Stories And Sources
The Relationship between Stories and Their Sources
Most authors use some type of source when writing a story. The source could be religious, scientific, or something else that
is inspiring to them. Even great writers such as Shakespeare had
a source in which their stories came from. The source can be
used for many different purposes. A certain author may use a
source to show different parallels between two stories or to show
similarities between events or characters. They may use the
source to prove a point or to add meaning to the book. The
source could also just be an ambiguous connection that helps
complete the story. Whatever the authors reason for picking a
certain source it seems to give the story completion and
significance. In this class, we read many stories in which the
source deals with religion and especially the gospels. In this
paper, I will discuss these different stories and how they relate
to their religous sources.
The first story we read in class was, ?A Visit of Charity?E
by Eudora Welty. In this story, the source that is eluded to is
the Genesis story of Adam and Eve. The story begins with Marian,
a young campfire girl, who is on her way
