Essay About Culture

Crafting an essay on the topic of culture can be both a challenging and intriguing endeavor. The vast
and multifaceted nature of culture makes it a complex subject to explore, as it encompasses a wide
range of aspects such as traditions, beliefs, customs, language, art, and social norms. The challenge
lies in presenting a comprehensive yet focused perspective on a topic that is inherently diverse and
dynamic.

One of the difficulties is striking the right balance between depth and breadth. Culture is a broad
concept, and delving too deeply into one aspect may risk neglecting others that are equally
significant. On the other hand, attempting to cover everything may result in a superficial treatment
of each element. Finding the sweet spot that allows for a nuanced exploration of key cultural facets
while maintaining coherence can be a delicate task.

Another hurdle is navigating the inherent subjectivity of cultural experiences. Culture is deeply
personal, shaped by individual perspectives, and influenced by various factors such as geography,
history, and personal background. Addressing this complexity requires careful consideration of
diverse viewpoints, which can add another layer of difficulty to the writing process.

Additionally, the challenge extends to avoiding cultural stereotypes and oversimplifications. Cultures
are dynamic and ever-evolving, and relying on clichés or generalizations can undermine the
authenticity and richness of the subject matter. Striking a balance between acknowledging
commonalities and celebrating diversity is crucial for an essay that accurately reflects the
complexities of culture.

In conclusion, crafting an essay about culture demands a thoughtful approach, requiring a writer to
navigate the vastness of the topic, respect its subjective nature, and avoid oversimplifications. While
challenging, it is also an opportunity to explore the richness and diversity that culture offers.

Hunting Is A Staple Of American Tradition
Hunting has become a staple of American traditions since the beginning of the first
hunter/gatherers, to the Native Americans who have lived in the U.S for millennia, even
all the way until present day. Much of today s society looks at hunting as a cruel activity
when in reality it has more of a positive effect on the environment than it does harm.
There are an abundance of benefits that come from hunting. Some of the benefits of
hunting are: it is the biggest contribution to conserving wildlife, the meat is healthier than
commercially produced meat, many jobs are being supported out of hunting, and every
hunter wants to bag the trophy animal; however, there are a few cons to this, which
include poaching and interference by the activist... Show more content on Helpwriting.net

In Arizona, because of the lesser population of animals, one may only harvest one
antlered deer, one elk, and two javelina per person per year. Additionally, the hunter
must be drawn in a lottery style process for allocating the limited number of Arizona
big game and other limited species hunt permit tags to applicants (AZ Game Fish).
Not every applicant who applies for a tag gets drawn, this is part of the system of
controlling the population of wildlife to ensure no animal is over hunted. However, in
other states, there might be other regulations based on the population of the animal.
For example, in Kentucky, one may be able to harvest four deer per year including one
antlered deer (Kentucky Game and Fish). A famous example of overgrazing is the
Kaibab plateau in northern Arizona in the early 1900 s. In summary, cattle was
introduced to the plateau and thus created the problem of overgrazing the land. Then
in 1906 Theodore Roosevelt declared the area the Grand Canyon National Game
Preserve. The regulators of the area officially banned hunting of deer in 1907, in
addition, the extermination of predators of deer was put into effect. By 1920 the deer
population had risen out of control from these laws and hunting was reopened. This
overpopulation of deer caused overgrazing to happen once again and 60,000 deer starved
within the next two winters. The image above shows the population of deer from 1905
Liam O Flaherty s The Sniper
In short stories, many people may overlook how greatly an author described the setting.
It is important that a well thought out framework is included in a piece of literature.
The Sniper by Liam O Flaherty, gives a fair setting of Dublin, Ireland at the break of the
night. On a rooftop, across the large city street, the sniper unknowingly faced his brother.
They re inevitably against one another, both now torn apart by civil war. The night they
clashed was what the author seemingly described the most. Setting for this story creates
conflict because the sniper had extreme difficulty seeing his brother in the darkness. The
narrator had said, The long June twilight faded into night. Dublin lay enveloped in
darkness but for the dim light of
Literary Techniques Used in Mother to Son by Langston...
Mother to Son, written by Langston Hughes, is a short poem about a mother who is
teaching her son about perseverance and determination by using the image of a staircase.

what happens, he should never give up. Even though this is a rather sad poem, there is a

A staircase that is broken would not be in a wealthy person s home, so this also shows
us that she is poor. In the 1920 s, which was when this poem was written, many African
Americans were moving from the South into the cities for a chance at making a
living. Most of them were very poor and lived in poverty, which is why the staircases
would be broken down, bare, and no carpet. The title, Mother to Son, tells us that this
is a mother giving her son advice. Langston Hughes opens the poem by saying, Well,
son, I ll tell you: (1), which could mean that the son had asked her about her life or that
maybe he was complaining about his current struggles. The mother then begins to tell
her son that her life has not been easy, but she never gives up and she urges her son to
do the same: So boy, don t you turn back. Don t you set down on the step Cause you
finds it s kinder hard. Don t you fall now
The mother is telling her son that he should never turn around or sit down just because
it gets tough, and she uses herself as an example. You can see the determination that
this mother has. She keeps trying and persevering through her troubles, even when it
seems like there is no hope, And sometimes goin in the dark / Where there ain t been
no light. (12 13). And sometimes goin in the dark (12) could mean two things: she felt
hopeless at some points in her life, or that it was hard to see the way. If a place is
completely dark with no trace light, it is
