https://padlet.com/eleshanicholls/nqw2958hy9mp A proposal for my literary essay on Life of Pi en-us 2018-12-03 21:09:26 UTC 2018-12-03 22:59:42 UTC hello@padlet.com eleshanicholls https://padlet.com/eleshanicholls/nqw2958hy9mp/wish/310659372 My theme will be on survival and how Pi survives the whole ordeal. Note that survival could be based on a will to live - or having hope or faith. So survival can be a duel complex and I may touch base on all these sub-themes. ]]> 2018-12-03 21:14:15 UTC https://padlet.com/eleshanicholls/nqw2958hy9mp/wish/310659372 eleshanicholls https://padlet.com/eleshanicholls/nqw2958hy9mp/wish/310664638 I decided to work on this theme because the book is based on survival and I'll be able to expand on it .  ]]> 2018-12-03 21:29:50 UTC https://padlet.com/eleshanicholls/nqw2958hy9mp/wish/310664638 eleshanicholls https://padlet.com/eleshanicholls/nqw2958hy9mp/wish/310669067 The evidence of survival being a key theme in Life of Pi, is Pi being stranded on a boat with a tiger that could potentially harm him. He must learn to coexist with the tiger if he wants to survive. ]]> 2018-12-03 21:44:29 UTC https://padlet.com/eleshanicholls/nqw2958hy9mp/wish/310669067 eleshanicholls https://padlet.com/eleshanicholls/nqw2958hy9mp/wish/310669638  "I was alone and orphaned in the middle of the pacific, hanging on to an oar, an adult tiger in front of me, sharks beneath me, a storm raging above me" (Life of Pi, Part 2 - chapter 40

I would have given up – if a voice hadn't made itself heard in my heart. The voice said, "I will not die. I refuse it. I will make it through this nightmare. I will beat the odds, as great as they are. I have survived so far, miraculously." (Life of Pi, Part 2 - chapter 53
