Where voice is what a reader uses to be on the same path the writer is going. When a poem, displayed in all pun is presented to a reader, occasionally the reader has to not only look but listen to the how the poet is emphasizing certain words. The poet’s choice of words is very important because it reveals what kind of tone and speaker the poet is using to convey an abstract idea. Basically, the speaker of the poem is the voice, which conveys the tone. Despite, it is not only word choice, which contributes to the understanding of the tone and speaker. Via the grasp of the tone, a poem then starts to come alive in front of you. You recognize the sentence patterns, the complicated imagery, symbolism, and other elements of the poem, which could never have been randomly noticed. The African American Nikki Giovanni in the Ego Tripping depicts such voice in a much symbolic manner. It is simply a modern example of voice. In it, Nikki give emphasis to the beauty and discriminating power of the woman. With distinct images of women, which one would infrequently see in the norm, Giovanni allows one to contemplate about these images and connect them like one would have never done before reading the poem. “My oldest daughter is Nefertiti / the tears from my birth pains created the Nile / I am a beautiful woman” (l. 12-15). Giovanni carry through to do this up till she, as the voice, conveys herself through the tone and speaker as the woman ever so calm hitherto ever so powerful.

Jimmy Santiago Baca style is the jumpy, where he immediately goes into bloody details, Baca depicts a scene of “mopping up pools of blood and carting plastic bags stuffed with arms, legs, and hands” as a mundane, normal job experience (164). The continual use of imagery appeals to the reader’s senses as the attention is gained. As is criticized, Baca’s imagery is resplendent and not suitable for young audiences. While phrases such as “the hot lava juices of my primordial making” and “stanzas dripping with birth-blood”. A further stylistic characteristic is Baca’s use of metaphors. At one point in his essay, he speaks of his writing as becoming an island for him to stand on in the middle of a raging ocean (166). These metaphors furnish the reader with an opening into the author’s soul. Not to say that writing saved him, Baca describes writing as “an island . . . like the back of a whale . . . [where] I could finally rest” (166). The imagery and metaphors take the reader off for the author’s imagination. The reader is so engaged using their imagination to ensue Baca’s “rabbit trail” that it is almost hopeless to identify the basic themes that the author wanted to represent.

Virginia Woolf’s essay A Room of One’s Own explores the history of women in literature through a different and highly provocative investigation of the social and material conditions required for the writing of literature. These conditions, like leisure time, privacy, and financial independence ratify all literary production, but they are especially relevant to understanding the situation of women in the literary tradition because women, traditionally, have been continually deprived of those basic prerequisites. She reviews not only the condition of women’s own literature, but also the condition of scholarship, both theoretical and historical, about women. She also specify an aesthetics based on the principle of “incandescence,” the ideal state in which all that is simply personal is consumed in the strength and truth of one’s art. As she writes: “Life is arduous, difficult, a perpetual struggle. It calls for gigantic courage and strength. More than anything, perhaps, creatures of illusion as we are, it calls for confidence in oneself. Without self-confidence we are babes in the cradle.”

Roth’s “The Conversion of the Jews” is an egress from the matchmaking scripts. It is set in a Hebrew school discussion class, and the story focus about a argument which arises between one of the students, Oscar “Ozzie” Freedman, and the teacher, Rabbi Marvin Binder, when Ozzie challenges Rabbi Binder’s biblical interpretation and religious dogmatism. While the following confusion, Rabbi Binder accidentally hits Ozzie, and Ozzie ends up on the roof, threatening to jump unless the crowd gathered below promises never to employ violence in disputes over religion:

The work provides an illuminating view of Jewish American culture and the evolution of attitudes among Jewish Americans. Roth’s writing changes the genre of Jewish American fiction by questioning both the cogency and superiority of many anecdotal unchallenged doctrines of the Jewish faith: “What Ozzie wanted to know was always different.” The value of education is central to Roth’s message in “The Conversion of the Jews.” While he shows Ozzie as a student and Rabbi Binder as a teacher, all over the story, Roth makes it increasingly apparent that Ozzie possesses the true value as a teacher because of his open-minded search for truth and possibility. He paints a picture of the struggle between consecutive generations as children and their elders fight competing drives to remain Jewish and to become American.
