Kate Chopin: "Desiree's Baby"

It made her laugh to think of Desiree with a baby. Why, it seemed but yesterday that Desiree was little more than a baby herself; when Monsieur in riding through the gateway of Valmonde had found her lying asleep in the shadow of the big stone pillar. The little one awoke in his arms and began to cry for "Dada. " That was as much as she could do or say. It was no wonder, when she stood one day against the stone pillar in whose shadow she had lain asleep, eighteen years before, that Armand Aubigny riding by and seeing her there, had fallen in love with her.

Decoding the Salem Witch trials, Part 1

The Migrant Experience. A complex set of interacting forces both economic and ecological brought the migrant workers documented in this ethnographic collection to California.

The Migrant Experience

Following World War I, a recession led to a drop in the market price of farm crops and caused Great Plains farmers to increase their productivity through mechanization and the cultivation of more land. This increase in farming activity required an increase in spending that caused many farmers to become financially overextended. The stock market crash in 1929 only served to exacerbate this already tenuous economic situation. Many independent farmers lost their farms when banks came to collect on their notes, while tenant farmers were turned out when economic pressure was brought to bear on large landholders.

The Great Gatsby Summary High School Summary. Gatsby. Définition Dystopie - La Cité de l'ombre. La dystopie est en quelque sorte l’inverse de l’utopie en littérature et au cinéma. En effet, elle est parfois nommée contre-utopie ou anti-utopie; aucun terme ne fait réellement consensus et dépendamment des situations, l’un sera préféré aux autres dans certains milieux. Quoi qu’il en soit, la dystopie se définit comme la représentation d’un monde sombre – souvent temporellement situé dans un avenir lointain – où les libertés individuelles sont fréquemment bafouées et ou généralement l’autorité d’un régime dictatorial ne doit jamais être remise en question.

Cependant, le sens du terme dystopie est large et il n’existe pas réellement de définition qui fasse consensus. On peut retenir qu’un monde dystopique est ainsi conçu qu’il ne permet pas à certains individus (dont font souvent parti le ou les personnages principaux) ou même à la majorité, voire à tous d’accéder au bonheur et/ou à la liberté.
