oki have to compare and contrast the situation of two authors who are trapped. i chose George Orwell's" shooting an elephant" and jon swift's " A modest Proposal".
can someone steer me in any direction?
so far:---same: both are trapped by the british
differences: orwel is writting for himself
swift is writting to educate the ppl.

i can't think of anyting else.

I am not sure if this will help but broaden the spectrum a bit and compare and contrast the differences they are trapped by the British...not just in each other...i am sure there are differating circumstances that they are both in...I have not read either book, but have a lot of experience in compare-contrast writing.

Look at their emotions and
visualize

sight
sound
smell


meaning walk in their separate shoes and compare the two experiences

then show how they differ
