Short Story Analysis: Hanas Suitcase, and Charlottes Web
Conflicts occur in each day activities. Individual differences can be held responsible for the misunderstanding which occur among people. Conflicts may occur between individuals, countries, and friends and also between cultures. Conflicts are bad and should be highly discouraged to occur by all means. In any case such kind of occurrence occur, peacekeeping agencies should always intervene on time before adverse effects take place. Some of the effects from conflict if a consensus has not been arrived at, within the shortest time possible include, and break up of marriages, the death of family members, and drawback of the economy. For example in the short stories; The Hans suitcase and the Charlotte web brings to light what it means to be involved in conflicts, what the parties involved undergoes, and the mistreatments which occur in such scenarios. With, therefore, this paper is going to give more illustration on how Hana, from the short story, Hanas suitcase, and Wilbur from the story, Charlottes web finds themselves in a conflict and how they struggle to come out of their conflicts, it will also compare and contrast the conflicts which the two characters finds themselves in.
To begin with, Hanas life revolves around during times of war between Jewish and non-Jewish groups. The disputes between these groups were severe as the rules and regulations governing the Jewish seemed a nuisance to the non-Jewish especially when Hitler was elected to power. The non-Jewish underwent a lot of mistreatment during the conflicts. For example, Hanas mother and father are taken away from their siblings. (Character vs society) The most painful abuse which Hana undergoes is when she is taken to Auschwitz where her life is terminated using a poisonous gas Zyklon B
On the other hand, in the short story of Charlotte, the primary fight in this short story is that Wilber will be butchered during Christmas time. Due to this, he becomes hysterical in such a way that the other animals cannot silent him down. In his struggles to find a solution, he returns to his life of carefree. Wilbur is disturbed; however his friend Charlotte gives him hope that he will not be butchered during charismas time, in turn, he will live to see many and any charismas days.
Both the short stories provide a different situation which is closely related. For example in the first story, Hanas suitcase, Hanas is struggling through thick and thin to survive. She undergoes through many mistreatments. She is denied the right to play with other children, she is given a star which she wears all round when she goes outside the house to identify her as a Jewish, she is neglected by the non-Jewish, and this makes her feel atrocious and inferior (Levine,5). Similarly, in the short story of the charlottes web, we see Wilbur being born and being threatened to be killed. He is already neglected in his community. If it were not for the small girl Fern who pleaded with her father, Mr. Arable, Wilbur would have killed. Also, Wilber is just dawned that there are plans for him to be butchered in Christmas. He starts to struggle in coming up with a solution which can prevent him from being killed. Just like Hana deed, Wilbur did not give up. He could have come up with thoughts of terminating his life before Christmas or even escape what befall on him but just like Hana Wilbur did not have such thoughts. He struggled till his friend Charlotte come up with a plan which saved him.
Also, in the two conflicts presented in the short stories, the two characters are friendly. They can make friends who help them survive. For example, in each place Hana could be taken, she could make friends with whom she could play with. She would not only play with the friends but also she would enjoy the company. However, this seemed to start coming to an end when she could be given a star to wear. Similarly, Wilbur, on the other hand, meets with Charlotte and they both become friends. It is through this friendship Wilbur, and Charlotte struggles and comes up with a working plan and at long last Wilbur is rescued from being butchered on Christmas.
However not only the conflicts are similar, but also they have some differences, for instance in the story of Hana, the conflict she is being involved results to her being killed. After a lot of mistreatment and struggles, Hana is killed using a poisonous gas. On the other hand, Wilbur after knowing that he will be butchered he struggles in coming out with a trick, and at long last, he is not killed
Also, in the conflict Hana is being associated with, it involves two culture and groups of people who are fighting to do away with the other group. People are mistreating others and do not have any mercy of leaving the other group to live, in response the non-Jewish are trying their best to eliminate the Jewish. On the other hand, the story involves people and also some animals. In the conflict which Wilbur is being involved, the characters have some mercy. For example, through please of Fern, Wilbur was not killed by Ferns father (White, and Garth,12). Though Wilbur is to be butchered, he does not go through a lot of mistreatments like Hana underwent in her conflict.
In conclusion, conflicts are not good, they should not be allowed to occur, and in any case, they happen, peacekeeping parties or third parties responsible for resolving conflicts should always be there to solve them before adverse effects take place. The two characters Hana and Wilber suffer struggle a lot through the conflicts they are associated with. Through them, we learn effects of conflicts. We should see each one as necessary, and culture or race should never be used as a basis to divide people and hence result to war.
In both stories, the conflicts are defined at the very beginning of the plot. Fern Arable, the daughter of the farmer in the Charlottes Web rebels against the parents who want to kill a piglet that was born abnormal . She protects the pig referring to parents consciousness, the pig couldnt help being born small, could it? If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me? (White and Williams 3).
These words also identify the second conflict, man vs society. Thus, we can predict that a pig (that stands for a man) will struggle with the farmer Homer Zuckerman (who stands for society).
The conflict man vs society has two levels in both stories. Wilbur is a pig and according to social norms it should be slaughtered, Wilbur didnt know what to do or which way to run. It seemed as though everybody was after him (White and Williams 19). Thus, Wilburn goes against society two times: the first one was when he was born a runt, and the second times, when he escaped his fate.
