Bram Stoker's "Dracula," Oscar Wilde's "The Picture Of Dorian Gray" And Flann O’Brien’s "At Swim-Two-Birds": In Depth Critical Analysis And Comparison
[ send me this paper ]
20 pages in length. Bram Stoker's Dracula, Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray and Flann O'Brien's At Swim-Two-Birds appear to be about as diverse as any three stories can be; however, while there is the admitted variance between and among these tales, there is also a common denominator that binds three seemingly unrelated themes. The struggle for acceptance in Stoker's Dracula, the obsessive nature of self-love in Wilde's Dorian Gray and the ability to laugh at society in O'Brien's Birds brings to light how three distinctive stories are able to come together under the guise of human conflict and successfully share the same thematic point. At the same time, however, all three stories possess their own unique contribution to the literary world, in that each one stands apart from the others in specific ways. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Chekhov And Oates: "The Lady With The Pet Dog" - Comparing The Two Protagonists
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Gender perspective serves as the defining difference between Joyce Carol Oates and Anton Chekhov's respective versions of The Lady With the Pet Dog. While two couples in love represent the common denominator shared by both stories, the image of gender weakness is a decidedly blatant and undermining attribute of Oates' female character. Moreover, the way in which the authors describe her comes from two entirely different perspectives, with Chekhov regarding her as proud, dignified and lovely, while Oates can only focus upon her overall shortcomings when giving literary life to her protagonist. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
