Blog 4: Lamb to the Slaughter

i thought the end of the story was kind of funny in a messed up way. it was ironic that the detectives new that the weapon has to be somewhere in the house, and that it is probably right in front of their noses, while they are eating the lamb. the detectives were very ignorant, it was funny. They didn't suspect that she could kill him.

 she got away with the crime very easily. she would not be able to get away with this now. technology has advanced and they would have been able to figure it out. women were looked at as fragile then, they would never suspect that they committed a crime, now women are considered relatively equal to men, and are thought of capable to commit a crime. this situation would be handled differently now.    

Blog 3: GAC & Cage Reading

the reading was very interesting. It was sad to read about the sister who was forced to whip her sister, but it was good that she did so she could do it genteelly instead of a Nazi doing it aggressively. I found it interesting and inspiring how extravagant the little pencil seemed to them. It was nice to see that they cared about the well being of the girls when they summoned one to be a doctor. i thought it was very inspirational when they kept trying to find Riva a doctor. it was sad to hear how Riva was floundering about to get to the doctor. It made me sick hat the normal people who weren't Nazis refused to give her medical help. I was really happy when they finally found one.

Blog 2: Holocaust Dictionary

I was surprised about Eichmann. i have been learning about the Holocaust since i was little and i never heard of him. i always thought Hitler was the brain and face of the Holocaust, i was surprised to learn that he was the face not the brain. i was astonished to find out that another man was not influenced by hitler but was as cold hearted as him. He designed the concentration camps. he was the brain of the Holocaust and i did not know he existed. He is truly a heartless man to be able to think of the way work and death camps should be built is heartless. without his designs things most likely wouldn't have worked as efficiently and less deaths probably would have occurred. 

Blog 1: Part I Reflection

A part that was interesting to me was chapter 21 pages 1122-126. i thought it was very nice how Riva allowed people to stay in her cellar to hide from the Nazis. they where trying to rick them but everyone stuck together to hide and stay safe. i think it showed how everyone thought of each other as family. it also showed how responsible Riva is. she had to take care of her brothers and was still trying to help everyone else at the risk of her families lives.

Post-Taming Exam Response

The first time Petruchio and Kate meet he showered her with complements which she rejected. He then used force and told her it was a done deal they were going to be married no matter what. On their wedding day he humiliated her by dressing like a fool. he then would not allow her to stay at her own bridal diner. when he took her home he would not feed her or let her sleep. He used food as a way to get her to use her manners. He would not let her have the dress or hat she wanted using the excuse they are for kind gentile lady's you can have them when you behave as such. He then was just overall controlling and was determined to even control the sun and she gave in.

She was finally tamed and her showcased her behavior with a bet which he won. i have no idea what famous couple they are like because i don't follow any actors lives.
