Passage Interpretation/Anna Karenina
[ send me this report ]
A 3 page essay that analyzes a passage from Tolstoy's novel and discusses it in relation to the rest of the book. Tolstoy's epic novel Anna Karenina, after dealing with adultery, disillusionment, being social ostracized and finally with suicide, concludes with a life-affirming declaration by one of the novel's principal characters, Konstantin Dmitrich Levin. Examination of this passage shows that it successfully enforces one of the themes that Tolstoy has stressed throughout the course of the novel, namely the importance of family to happiness and a sense of meaning in life.

Piotr Alekseyevich Kropotkin’s “Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution”
[ send me this report ]
This 8 page report discusses the theories of Piotr Alekseyevich Kropotkin (1842-1941), a Russian geographer, social philosopher, and political anarchist. Kropotkin’s work and observations of the natural world convinced him that creatures survived when they supported one another but had to face an enormous amount of pain and dissension when they turned on one another. Such thinking flew in the face of the popularity of Social Darwinism and served as a significant philosophical contention. “Mutual Aid” was primarily written as a rebuttal to Thomas Huxley’s essay titled “The Struggle for Existence in Human Society.” Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Symbolism and Themes in Aleksandr Pushkin’s “Queen of Spades”
[ send me this report ]
This 20 page report discusses one of the best-known of Aleksandr Pushkin’s (1799-1837) short stories and focuses on the symbolism and thematic content it presents. “The Queen of Spades” was written in 1834, only a few short years before he was to die in a duel over his socialite wife. It is the ironic story of a compulsive gambler, Hermann, who will stop at nothing to obtain a Countess’s secrets on how to win in card games. When he eventually learns the secret and bets heavily upon it, he finds himself holding the wrong card and loses everything. In the opera, he kills himself; in the original story by Pushkin, he goes mad and ends his days in an asylum, repeating the three cards he should have drawn and the three he did draw over and over again. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
