Since the dawn of time, humans have always had a certain relationship with nature, whether negative or positive. Adam and Eve were exiled from paradise for eating from the forbidden tree. Neanderthals thrived living in caves while having constant interactions with nature. And now, in our time, the relationship continues. This ever-changing relationship between man and nature is the focus of two writers, Wendell Berry and Terry Tempest Williams. The two writers have a similar voice and style in some aspects, but differ in others. In Terry Tempest Williams' One-Breasted Clan, she talks about the women in her family who are battling breast cancer. She points out that the reason is the nuclear tests carried out in Utah. Williams' tone throughout his writing is both courageous and determined yet angry. This is seen when she writes: “But as I walked toward the city of Mercury, it was more than a gesture of peace. It was a gesture from the clan of one-breasted women. » She writes this explaining that she drove through the Nevada Test Site on March 18, 1988 in an attempt to protest nuclear testing in the deserts. Not only does his tone affect his voice. & style but she also uses many literary techniques. Terry's essay is a narrative and contains many dialogues. This greatly affects his voice because the audience can relate much more than if it wasn't a narrative. On top of that, she also uses a lot of imagery and figurative language. As Williams presents her dreams, she uses vivid imagery saying, "I saw this flash of light in the night in the desert" and "The women danced wildly as the sparks broke from the flames and entered the sky night in the form of stars. This use of imagery gives a...... middle of paper ...... and I realize that it is to renew the life of this possibility that I have come here. What I'm leaving is something I'm looking forward to. Thus, Wendell Berry's ever-changing tone and vivid images help him achieve his goal, which is to emphasize the importance of humans slowing down and being aware of the harmful effects of rapid actions. An Entry into the Woods”, provides a perspective on the human relationship with nature. Terry Tempest Williams criticizes man for being merciless towards nature and other humans. Wendell Berry thinks the same thing. He believes that man needs nature as much as he needs civilization. However, whatever their differences, both authors offer an insightful perspective on the ever-changing relationship between man and nature. And this relationship is and will always be changing.
