Need A Response To These 2 Pier Reportsgeorge Freesehow Does The Secon ✓ Solved

Need a response to these 2 pier reports George Freese How does the second story you chose to read compare with Kafka’s Metamorphosis ? They both fall into the genre of magical realism, but what similarities or differences do you see? The difference I saw in "The Graveless Doll of Eric Mutis" was the type of language use in this story compared to "Kafka's Metamorphosis". In the second story, the kids talk and describe things using curse words. In the first story, he was able to do without that.

Also, Gregor could understand them in the new form he turned into. The kids never really found out if the scarecrow was really Eric, they just assumed that it was him. With Eric, the kids try to find out why or who turned him into a scarecrow. With the other story, they just seemed to accept it. There wasn't anyone trying to figure out why their brother or son was turned into this animal.

They also showed some type of bullying in both stories. The kids beat up Eric because of the clothing he wanted to wear, and in the other story the father throws fruits at him and the sister wanted him to leave because of the state he was in. They never really took the time to get to know the bullied characters. I felt like both characters in these different stories were treated really badly about choices that were really not there to decide. Gregor didn't want to turn into an animal it just happened, his family treated him like he was a burden.

Eric couldn't afford a better brand of clothing and the kids didn't like that. The ending of the stories was very similar as far a someone or something dying. Telley Williams How does the second story you chose to read compare with Kafka’s Metamorphosis ? They both fall into the genre of magical realism, but what similarities or differences do you see? The story that I read was Samsa in Love , which was an extension of Metamorphosis .

The main characters went through similar transformations. Both characters woke out of their sleep to discover that their bodies had transformed into something else. Gregor Samsa had become a bug, and in the second reading, the bug discovers that he has become Gregor Samsa. They both struggle to adjust to their new bodies and struggle to move and walk. In Metamorphosis , Gregor still has his mind and knows everything about the world around him, but he could not talk.

In Samsa in Love , Gregor could talk but knew absolutely nothing about the world around him. In Metamorphosis , Gregor Samsa is alienated and rejected by his family. He lives in isolation in his room and is estranged from his family. Seeing how his family acted towards his condition and how his sister had become distant from him, Gregor becomes resentful and depressed and stops eating. Gregor grows weak from not eating and from the injury caused by his father when he threw the apple, and eventually, he dies.

In Samsa in Love , Gregor is alone in the home and could move about if freely. He is unaware of the turn of events that transpired beforehand. Gregor's family is no longer a burden, and he is no longer a burden to his family. He meets the locksmith and falls in love, and he becomes accepting of being a human. This gives him hope that he can find happiness in being a human, while Gregor in Metamorphosis never finds hope or happiness in being a bug.

Response to Peer Reports on Magical Realism in Literature
In comparing George Freese's analysis of "The Graveless Doll of Eric Mutis" and Telley Williams's reflection on "Samsa in Love," there is an insightful conversation about how the genre of magical realism is explored in both works, particularly when placed alongside Franz Kafka's seminal novella, "The Metamorphosis." Both reports delve into the thematic similarities and differences present in these pieces, highlighting issues of identity, alienation, and societal pressures.
Freese aptly points out the difference in language and dialogue between "The Graveless Doll of Eric Mutis" and "The Metamorphosis." In Kafka's work, the tone is both dark and absurd, presenting Gregor Samsa's transformation into an insect in a way that is all-encompassing, using rich language evocative of existential dread and familial rejection (Kafka, 1915). The absence of profanity creates a stark contrast to Freese's observation about the crude language used in Freese's second story, which reflects a visceral reality of adolescent experience and bullying. The more contemporary setting also allows for a raw portrayal of emotions through dialogue, making it relatable while still capturing the essence of magical realism (Freese, 2023).
In "The Graveless Doll of Eric Mutis," children embody cruelty and the mysteries of transformation, paralleling Gregor's familial struggles but in a more community-centered perspective. The children's acceptance of the scarecrow as Eric without questioning the underlying supernatural element reflects a societal indifference towards transformation—whether physical or emotional. Despite both narratives exploring the theme of bullying, as Freese mentions, the motivations behind the transformations vary. Gregor's metamorphosis leads to self-loathing and alienation, while Eric's condition is met with curiosity and a quest for understanding from children, albeit through cruelty (Freese, 2023).
Conversely, Williams’s examination of "Samsa in Love" expands on the framework established in "The Metamorphosis," where it serves as a bridge between the stark gloom of Kafka's original text and a more hopeful storyline. Gregor’s awakening in "Samsa in Love," where he discovers he embodies Gregor Samsa, leads to a narrative shift toward self-acceptance and romantic possibility (Williams, 2023). This contrasts sharply with Gregory's tragic fate in "The Metamorphosis," where self-acceptance is overshadowed by family rejection and death.
The explorations of identity in both stories are profound. In "The Metamorphosis," Gregor becomes increasingly estranged from his previous self and experiences a decline in physical and emotional well-being, ultimately succumbing to his burdensome existence (Kafka, 1915). On the other hand, in "Samsa in Love," Gregor seems to find solace despite the absurdity of his circumstances. The juxtaposition of these experiences underscores the complexities of identity related to social roles and personal expectations.
While Freese focused on the themes of bullying, Williams highlighted the transformation from alienation to potential for connection. Both perspectives examine societal pressures that morph individual identities into forms not conducive to self-acceptance. The societal rejection faced by Gregor and Eric surfaces in their experiences of isolation and misunderstanding within their respective narratives. These narratives highlight literature's potential to encapsulate broader societal issues through the lens of magical realism, eliciting empathy for marginalization and the struggles for self-identity.
In conclusion, both peer responses contribute nuanced interpretations of how magical realism presents transformation, family dynamics, and social pressures in "The Graveless Doll of Eric Mutis," "Samsa in Love," and "The Metamorphosis." The broad strokes of alienation, societal expectations, and the quest for identity cut across genres and eras, reaffirming the literary power of magical realism to probe deeply into human conditions. The varied responses of characters to their extraordinary circumstances invite readers to reflect on their realities, serving as a catalyst for discussion about acceptance and the human condition. It is through these lenses that both stories allow readers to examine contemporary issues through the fantastical milieu of magical realism— a genre that often reflects truths more vividly than realism may.
