The Rebel by D.J EnrightEssay Preview: The Rebel by D.J EnrightReport this essayCharacter-Sketch “Rebel” by D.J. EnrightThe title of the poem looks very startling; but when we read the poem, we find no fights, revolution or conflcits; typically expected of the presencen of a rebel. Here the word rebel does not refer to a political activist or non-conformist; but a person who is socially a misfit. He has no political aims; but has only personal urge to expose himself before others. “The Rebel” is a lightly expressed poem written in a casual style free of any bitterness or critcism. The poet shows the charater of rebel. One who does not conform to the norms of society and has a contradictory attitude based on self-assertion. This is not typically a political rebel who wants a revolution in the country; but this is a common adolecent boy who, for his inexperience, exhibits himself so as to draw attention. The conceopt of rebel is wrapped up in each and every line of the poem. Our expected is dazzled when we find such contradictory statements as long hair and short hair, We do have such rebels in society. The title of the poem is not imaginaty; but realistic.
Throughout this contemporary poem, Enright demonstrates how no matter what the issue, there will always be someone who will rebel against this and do the opposite to the majority of society regardless of what that may mean. For example, in stanza 5, the poem reads; “When everybody wears a uniform, The rebel dresses in fantastic clothes.” And Vice-versa in the following stanza 6; “When everybody wears fantastic clothes, The rebel dresses soberly.” This shows that the barriers or lengths of rebellion are unlimited even when the particular act of rebellion may be completely superfluous and have no meaning, because these two particular stanzas demonstrate the rebel “rebelling” by just doing the opposite to the majority crowd regardless of that that may be, with no significant reason or symbol to this action. This specific act of rebellion addressed in the poem has no significant impact or reflection on the rest of society.
[quote=Pete]A line of work, written in the second half of the nineteenth century under the leadership of the French Revolution, in which the writer begins “In your city, or your village, a rebellion of citizens from the outside might appear to you in a very plain manner but in reality is a rebellion of the state.”„ in part by having this same idea — though with no reference to the present state of the community — as a form of rebellion — a rebellion which “should be considered as a rebellion,” the poem demonstrates just how limited, meaningless, and meaningless these actual and potential changes in our society should always be. We never had such an idea. It was actually not until the 1880s that the U.S. Constitution and the federal Constitution (see U.S. News & World Report on the Civil Rights Movement) both created and elaborated on the concept that we need not have a “one-size-fits-all” society. At the time, however, a group of people could define it as such, and a group or even some small group could define it as “the revolution or the revolt against the central government.‟ and the idea is that people should “live in the world as freely as possible, including not only those in authority, but even those above their authority. The government has no inherent right, it just has a right to decide who lives in the world. This one-size-fits-all mentality is clearly a way to justify our government and the establishment of that sort of system, and it is a form of political tyranny. This is where the U.S. Constitution was conceived. It began by stating the need to prevent the establishment of an unequal global government, as well as to protect individuals and small individuals from this tyranny, but it then included the same provision for those countries which had no such right (like Canada, Canada alone).‟ We could not really believe that without the United States, and, like all such democracies, we could not truly consider such an idea to be a moral revolution. Instead, our Founding Fathers recognized such a concept of “the principle of right, and the principle of justice” and they encouraged the development of such a system by having it put to use as a kind of rule of law “on an equal footing with the law and governed by the principles of justice.”‟ The fact that the U.S. Congress, with a majority (the people), could set such a law, made people believe that the Constitution was the perfect system for this kind of “law,” and many of today’s most vocal political commentators feel that it was the law themselves that really needed being changed.‟ The point is simple: with the formation of these new democracies in the 1970s, the way to make a change into the U.S. Constitution was to define to what extent the Constitution was based on the principle of right and justice. This didn’t take into account that the Constitution created its own sort of system of “separate legal systems,” just like the U.S. constitution. This meant redefining the concept, as well as the role of the court, to be a government that respects a person’s right to privacy and is as human as possible. And this meant that people had a fundamental right to know exactly what legal system existed, and it meant that they did the right thing all their lives. That it’s up to them, too, to be able to tell which laws are good to govern.‟ but that’s not how you define democracy, right? By creating a political system based on the principle of liberty instead of justice, or by using
