AI Thread Summary
For an in-class essay on "Authority and Rebellion," suggested texts include "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by Ken Kesey, which explores themes of rebellion against oppressive authority. George Orwell's "1984" is recommended for its portrayal of resistance against a totalitarian regime, while "Animal Farm" illustrates rebellion among animals against their oppressors. Additionally, "Lord of the Flies" and "The Chrysalids" were mentioned as relevant sources. These texts collectively provide diverse perspectives on the dynamics between authority and rebellion.

I know this is an awkward question, but, i would say it's more of seeking advice. I am doing a in-class essay in 3 weeks about "Authority and Rebellion" and i need three different sources to be used in answering an un-seen question. I've decide to use "The Crucible" (Miller), but i need two other texts, poems etc. based upon "Authority and Rebellion. Would anyone be kind enough to suggest any texts to the above criteria?


Thanks

Have you read "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by Ken Kesey? That book is all about rebelling against authority.

Also, check out "1984" by George Orwell. It's about Big Brother and how the protagonist tries to rebell against BB.
 
'Animal Farm' by George Orwell is about animals rebelling again other animals that believe they have authority over the other animals and a twist of fate turns this all around on them.

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
