Third Day Of The Wolf Essay, Research Paper
Comparison on:
The Interlopers and The Third Day of The Wolf
The story The Interlopers , is about two men fighting over a
strip of land. Ulrich von Gradwitz was the owner of the land. Georg
Znaeym was the intruder. For many years these two families have
never gotten along. By the end of the story, both men realize the they
were both fighting over petty things. They really didn t have a good
reason to hate each other. So, as they were both forgive each other
for the many years of hatred, they get eaten by a pack of wolves.
In the poem The Third Day of The Wolf , a wolf enters a city in
Canada. The is a huge three day man-hunt for the wolf. As the wolf
runs scared, confused, and lost through the city, men with torches,
guns, and whistles chase him. The wolf can smell the men and the
artillery of weapons. Planes dive downward chasing the wolf toward the
man-made shield of devastation. Finally, cornered, the wolf with its
mad yellow eyes, and aching empty belly gets a shot from one of the
hunters. The shot didn t kill it, the wolf was then beaten. That as well
didn t kill it, it was then shot once more, which was finally the moment
of expiration on the wolf s life.
These two ensembles of literature where alike in some ways, but
then different in others. Both tales ended in sheer brutal death for the
trespasser. The victims which were killed, were founded trapped with
nowhere to go, knowing their end had come. Both pieces were written
by a male author, which shows that there is going to be death in the
sections. Both were placed in the cold winter season. Though one is a
poem and one is a story, both of them have the same suspense,
which drives readers the press on and finish reading the story . In
both pieces the victims were in an unfamiliar area. The wolf in the
city, and the men in the woods. Both had a moral the their stories.
The poem mentioned how man uses guns and helicopters to help
make them more powerful then nature. The story made me feel that
its never to late to start over, you re never to hateful to forgive and be
the bigger man.
