A comparison of Charlotte Gilman’s “The Yellow Wallpaper” and Gabriel Garcia’s “A Very Old Manwith Enormous Wings”
Find an important common theme between the two short storiesand copare them. Use at least 2 quotes from each short story to help support the theme.
I started the paper like this:
Charlotte Gilman?s ?The Yellow Wallpaper? and Gabriel Garcia?s ?A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings? are two short stories that share the theme that human ignorance can cause uncivilized behavior. By nature we as humans tend to base certain situations, which may occur in our lives, on opinions or feelings rather than any fact or evidence. This idea is apparent in the character John from Gilman?s ?The Yellow Wallpaper? and the entire community from Garcia?s ?A very Old Man with Wings?…
I thought maybe human ignorance was a possible theme.?!?.
Also the title must be written like: example
Human Ignorance:
An anaylysis of…
a look at…
a study of…
and add titles and authors
works cited page must be included
the textbook used for this class is: efictions (thomson/Heinle)isbn 0-15-506205-0
the two short stories are on pages 118-129(YW) and 399-404 (AVOMWEW)
you can mention things like plot,setting, point of view, theme, etc in this essay if you like but it is not necessary.
The suggested lay- out is as followed:
Plan A
Intro
Story A idea 1
Idea 2
Idea 3
Story B Idea 1
Idea 2
Idea 3
Conclusion
Plan B
Intro
Story A&B Idea 1
Story A&B Idea 2
Story A&b Idea 3
Conclusion
AS LONG AS IT IS ORGANIZED WELL THAT IS WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT.
If possible please send rough drafts as well, so I can see how things were broken down to the final paper.
