The significance of the sea as a motif enhances the story because it develops the theme of independence and solitude being inseparable. During the course of the book, Edna strives for independence, but doesn’t realize that in the society she lives in independence comes with an abundance of consequences such as loneliness. The significance of the sea plays a major part all through the book because the sea comes to symbolize freedom, escape, rebirth, and strengthens the idea that independence and solitude are entwined. Edna’s first encounter with the sea was the beginning of her journey to self-discovery and throughout the novel the sea is associated with Edna’s awakening. The starting point of Edna’s awakening was established by the alluring

The Narwhal is a whale and is also known as the unicorn of the sea. It is in the family of bottlenose dolphins, orcas, and Belugas (World Wildlife Fund). The scientific name for the Narwhal is Monodon monoceros and it is Greek meaning one-tooth, one-horn. It can grow up to 13-16 feet in length and weighs almost 2 tons (4,000 pounds). The region they are usually located is around the Arctic waters of Canada, Greenland, Norway and Russia. They are known as unicorns of the sea because they have a tusk, one of their teeth, coming out of the front of the skull. According to the World Wildlife fund (2014), “Males most commonly have tusks, and some may even have two. The tusk, which can grow as long as 10 feet, is actually an enlarged tooth.” The

The sea: most people have been to it, but very few ever take the time to ponder the meaning of the sea- what it represents and why it is so enticing. In her novel, The Awakening, Kate Chopin utilizes the symbol of the sea to convey her message to the readers: she uses this symbolism to reveal information about the protagonist, Edna Pontellier, as well as to further the cause of a critical (and, at the time of publishing, avant garde) social movement.

As human beings everyone suffers but we all suffer differently. Some suffer emotionally, some suffer physically, some suffer mentally. And through suffering and pain we gain different experiences, we either overcome pain and sorrows or we break down waste our lives. Edwidge Danticat present the theme of suffering in each of her stories. In all the stories the characters have to go through pain, but they all over come it in different ways. This is true in real life too. in the children of the sea that characters suffer but the outcome is that, in 1937 the outcome is inner peace, and My outcome is discovering myself.

There are just a couple passing references to the ocean in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, yet they are huge as a result of the connection. We just get a look of the ocean and we discover that the Emperor-Over-the-Sea, who is Aslan's dad, is God himself. The ocean turns into a limit between Narnia, the Earth, and "Aslan's nation," or paradise. Lewis uncovers in later books, for example, Voyage of the Dawn Treader, that it is really conceivable to physically cruise over the ocean to Aslan's nation. In addition, the ocean is likewise a limit in the middle of Narnia and our reality.

The ocean in medieval times was a thing of great mystery to the ordinary medieval peasant. However to the explorers, the church and the educated the sea was a dangerous place.

As we grow up, we hear fairy tales and we read them into our lives. Every word and every image is imprinted into our minds. The fairy tales we read are never abandoned. They grow with us and our dreams become molds of the many morals and happily ever afters fairy tales display. We tell children fairy tales when they go to sleep and they read them in school and we even have them watch Disney adaptions that reinforce them further. Generally, they were everywhere while we grew up and they continue to be present while children are growing up now. But what influence do these stories have? We casually expose our children to these tales, but in some cases they can have particularly, harmful personal effects on them, although there is nothing completely or visibly “bad” about them or about the characters in them. Before we divulge our youth to these stories, we should assess their substance and see what sort of effect they may be having on them. They have received so much scrutiny and have been studied by many. Recognizing fairy tales effects on the minds of children is vital in their development. This paper will focus on the underlying messages that the average person wouldn’t recognize in these everyday stories. There’s a modern distort with fairy tales because while they still are widely popular with the youth, they influence children’s self images, outlooks on reality and expectations for their futures, especially for young women.
