Chapter 22 he’s blind for a reason
0 likes3,500 views
The document discusses how authors use blindness both literally and figuratively in stories to convey important themes and insights about characters. When blindness is introduced early on, it will be significant to the plot or a character's development. Introducing literal blindness also signals figurative themes of seeing or not seeing the truth. For example, in the story "Araby" the main character is blinded to the reality of his romantic interest until the end of the story when he gains clearer insight.

Chapter 21 marked for greatness 
Chapter 21 marked for greatness olh_libraryPhysical markings on literary characters often represent metaphorical qualities and set those characters apart. A author does not include physical imperfections arbitrarily, as they could otherwise write "perfect" characters. Markings can indicate life's damage inflicted on a character and give them a unique outlook that makes them interesting. Physical wounds can reference cultural or historical events that carry emotional meaning for readers. Monster characters take markings to an extreme, using hideous forms to associate characters with evil rather than greatness.
Chapter 13 it’s all political
Chapter 13 it’s all politicalolh_libraryThe document discusses how political influences can be found in writing. Specifically, it states that all writing is influenced by the politics of the time period and the author's own political views. It also provides examples of how to find political allusions or messages in writing by examining the historical context of when the piece was written. As an example, it summarizes how Washington Irving's "Rip Van Winkle" uses changes to a hotel sign to represent how the American Revolution replaced rule under King George with the new nation under George Washington.

Chapter 11 concerning violenceolh_libraryGeorge Milton kills his friend Lennie Small in John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men. This act of violence is an example of authorial violence, which is used by authors to advance the plot, rather than being character-generated. There are two types of violence in literature - narrative violence, which generally harms characters through actions like stabbing and shooting, and authorial violence, which is motivated by the author to move the plot forward, such as ending complications created by Lennie's mental retardation.

Chapter 10 it’s more than rain snowolh_libraryRain can bring unexpected people together through a shared experience of seeking shelter, yet it also isolates individuals. While rain affects everyone, it can have both positive and negative effects through cleansing or causing flooding and destruction of crops. Fog and snow are also used symbolically in literature to represent confusion or abstract thought.
Chapter 5 where have i seen her before 
Chapter 5 where have i seen her before olh_libraryThere is only one fundamental story that exists in all literature due to common human experiences, archetypes, and stock characters. While some connections between works are intentional through allusions, other similarities are unavoidable when using certain storylines or genres that contain essential components to define that type of story. For example, Tim O'Brien's novel Going After Cacciato features a Vietnamese woman guiding soldiers that serves a parallel role to Sacajawea, who helped Lewis and Clark, as both women take on a burden of guiding men through hostile environments essential to their respective stories.

Chapter 4 if it's a square =sonnett olh_libraryThe document discusses different types of sonnets, including their structure and organization. It explains that the Petrarchan sonnet has an octave followed by a sestet, while the Shakespearean sonnet has three quatrains followed by a couplet. The rhyme schemes and organization aim to convey different meanings and themes. The document also notes that a sonnet's content should determine its form, and a modern sonnet may have a unique structure or irregular meter.
Chapter 3 nice to eat you, vampirism 
Chapter 3 nice to eat you, vampirism olh_libraryThe document discusses how vampires in literature can represent more than just blood-sucking creatures. Vampires may symbolize selfishness, exploitation, or disregard for others' freedom. It also notes how ghosts in stories often serve productive roles in advancing the plot rather than just frightening characters. The perspective of the viewer can impact how supernatural elements are interpreted, as a character may view something as a threat when it is actually helping the situation. As an example, the movie August Rush features a boy who believes music will lead him to his lost parents, though an antagonist tries to exploit his talent and prevent their reunion for selfish reasons.
Chapter 2 acts of communion 
Chapter 2 acts of communion olh_libraryEating together is generally an act of fellowship between people who like each other. However, sharing a meal can symbolize things other than religious communion, such as intimacy, as depicted in a novel where a romantic meal symbolizes sex. Acts of communion through shared experiences like food, drugs, or other activities can bring people together regardless of holiness. The sharing of a meal in literature is sometimes used to develop relationships between characters and show them growing closer over the course of the dining experience.

YSPH VMOC Special Report - Measles Outbreak Southwest US 4-23-2025.pptx
YSPH VMOC Special Report - Measles Outbreak Southwest US 4-23-2025.pptxYale School of Public Health - The Virtual Medical Operations Center (VMOC)A measles outbreak originating in West Texas has been linked to confirmed cases in New Mexico, with additional cases reported in Oklahoma and Kansas. The current case count is 739 from Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Kansas. 71 individuals have required hospitalization, and 3 deaths, 2 children in Texas and one adult in New Mexico. These fatalities mark the first measles-related deaths in the United States since 2015 and the first pediatric measles death since 2003.
The YSPH Virtual Medical Operations Center Briefs (VMOC) were created as a service-learning project by faculty and graduate students at the Yale School of Public Health in response to the 2010 Haiti Earthquake. Each year, the VMOC Briefs are produced by students enrolled in Environmental Health Science Course 581 - Public Health Emergencies: Disaster Planning and Response. These briefs compile diverse information sources – including status reports, maps, news articles, and web content– into a single, easily digestible document that can be widely shared and used interactively. Key features of this report include:
- Comprehensive Overview: Provides situation updates, maps, relevant news, and web resources.
- Accessibility: Designed for easy reading, wide distribution, and interactive use.
- Collaboration: The “unlocked" format enables other responders to share, copy, and adapt seamlessly.
The students learn by doing, quickly discovering how and where to find critical information and presenting it in an easily understood manner.

Chapter 22 he’s blind for a reason
- 1. He’s Blind for a Reason You Know Chapter 22
- 2. He’s blind for a Reason You Know Indiana Jones Principle: If there is something important to know about a character, the author will introduce it early. Works in which blindness is manifested early indicates the author’s intention to link it to plot or character. For example, Steven Spielberg places a snake in the airplane in the first sequence so that when we reach the scene with seven thousand snakes we know just how frightened the hero is of snakes. “ When a blind character is introduced, the author has created a minor constellation of difficulties. Every move, every statement by or about the character must accommodate his blindness; every other character has to notice, to behave differently, but subtly.” Thomas C. Foster, How to Read Literature Like a Professor When literal blindness, sight, darkness, and light are introduced, the author is indicating to the reader a sign of figurative seeing and blindness at work. For example: “Araby” by James Joyce presents a young boy who watches, hides , peeks, and gazes his way through a story, but he is really blinded by love from seeing clearly the shallowness of the girl he idealizes. The teenager envisions himself as a hero out of a romance. By the end of the story, the hero finally sees the lack of depth in the girl and finally sees himself as the ridiculous creature he is.
