John Steinbeck's 'The Pearl' vs. William Bradford's 'Of Plymouth Plantation'
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper comparing and contrasting William Bradford's 1650 work with John Steinbeck's 1945 one. The writer concludes that what pulled the Pilgrim community through its evil times, even more than their God, was the strength they derived from each other and the faith they shared. In embracing capitalism, Steinbeck's protagonist turns his back on his culture, and thus on a big part of himself. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
