let's Research

Straggling is part of life; but straggling to create an annotated bibliography was too much for me. I hardly done any major research paper but this time there was no way to hide from it. It was more frustrating for me because I know my topic and what I need to look for but couldn’t find any relevant source or any proper idea. So, I forced myself to change my chosen topic realigning that I may get more information about the new topic. After spending four hours on the new topic I decide to go back to my old topic. Since then I found some relevant way to look for some books and articles. I went to the library database and found some important idea from Academic search premier and Jstor. My class mates also helped me to find some important article and books. It’s been a great experience for me. Now I know how to do research paper and how to look for scholarly sources.

Shall we??

Shall we compare our hearts to a garden -?
With beautiful blooms, straggling weeds
Shall we compare our eyes to the sky -?
With drizzle, shadows of rainbow come true
Shall we compare our mind to the sea -?
To its deepness, bluish wave flourish
Shall we measure our smile to the sunshine –?
When brightness pushes darkness
Shall we compare us to a new born baby –?
Like a swooping birds; caught peaceful moment

significance of the two stories

In Babette’s feast by Isak Dinesen and in Short Friday by Isaac Bashevis Singer we could fine more similarities than the differences. Both stories explain the significance and impact food has had on them through the story. in “Babette’s Feast” Dinesen seems to draw on her childhood and adult experiences to give the story depth, meanwhile in short Friday Shmul-Leibele is a simpleton, unsuccessful but honest in his job; although, he is not educated but he is expert at following the basic tenets of his religion.


The similarities in both Short Friday and Babette’s Feast are that they deal with thoroughly with pairs of characters. In Short Friday we have Shmul-Leible, Shoshe, Martine, and in Babette’s feast we have Philippa. On the other hand, the author’s first name was very tricky because it seems like same name. While, throughout the stories religions made a significant impact because in Babette’s Feast we meet a catholic women and a religious man and his two daughters, and In Short Friday we saw a religious husband and wife.


However, in both stories the food being appreciated many different ways. In Babette’s Feast, Babette uses all her lottery money for Martine, Philippa to show her creativeness and love for Martine and Philippa and in short Friday Shoshe cooks the delightful food she can do for her man. Another difference is that In Babette's Feast we saw a high class family but in Short Friday, Shmul-Leibele and Shoshe only lived on poor tailoring business.

Food is being very important to both authors because they used food, religion, sexuality, and many different thing to show their meaning of the stories.
