How Violence is Used to Express the Theme of Isolation and Solitude in Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s “One Hundred Years of Solitude”
(5 Pages, 59.75 USD)
|
|
This is a 5 page paper discussing how the motif of violence is used to express the theme of solitude in Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s “One Hundred Years of Solitude”. In Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s “One Hundred Years of Solitude” written in 1967, he uses various themes throughout to help highlight the theme of isolation and solitude experienced by the community of Macondo in the book. One motif used is that of violence which reoccurs throughout the history of the community. The violent cycles within the work increase in their destructive nature but after each occurrence, the community suppresses the memories of the violence. This suppression of memories further isolates the community from reality and the outside world and they eventually create a society based on their own fantasies. Although violence is not meant to be a central focus of the book Marquez is very explicit in the details of the violence which does occur partly to awaken the reader to events which actually have occurred in the history of Columbia and which have been rewritten and suppressed in their own account but also to show to what extent the suppression of such violence can add to the solitude of a community and its characters. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Peru: Sterilization Versus Family Planning
(15 Pages, 179.25 USD)
|
|
15 pages in length. There have been a number of benefits to come out of mandatory birth control in past history. In China, for example, not only has the nation's birth rate dropped significantly over the past decades, but its per capita income has experienced a monumental augmentation - from 235 yuan back in the early 1970's to twenty-two hundred in 1995 - that has yielded its people a much more advantageous existence. For Peru, the issue of overpopulation has come full circle to such an extreme that the nation's family planning organization thought it necessary to force sterilize myriad numbers of unwitting females; in many other cases, however, women were offered as much as fifty pounds of food for their consent. Is this practice one might consider unethical, or is it the only means by which a struggling society can even begin to come to grips with its massive overpopulation problem that family planning cannot control? Bibliography lists 15 sources.
