Hawthorne Works

the connections that we yearn for equally specific to the person. Because the nature of human connections can be both vague and ambiguous, we will discuss works by Herman Melville, Walt Whitman, and Nathaniel Hawthorne in order to expand our understanding of relationships and connections, in addition to what they encompass. In “Bartleby the Scrivener,” Melville considers that sharing heritage in addition to the social nature of humans makes us desire to be connected to one another, possibly to perserve mankind. Walt Whitman suggests that humans…

The Early American Fiction Writers Washington Irvin, Nathaniel Hawthorne and Edgar Allan Poe Contributed Significantly to the American Literary Canon with their Unique Styles of Writing and their Varied Literary Themes and Forms Referred to as the Romantic Era in both America and Europe, the late eighteenth century and the early nineteenth century gave rise to phenomenon writers that made massive contributions to the American literary canon. At the time, these new forms of literature were…

The late eighteenth and the beginning of the nineteenth century was considered a romantic period in America and Europe. During this time, there were early American fiction writers who became very famous through their short fiction horror writing. Some of these writers were considered Gothic writers because of how their romantic short stories will often end in tragedy. These early American fiction writers were Washington Irving, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Edgar Allan Poe. I will be…

Essay Question #1 I believe that if the Hawthorne Studies were to be conducted today, I think that we would find that many of the results would be very similar to those found in the 1920’s, because many of the studies conducted allowed workers to express how they felt about their work conditions, to have breaks and down time, and to be able to socialize with their coworkers freely. The people in this study and the people who experienced management under that Classical Theory most likely had a…

I mostly made the decision to do this because of the women like in Bananeras, women that have to work 7 days a week and 24 hours. Maybe not quite that much, but it’s in a sense how I felt when I read their stories. They have to work almost every day and we spend our day shopping for deals. It’s like a war on Black Friday, people fight and push and will do anything to get what they went out there for. We’re spending our days fighting, when people are working all day. It’s something to think…

But first, a manager has to take the time to identify the toxic behavior. The behavior is often identified as toxic or poisonous because once it is in; it does take a great amount of work to filter it out. A manager can attempt to communicate with their personnel in reference to their issues and see if they can adequately reduce their damaging approach to convert into a helpful and positive colleague of the group. If that misses the mark, the organization must carefully expunge this type of…

Lucy McCormick, of ‘GET IN THE BACK OF THE VAN’ (GITBOTV), influenced my practice through her solo workshop and subsequent conversations because I found her style and attitude towards creative work particularly stimulating and we share an enthusiasm for pushing theatrical boundaries. Her approach demonstrates that, “the question of boundaries and extremes is always in the room” (McCormick, 2014). In our workshop on ‘The Importance of Being Ernest’ Lucy got one of my classmates, Laura, to chew…

presents more vigorously. In my own decision making if I saw a situation in which people responded differently in the same situation I would analyze what the situation was and take action based on what I perceived. For example, if I saw two workers with a job to do, presented with the same situation, and one was working while the other stood by and watched I might address the one not participating in order to get him involved in the project. The next dyad we will discuss is when the situation…

Mothers working has increased dramatically since the 1970s. Women have evolved since the late 1900s. Many work in work fields alongside men. Becoming mothers does not stop many of them from still working. A lower percent of mothers stay at home, although, it should not be for every woman. Women should not feel obligated to be a stay at home mother; they should be able to be independent, to be a role-model to their children, and to be capable to bring a larger income into the home. Most…

How important is work in today’s society? Imagine a world without work, a world in which nothing would get accomplished, now imagine a world in which everyone enjoyed work, and accomplished countless tasks every day. There has to be a happy medium. In order for the world to be successful work is a necessity, everyone has their own attitude toward work and the exertion level they are willing to put in. My first observation leads me into my backyard where I observe my father meticulously picking…
