Historical Narrative: Beacon In A Sea Of Darkness

This day will begin as usual. I got up and my eyes hurt because of my lack of sleep. My foot hit a cold floor and trembled in my backbone. This is disappointing. During the winter, weather forecast says tomorrow will be warm, but winter in New York is still very cold (weather 53). I will watch the clock. I do not have time to eat breakfast at 7:50 in the morning. I have to go to work. In this business, you arrive in someone's case on time or he goes to another detective. I grabbed the coat, ran down the stairs of the apartment, tried to disturb the taxi.

When Nick and his father arrived at the shore, Uncle George smoked a cigar and was burning like a weak lighthouse in the dark sea. A cigar can produce light in the dark, intertwining the symbol of understanding with the decadent world of white. After rowing on the shore, he tried to share his world wisdom "Uncle George handed Indian cigars" (2). In another example of the Hemingway symbolism, the Indian with lantern led the way to the Indian camp, and when they arrived at the logging road, the Indians blew out the lantern. The harvested road metaphorically represents Caucasian progress and when Indians embark on this path he no longer needs light because he is no longer in the dark. The Indians have reached the world of his oppressor - a world that can provide him with more shining things, no longer need lanterns

Always fixed mark = Sea mark, outstanding navigation function, lighthouse, transportation guide used. Before the lighthouse, seamen used the famous prominent feature on land as a guide to determine their position in the sea. Coastal churches, towers, rock formations with specific shapes and colors are prominent ocean markers. There is no doubt that the beacon is lit even at the entrance of the main port, but in modern times there is no large beacon network. Most sailors depend heavily on local knowledge. The important thing here is that permanent fixed marks are permanent and can not be shaken, always a guide to throw sailors as storms.
