August Wilson/The Piano Lesson
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that examines August Wilson's play, The Piano Lesson. The writer argues that there are too fundamental perspectives – that of Berniece who wants to keep the piano, which is a 135-year-old family heirloom; or that of her brother Boy Willie – who wants to sell the piano so that he can raise enough money to close a deal on a small plot of land. While both viewpoints are valid – according to their own criteria -- Berniece holds the moral high ground, and by proving this to her brother, she not only gives her own life new direction, but his also.

Briton Hammon’s “Narrative of the Uncommon Sufferings, and Surprizing Deliverance of Briton Hammon”: Against the Status Quo
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing Briton Hammon’s narrative and elements which seem to go against the norms of the time. Briton Hammon’s narrative of his thirteen years at sea seems in many ways to go against the norms of society believed to have existed at that time. Hammon, a slave, was released by his Master to serve at sea. Throughout the narrative, Hammon relates his treatment and his impression of others as if he is a British citizen and this is reflected in his story. Although it appeared he wished to go to sea at the beginning, his final passages express his relief and gratitude for being returned to his Master and his “Native” land, America. Hammon’s story breaks with the status quo and the impressions of the time in that not only was he the first African American prose writer, he also considered himself properly treated by his Master, felt an alliance with Britain and America, was desired and sought after by the Indians and the Governor of Havana and received full wages for his work on the ships while serving Britain. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
