Comparing Boy's Life And Emancipation A Life Fable
Both text have a similar theme, they both compare someone being trapped in something. Both characters want to escape what they are trapped in. For example, in the story "Boy's Life" the character is stuck in school and can’t wait until the bell rings. Which means that he is trying to leave or escape the place he is in, but he is held for a longer time because the teacher wants to discuss something with him and he doesn’t pay attention when she is talking to him which means he doesn’t have patience to listen all he wants to do is leave.

Another example that both stories are similar is that in the story, "Emancipation A Life Fable" is the animal in the story want to escape the cage to see what is beyond he closed door. Every time he tries to exit the door he

For example, one story talks about a kids last day in school. The other story talks about an animal in a cage. One difference between the stories is one of the characters is leaving a cage the other is a kid trying to leave school as quick as possible. Another difference is one of the stories has dialogue and the other one doesn’t.

Another difference is one story has an onomoepea and the other one doesn’t. For example, in the story "from Boy's Life" it says "TICK . . . TICK . . . TICK." Which is an onomonopea because onomonopea is a sound and "TICK" is a sound. In the story “Emancipation: A life Fable” doesn’t have and sort of sound or dialogue.

The most important thing that makes the stories different is the setting and the plot. Both stories may have a similar theme but the setting and plot it what separates them. For example, one story takes place in a cage and the other story takes place in a school. The climax in each story is different from each other. For example, in the story “from Boy’s Life” the student was so desperate to leave the class when the teacher told the class to leave in a single line, which makes the reader wonder what happens

    One point of similarities and differences would be the characters and the relationships that the characters have in both stories, Night and Life is Beautiful. For example, there is a father-son relationship in each of the stories. In Night, the father, Shlomo, and the son, Elie, have a very special bond of love and appreciation toward one another, just like Joshua and Guido do to each other in Life is Beautiful. However, the difference between the two would be that at around the end of the book of Night, Elie's feelings toward his father would change at one period in the story. The reader notices the change when he says “free at last!” (Wiesel 112), yet this change did not happen to Joshua and Guido in Life is Beautiful. By Elie’s change of feeling toward his beloved father, this could change how the reader feels about him whether it is a positive…

    A majority amount of stories may have a similar trait to another piece of writing. A large amount of stories have been compared in ways such as theme, settings, characters, irony, and close evidence of foreshadowing.

These two readings can be said to be identical in some ways by containing a common idea of negative effects of war and the value of the natural world but can be contrasted by being consisted of two different kinds of main characters.…

    To express this the characters have different names in both pieces for example George and Johnson.
