In paragraph two the information states ‘”W e hold these truths to be selectiveness, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by the Eire Creator with retain unalienTABLE Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and pursuit of H peppiness; that, to secure these rights. ” This section is stating the three main rights Life, Liberty, and pursuit of Happiness. The other two rights mentioned in the Declaration of Independence e are more of responsibilities or duties.
One Of the two examples is found in the middle Of p arcograph TV “any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and institute a new Government”. The quote is basically stating t at if the government is destructive it is their duty to destroy it. The other example is at the bottom of paragraph two. “it is their (the people) right, it is their duty, to throw off such g overspent, and to provide new Guards for their future security. It says almost the same thing as the first example but reexamining how it is important for the people to do this. Only three gene oral rights were explained in the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration of the Rights o f Man and Citizen gave many rights that prove it is the more radical document. In article five “La w can only prohibit such actions as are hurtful to society’ which means the people can h eave freedom within legal limits. Article six has a right that helped with equality. All citizens, being equal in the eyes of law, are equally eligible to all dignities and to all public positions and occupy actions, according to their abilities, and without distinction except that of their virtues and talent s. ” This part of the article summarized means all can run for office. “No person shall be accused, arrested or imprisoned except in the cases and according to the forms prescribed by law. “The quote can be found in article seven and means no one can be arrested unless convicted of a crime.
Article eight is summarized in this quote ‘the law shall provide for such punishments only are strictly and obviously necessary. ” meaning a crime a small notice can not get a large s entente. Innocent until proven guilty is the general idea of article nine, stating “As all persons AR e held innocent until they shall have been declared guilty. ” Article ten as shown “No one shall be disquieted on count of his opinions, including his religious views, provided their manifests Zion does not disturb public order established by law. ” is very important.
That quote is static nag freedom of views, religion, and speech. A similar article meaning is article eleven “Every CIA tizzy may, accordingly, speak, write, and print with freedom, but shall be responsible for such abuses of this freedom as shall be defined by law. ” The quoted means Freedom of speech a ND press. Article twelve is quoted as “Military forces are, therefore, established for the food of all and not for the arsenal advantage of those to whom they shall be entrusted Article eleven means military forces are not for personal use.
Articles thirteen and fourteen deal with taxes. Thirteen is explaining there will be taxes but equally amount paid in classes. Article thirty en explains this by saying “A common contribution is essential for the maintenance of the public forces and for the cost of administration. This should be equitably distributed among all citizens in proportion to their means. ” Fourteen means the citizens are allowed to know what the taxed s are going to.
Article fourteen shows this by saying “to know to what uses it is put; and to if x the proportion, the mode of assessment,and of collection, and the duration of the taxes. ” The final article that shows the French Declaration is more radical than the American one is article fifteen. “Society has the right to require of every public agent an account of his administration. ” Article fifteen means the administration must allow to show information. The Declaration of Rights of Man and the Citizenship is proven to be a more radical document then the Declaration of Independence.
“The Invisible Man” Is A Novel By Ralph Ellison
There is a constant struggle for people to find their self identity in a world where society tries to force them to become somebody else. Society often sets standards that “well respected citizens” should meet, limiting people from developing their own views of the world and making their own decisions. In Invisible Man, Ralph Ellison portrays the experiences that a young black American goes through that shapes, and more often than not, blinds his identity.
In my excerpt, the narrator is at the Golden Day trying to relieve Mr. Norton of his fainting spells. The vet is attending to Mr. Norton and questions Mr. North’s views of the “destiny’ that the college brings to him. This excerpt is significant because it foreshadows many realities and symbols that the invisible man will eventually understand by the end Of the novel.
The vet is used by Ellison as the “wise fool” that is supposedly mentally ill but speaks the truth. He shocks Mr… Norton and the narrator by speaking honestly to Mr. Norton, who is accustomed to people just trying to please him because of his great power. The vet boldly states,”You cannot see or hear or meal the truth of what you see-and you, looking for destiny! It’s classic!
And the boy, this automaton, he was made of the very mud of the region and he sees far less than you(95). ” The blindness motif is exemplified by the vet’s words. Almost unnaturally keen, the vet calls out both the narrator and Mr… Norton to be completely unaware of each others existence. To the narrator, Mr… Norton is a genuinely good person who gives blacks the opportunity to gain power and try to do something with their lives. However, as the vet proclaims, the narrator is just “a mark on the scorecard(95)” on Mr. North’s achievement, which shows that the narrator is nothing but a number that represents the reputation of Mr. Norton. He only cares about the narrator because he desires to perpetuate the dominance that the whites have in society.
The college actually serves to enslave black people even more and attempts to place them where it wants in society, which is serving the whites. As the vet figuratively puts it, the narrator is “made of the very mud of this region and sees far less than you(95). ” This metaphor is effective because it describes the narrator being made of mud, which is typically muggy and unclear, which accurately characterizes the narrator’s viewpoints at this point in the novel.
He acts to his white superiors with reverential respect and gives absolute allegiance to their wants and commands. However, he is blind to the fact that these superiors, especially Mr… Norton, only try to manipulate the narrator to get what they want. In this passage, the veteran strongly references the samba doll that appears later in the novel. By saying that Mr. North’s relationship to the narrator is “not a man to him, but a God, a force(95)”.
Tora, Tora, Tora Vs. Pearl Harbor
In my essay, I will be comparing Tort! Tort! Tort! And Pearl Harbor. In the obvious sense, both movies were about the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor was made in 2001 by Touchstone Pictures and Tort! Tort! Tort! Was made by Twentieth Century Fox in 1970. There is a big difference in the making of the movies, which means the special effects will be different and so will the context. But the story frame will be the same. In Tort! Tort! Tort! , the movie was mostly based on the Japanese in planning for their attack in the pacific.
The movie starts off with the Japanese navy embers all lined up on the deck awaiting the arrival of Vice-Admiral Hampton, who studied at Harvard University, which is in Boston. He was the one who was setting up the attack, fifth U. S. Didn’t negotiate peace with them. In the U. S. , they had a new system in receiving messages from the Japanese. This was called Operation Magic, and the U. S. Decoded everything that came from Japan. There were 14 messages in the whole movie and the 14th was the most vital message because it let the U. S. Now that the Japanese was going to attack Pearl Harbor on December 7th at 1 pm their time. Now, towards the end of the movie, it seemed like the U. S. Had a vague clue what the Japanese was going to do. But the U. S. Wasn’t too worried about it. The radar on top of the mountain in the Hawaiian National park spotted movement in the air about 140 miles away. The two privates working the radar called it in to the information center, but the commander there was like don’t worry about it. The Japanese was quite hesitant about this mission, because their main target was the U. S. ‘s main carriers which had left the harbor.
They weren’t sure if they were going to be detected in the air field or not, if they were, they would have been shot down and the U. S. Would have had time to prepare. But the main focal point in the movie was the Japanese and what they were going to do and plan the attack. This was more of a strategic movie, while in the movie Pearl Harbor, the main focal point of the movie was the two pilots, Raff McCauley, Danny Walker, and nurse Evelyn Johnson. You can almost call this movie a love story until the end of the movie where the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, just like in Tort!
Tort! Tort!. The remaining moments of both movies, Pearl Harbor was attacked. Both movies had some similarities like the bombing of the harbor, some knowledge of what the Japanese was doing, and the colored cook shooting he machine gun and getting into the combat scene. The bombing of the harbor might have been the same, but the action sequence was totally different. Pearl Harbor showed many graphic scenes like blood and guts; this was because the movie was made in 2001 and that’s what people today want to see. They want action and gore.
The explosions were realistic and so were the death. It was almost like they captured the real essence of the terrible attack. But in Tort! Tort! Tort! , the death scenes were minimal, I mean you could barely see any of the officers get killed, there was absolutely no blood ND guts, and the explosions were like little firecrackers going off during a 4th of July show. There one big explosion in the whole movie. In Pearl Harbor, Cuba Gooding Jar. Played the black cook, who was also a boxer. He had more of a role in this movie than the other black cook in the other movie. In Tort! Tort! Tort! The cook was in the film for about five seconds and it was him shooting a big machine gun, and that was the end of him for that movie, but in the other movie, the cook was in it for about 30 minutes combined. He was in a couple of scenes. They showed him box, cook, he was with the admiral at he time he died and he told the cook to go fight with honor, and then they showed him fighting and when it was all over, he survived the whole ordeal. The characters of both movies were mostly different because in Pearl Harbor, there were many characters that weren’t in the other movie, like the President, all of the admirals, and the Japanese officers.
But in the other movie, the Japanese were heavily involved, as were the admirals, dealing with the code breaking operation. The U. S. Seemed a little too calm when the harbor was attacked, not a lot of hustle at all, where in Pearl Harbor, all of the en seemed hurried and they were trying to get to their posts and defeat the Japanese. In Pearl Harbor, the love that McCauley had for the girl was similar to the love that the Japanese had in strategically planning and training for their attack in Tort! Tort! Tort!. There are three men who come close to having an individual impact.
The first is Admiral Usurious Hampton (SOHO Yammer), the conflicted overall commander of the Japanese fleet. It is his duty to carry out the attack on Pearl Harbor, but, having studied at Harvard, he believes his country is underestimating the Americans and sees Japan’s lodestars military as acting foolishly and presumptuously. The movie closes on his quote: “l fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve. ” History, especially in the form of atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, would prove him to be tragically right. Cool. Rufus Britton (E.
G. Marshall) and Let. Commander Alvin Kramer (Wesley Daddy) are two of the select few who are privy to the secret decoding room where the Japanese messages are intercepted. Throughout Tort! Tort! Tort! , Britton and Kramer become convinced that the Japanese are planning massive attack, but, while their superiors pay lip service to the warnings, the two industrious men are largely ignored. The film spends a significant amount of time with Britton and Kramer, illustrating that the United States had access to information that might have prevented the tragedy at Pearl Harbor, but did not use it.
According to some critics, Tort! Tort! Tort! , was a more plot centered movie, than a character setting movie, it was informative, and it didn’t show the Japanese being the enemy. They thought that this kind of idea for a movie, where they show the planning and the situations in preventing the incident. It was a different kind of movie. The critics loved pearl Harbor because of the action sequence and the story line of a couple of country boys who loved flying, falling in love and fighting at the same time.
They thought that the movie was historically wrong and that veterans would be mad that they would make a movie like this. Finally, the era of both movies were completely different. Pearl Harbor, was made in 2001 , where everything is going to be different than a movie that was made in 1970. The graphics would be better in one movie, the content would be different, and the language would be different. Nobody back in 1970 made ivies with excessive cursing and violence. But today people are outrageously different.
People want violence and cursing, because it’s in their nature. They hear it, say it, and do it on a regular basis. But overall Tort! Tort! Tort! By far is the better movie out of the two, for history buffs. But these two movies do share some qualities that all people like, like the strategic planning, the violence, the action, and the theme. Those ideas are from both movies combined. These two movies do share more differences than similarities dealing with the characters, themes, focal points, special effects, and the eras, but only one can be better.
