What is this type of literature called?
3 Comments Published January 29th, 2010 in types of literatureI keep thinking it is existentialism. Please help:
Literature that is just streaming thoughts. Just like your thoughts go from one thing to something totally different. I read a book like this years ago and i loved it, and now i want to know what that type of writing is.
It's a writing technique called "stream of consciousness." William Faulkner and James Joyce are two examples of classic writers who were famous for using it. Or infamous, depending on your point of view.

Why is it said that Biography is a particularly American form of literature?
1 Comment Published November 24th, 2009 in forms of literatureI have to write a paragraph on this topic.
I didn't even know that it was an American form of literature!
Thanks for any help!
Maybe you should qualify this by using the term Modern Biography.
The distinction between mass biography and literary biography which had formed by mid nineteenth century reflected a breach between high culture and middle-class culture. This division would endure for the remainder of the century. Biography began to flower thanks to new publishing technologies and an expanding reading public. This revolution in publishing made books available to a larger audience of readers. Almost ten times as many American biographies appeared from 1840 to 1860 than had appeared in the first two decades of the century. In addition, affordable paperback editions of popular biographies were published for the first time. Also, American periodicals began publishing series of biographical sketches. (Casper, 1999) The topical emphasis shifted from republican heroes to self-made men.

In nonfiction, a biography can clearly portray a character quite completely, with as much detail, personal and otherwise, as the research uncovers. Similarly, historical nonfiction develops characters significantly.
A novel has the length and breadth to do the same in fiction.

i know that having peers who speak well… frequent reading and talking can help, is there anything else i can do?
or do i simply need to socialise more?
Reading more,be an input block for a while to be a good output later,also having friends and talking with people helps.Try to listen more than talking,this will help you be a good input block.
Later you'll have stories ,expressions and words will pour like water (not saliva:D) from your mouth.Try to be yourself,express yourself,always try to say the story by your own words.

I suggest that first, you are focused on your goal to become eloquent. When you are now focused, the next steps will be easy to follow.
1. get your dictionary and study one word a day.
2. read a lot. newspapers can help.
3. always try to apply the simple reading skills you've learned; like context clues, if it won't work, ask somebody you know that knows the meaning of a word/phrase/idiom… or better yet, consult Mr. Webster
4. practice talking, until it becomes your habit and finally a part of your lifestyle
5. watch t.v. shows or movies more often… haha.. funny to think that while you're being entertained, you are learning something new… maybe nothing new with the language, but at least you learn something about a culture… and language is actually part of the so-called culture.. I think you know what I mean…
and yeah I more thing… build your confidence in public speaking… don't be afraid, don't hesistate.. if you got something to say that you really think matters, be bold to speak your mind… and finally, don't lose focus on your goal…
I don't claim to be a guru by now.. but at least trying these in the past really helped me build my speaking skills…
PS. asking people to monitor your progress would be definitely of great help… you yourself should also record your progress… write journals, if not an entry in a diary… I think it could also hone your writing skills… at least you're developing another facet of expressing yourself…
