts about my own health. For starters, some of my own colleagues might be under alcohol consumption themselves. It tells me to be aware and not to allow the practice of medicine when perusing my career, to not let the career gain control of me. What this article fails to mention are ways to prevent being involved in alcohol while on duty and what causes a physician of all people to take this risk with their own health.

Heath care has become one of the most needed skills needed into days society. In effort to establish hopes in promoting health, and drawing the attention proof those who seek to pursue health, ways of making the study easier are being provided all around the world. Online technology has been improving for course online to be able to help. A small section of this technology is dedicated to pediatricians in which articles, journals, and newspaper editions have been collected to further help those who seek to desire to major in that field. This article gives at least a hint or relief that pursing a medical field with children is very much welcomed. There are many who require help, and very few there to aid them, thus making my career a necessity in society. The flaw with this technology is that this online recourse is that it does not serve with communication between other pediatricians. Communication of those in the same field would have been more helpful.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) policy Oral Health Risk Assessment Timing and Establishment of Dental Home are seeking ways have pediatricians play roles in the oral health of children. The purpose behind this is to determine how well pediatricians can treat children’s oral health by examining oral health content while pediatricians they go through educational process. Most pediatricians have stated that the time spent on oral health education during training is inadequate. Overall, educational programs are being instituted to encourage future pediatricians in children’s oral health. This article aids in gaining insight that children are the number one priority of pediatricians throughout the text. There is also an impression made that not only pediatricians, but however, there are organizations seeking make improve future pediatricians with better education. What this article lacks however, is its failure to mention whether or not oral education is a requirement for pediatricians. Also, since this type of oral health education requires schooling, the author fails to mention how many years of schooling oral health would take.

Recent case study presents programs aimed at enabling pediatricians to detect and handle instances of incipient or slight psychological disturbances in their pediatric clinics. Emphasis so far has been placed teaching pediatricians on interview techniques, diagnosis, and preventive work; Division of the course is split into a theoretical part of lectures and case discussions and a practical part of examining children and their families. Working with children by understanding of this article does not only lie in the walls of a clinic. Also, it is transparent that schooling for pediatricians are very popular and there are endless ways in seeking to help pediatricians improve. Factors not given however, the effects pediatricians go through when they are not able to help the children and their families. It can be assumed that it would break a doctor if they were not able to help their patience.

The importance of quality and duration of pediatric residency training in the U.S. impacts residency training and certification on the degree of skill adequate for pediatric practice. Assessments conducted have tried to outline objectives of the Institute on Pediatrics Residency Training in the U.S.by re-affirming the significance of teaching of clinical pediatrics. However, there are changes in general practice and the loss of hospital privileges for the residency practices. This article demonstrates that even with the mindset of seeking to be a pediatrician, challenges will prove very difficult. In pursing this field’s education, not everything will flow into place. Residency will prove a challenge. What this article does not mention is perhaps key roles or ideas to better prepare and avoid inadequate training under residency when pursuing the pediatric field.

The American Academy of Pediatrics is trying to promote pediatrics by trying to increase the number of pediatricians with early training stages and familiarity of child development. Some feel that since the job entails working with children, pediatricians in training need to build closer relationship between day-care centers. Benefits of senior pediatrician can bring to a day-care experience and can be of help to day-care facilities while encountering in establishing a closer relationship between pediatricians and day-care centers. There is hope towards the idea that one does not need to wait till later in life to be able to start aiming towards their career. Child development helps to understand children of different age groups while still preparing for pediatric role. The change of scenario and challenge of working in a day care center was provided, however, nothing about its cost. Also, there are no references indicating whether or not day care center will be opened to students just seeking for the experienced before they are actually faced with their career.

Payment for the services of pediatricians who conduct diagnostic clinics checks are the most frequently falling by flat rates, either per unit of time or per clinic session, somewhat less frequently by using the part-time salary system, and only rarely on the basis of the fee-for-service system. Pediatricians receive fees most frequently and flat rates or part-time salaries less frequently. Although careers are meant to come from the heart, if the payment does not guarantee human needs it serves only its passion and not helping ensure survival of any individual. This article does not indicate any references towards what happens to pediatricians when they continue to receive flat rates and what actions their units take into helping their health providers. Its good to be well prepared, and this article, does not help to do so.

The Health Institute University of Washington has made its objective to assess pediatricians’ knowledge, attitudes, and professional experience regarding oral health and to determine willingness to incorporate fluoride varnish into their practices. The reason for all this lies with the fact a minority of children especially those poor have limited access and suffer from disproportionately from dentist treatment. However, it is unclear to what degree pediatricians are knowledgeable about preventive oral health and the extent to which they may already be participating in prevention and assessment. The University stresses the importance to know how pediatricians value the promotion of oral health and whether they would be willing to take on additional activities aimed at its improvement.

Edgar Allan Poe's Response
Something that has been perfeted to no end can attest very difficult to pull apart. Especially when it has been built to what is meant and translated to flawlessness. What could one who is now progressing have a stand against in determining if this perfected establishment is acurate or false. While reviewing Jeanne M. Malloy’s lexis in her simplifying “A pit and the Pendulum” by Edgar Allen Poe, at first glance, it’s a remedy for the audience. If the audience read the origional version, then Malloy’s translation is viewed opon to be that of a savior coming to a reader’s aid. Nonetheless, simply because it is coming from someone with position does not signify it can not be pulled apart. There is always a way to make enhance things. Perfection does not exist even for writers and authors who have the capability to make one think beyond expectation. In her Text, the author tends to make certain ideas present that take a toll on the overall effect of how readers view “A Pit and the Pendulum”. On of them is religion. Apparently, religion plays a key role in this particular work of Poe. An Amazing discovery is the extent to how much God is illustrated in Poe’s text. This reflection reveals that the inquisitors that were present in the selection are priests. Revelations is the key book in the bible emphasised throughout Malloy’s translation. Religion really points out as a stong main idea in the aspect that it sets a notion which contradicts.
Poe was known to have had a drinking problem which was eventually assumed to be the cause of his death. In the final climax of the pit of the pendulum, the narrator is liberated by a hand that grabs him before he falls. In a way, though indirectly, Poe appears to be that man. Should someone have been able to grasp his hand before he fell, death would not have befallen him in such an early state. This in a way emphasizes encouragement of religion. For many individuals, as they hunt every where and still lack to find what it was they were looking for, God becomes their rescuer. However, there are those who deagree with this concept. In Malloy’s tranlation, Hirsch was a presented to not appreciate the conclusion of “A pit and the Pendulum”. This can also correspond with the idea that there were those who did not view Poe in a bright light and that salvation was not menat for him either.
Illustarating only what is believed to be the central idea of Malloy presentation does not just stand on its own. To prove her cause, the use of allusion, allegory and imagery are used to strengthen Malloy’s translation. Imagery, which is strongly presented in “The pit and the Pendulum”, is that of a fallen man. In the eyes of his inquisitors, the protagonist has fallen from grace. Malloy makes a reference to Adam and Eve in this scenario. One can picture, after the sin of Adam and Eve, the two sinners running through the Eden to find cover and hope. Their idea of redemption is concieved in “imagination and heightened consciousness”. No matter how fast or far they ranned, the presence of God was surrounded throughout the entire Eden. Similarily to our selection present, the protagonist runs and desperately searches for a way out and seeks his redemption. However, those who placed him in the pit new what his ebd would be. Even if every obstacle was overcomed, the narrator’s oppressors knew he was trying to survive in a fiery pit all along which was constructed by them, and is their territory. Difference lies with the allusion readers have to make when the narrator is saved. In a way it seems that Adam and Eve were not saved since their time did not include the second coming of christ. The protagonist however, received salvation from the image of a second coming with the general’s hand being that salvation.
There is a setback for readers when Malloy presents an idea of infancy, which conflicts when there is another idea that “mere intellect is in-effectual”. This mention of an infant is in a way a bit insuting. An infant will not be able to escape the pit. Rather tears would have been their way of dealing with the situation present. Children depict innocence, and there was no scenario presented that proved to be within the capacity of a child. There is even a reference of the protagonist being compared to a female because he showed signs of weakness when he realized the fiery pit was close to consuming him. There is a great flaw in saying the narrator in the selection is that of an infant.
It would have taken an interest twist if the narrator of the Poe’s piece was to meet an unexpected end. That would have shifted the entire outcome of the tale. One might make the assumption that after being liberated, nightmare of what the narrator went through would eventually begin to hunt him. Suppose that in reality, the narrator was not a civil human being. Poe could have continues with the effects the pit took on the character. Should he have died, it would also shift the author’s profile on the sense that he was willing to give up on life just like the narrator. Changing a single senario would have evolved entirely the author and the character he himself created. This in a way would have also emphasized the idea that waiting around in a helpless state of a child will cause no aid to come. Determination to change a situatiom would have made the difference.
