the child's story-Charles Dickens

THE CHILD’S STORY- CHARLES DICKENS
Life is way too long at the beginning and way too short when the end is close, the are many aspects in the life that are invaluable which doesn’t receive the attention they deserve. Life is like a roller coaster trip some people enjoy it, some people fear it, other just live it.
The text is child’s story about when he created something to remember, his life, showing that life seem to be longer than it is and life is about appreciate every single moment and that from the past you just need to remember the best.
The text was as complete as it could be.
This text is powerful because even after reading it you keep thinking about it.
The end of the story is meaningful, is strong and make people see the value of the life, and that at the end you’ll realize how short the trip was.

The fish- Anton Chekhov

The fish- Anton Chekhov
Literature is not only  influence by culture but it also works as a cultural and communicative system, in which cultural phenomena is studied and analysed.
In the tale as soon as the men achieved his goal of caching the fish, the started thinking about its price in the market. In the tale when Andrey accepted to help he did it with ambitious thoughts.
The wish of money and the ambition are things that are in the society independently the cultural background. This may be evidence in this tale, in which the principal idea wasn’t save the fish, was to save the fish and sell it to get some money.
Money makes people forget about their moral, values and even culture, maybe is part of this culture to save animals, but sometimes this purpose is forgotten.
In my point of view this isn’t about the connection between culture and the tale, is about the disconnection between culture and the tale.

A Defenceless Creature

A Defenceless Creature
by Anton Chekhov

The “Defenceless creature” by Anton Chekhov is a primary literature, because it has a high level of detail and may be published in little time.
Our story takes places in a bank in a normal working day, the story is about two workers (kistunov, and Alexey) and an old lady who is asking for  money (Madame Shtchukin). The deal is that Madame Shtchukin is asking to kistunov (which is not his job to give her that money) for the money of her husband who is ill, clarifying that she is just a defenceless creature, an ill woman, and a persistent person, who stays hours waiting and insists saying she need the money, something way too evident for kistunov, who end up paying the money the woman was asking and maybe does not deserve.
