Voltaire earned much fame and criticism at the same time for his powerful crusade against injustice and bigotry, expressed in brilliant literature. He went up against the government and the Catholic hierarchy, particularly because of the Grand Inquisition. His character, Candide, was very much patterned after his own personality and experience, but his character begins by believing in goodness as prevailing in the world and ends the same way, despite his (Voltaire's) deadly cynicism. His famous phrase, "the best of possible worlds," has been his landmark, and the question that follows is, "what then are the others?"

86.289 Booker T. Washington and W.E. B. Du Bois.
This paper discusses Booker T. Washington and W.E.B.Du Bois. Booker T. Washington preached for racial uplift through educational attainments and economic advancement. Booker T. Washington said to bow down to the whites and accept being inferior. T. Booker chose the last name Washington when he attended school and later learned that his real last name was Taliaferro. A man who strayed more on the middle path was W.E.B. Du Bois. The more militant W.E.B. Du Bois objected to such a quiescent approach and strongly opposed Booker. Booker's strong point is that he told blacks that they should get a better education; they should better themselves. Du Bois thought Booker was too laid back. It was his thought that if you don't protest against the status quo then nothing will happen to change it.

87.299 A View on Tobias Wolff's "Say Yes".
This paper details my perception of the short story, "Say Yes." Love knows no color, but love isn't always easy. Both these points are illustrated in Tobias Wolff's "Say Yes." He displays the frustration of interracial marriages in the exchange between a husband and wife. This paper attempts the answer to the question, can we really "know" one another if our skin isn't the same color. "Say Yes" is an emotional story of love and its pitfalls. In this provocative story, the husband loves his wife dearly but fails to really know that all she wants to hear is affirmation of her proposal of love despite the racial undertone involve. The husband does not come to the realization of this concept until the end of the story when he accepts the proposal and puts forth the effort to "make it up" to his wife, Ann.

89.16017 Lu Xun and His Quest For a New Society.
It is justifiable to say that in “Diary of a Madman” Lu Xun was able to construct a fiction that fiercely criticized the contemporary Chinese society. The story drew attention of readers and literary activists because of what was said in the story. The style was only one but an important aspect that appropriately matched the story.
