Jane Eyre and Daisy Miller . a study

In both novels the narrations shape the idea that the ladies in the stories  are young, inexperienced but they have a purpose, though it is not clear which it might be.Having in both cases unreliable narrators who describe with the little information they have, lets the reader judge by themselves the path  the lives of these two female protagonists could follow.

In the case of Daisy Miller James uses a third person narrator with a limited amount of information to share.This perspective with certain limitations , seems to be that of Mr Winterbourne.This type of narrator makes the story rich in the sense that it creates an atmosphere of doubt about Daisy´s intentions and beleifs.The voice which is used by this narrator chosen by James is conversational and also cheerful, with a carefree tone. It appears that the author wants the reader to capture Daisy´s naive manners by using the voice of a narrator that considers her like that.

Jane Eyre on the other hand,expresses her own feelings and narrates whatever she experiences.The author uses her point of view to give the reader the same picture Jane has.The purpose of Bronte could also be for the reader to be as surprised or sad about the events as Jane is in the story.Innocent and full of hopes when she is chosen for performing a job at the manor, her voice guides the reader into her life with the same insecurities she had and her same expectations.

As a conclusion, the role of narration and point of view are essential in both stories and help the reader have a picture of the girls .By using the word picture I mean that the narrators capture moments in both lives and leave the rest to the action that develops and the decisions the girls make.

Why does the poet believe that "Whole libraries that no one/got around to writing" is "More disturbing than book ashes?"
Drupady [299]
In the poem, Burning a Book, by William Stafford, is a poem describing a burning book, and then going to more dept of what it means. In the poem Stafford says, "More disturbing than book ashes are whole libraries that no one got around to writing." The meaning of this is that burning books is not as terrible as not writing them at all. Stafford is trying to say that if you have an idea for a book and you do not write the book, or start it, but never finish, then that is worse then burning a book that's already written. He also says , "If a book isn't written, no one needs to burn it---- ignorance can dance in the absence of fire." This is meaning that if you do not write book then it can not be burned, so instead of fire burning it, the lack of knowledge is burning the unwritten book. Do you agree with Stafford?

pshichka [43]
Satanta was a leader of the Kiowa tribe who fought an endless war to protect his tribe's land from being taken away from the U.S. government. In the 1860s and 1870s, the Kiowa Indians waged an ongoing battle to protect their land and way of life from the U.S. encroachment. Satanta also known as White Bear, was a major Kiowa leader in favor of resistance.
