Explanation:

The hero of Jack London’s The Call of the Wild (1903) is Buck, a St. Bernard/Scotch Shepherd dog. Late one night in 1897, a poor farm-worker steals Buck from his comfortable Northern California home and sells him as a sled dog. Set mostly during the Klondike Gold Rush of 1897–98 in Canada’s Yukon Territory and Alaska, the novel chronicles Buck’s struggles and successes as he learns “the law of club and fang.”

Four years as a domesticated pet have not extinguished Buck’s primordial instincts or imagination. He courageously survives brutal cruelty from humans and the wilderness, and he becomes the leader of his dogsled team. He endures hunger and fatigue, learns to scavenge for food, and fights with a rival dog. Despite all this hardship, Buck is “mastered by the sheer surging of life” for the first time. Ultimately, Buck struggles between his love for his last master, John Thornton, and his desire to answer the mysterious call of his ancestors.

Drawing from Egerton R. Young’s historical narrative My Dogs in the Northland (1902), Jack London wrote The Call of the Wild in only one month. It first appeared in summer 1903 as a serialized work in the Saturday Evening Post. Although London was paid only $2,750 for the novel, he won instant literary fame and wide popularity.

London’s artistic intentions were often misunderstood. After one particular critique from President Theodore Roosevelt and naturalist John Burroughs, London wrote a letter of explanation: “The writing of [The Call of the Wild and White Fang] ... was in truth a protest against the ‘humanizing’ of animals.... Time and again ... I wrote, speaking of my dog-heroes: ‘He did not think these things; he merely did them’... These dog-heroes of mine were not directed by abstract reasoning, but by instinct, sensation, and emotion, and by simple reasoning.”

For this, and for London’s vivid description of the struggle for survival in a hostile environment, generations of children and adults have found The Call of the Wild an unforgettable adventure.

Major Characters in the Book

The Dogs

Buck

The narrator tells the story from Buck’s point of view. Stolen from his California home to labor as a sled dog in the Klondike, Buck quickly learns to survive and triumph. In addition to his cunning, patience, and strength, Buck’s greatest quality is his imagination, which allows him to fight by both instinct and reason.

Spitz

This well-traveled animal—a big white dog from Spitzbergen, Norway—is a practiced fighter who hates Buck. Despite his greater experience, Spitz meets his match when Buck challenges his leadership in a fight to the death.

Dave

The greatest desire of this gloomy, morose dog is to be left alone. Although he sleeps at every possible moment, he surprises Buck when they are first harnessed as a team: Dave loves his work and becomes a fair, wise teacher.

Sol-leks

His name means “the angry one,” an apt description of his feelings whenever another dog approaches from his blind side. Like Dave, Sol-leks wants to be left alone, loves his work, and quickly teaches Buck the best ways to work as a team.

The Humans

Judge Miller

Buck and his father, Elmo, were the prized pets of this kind-hearted judge who owns a large ranch in northern California’s Santa Clara Valley.

Manuel

This underpaid worker cannot support his wife and children. Motivated by easy money, he steals Buck one evening and sells him as a sled dog during the 1897-1898 Klondike Gold Rush.

The “man with the red sweater”

Never named, this man becomes the embodiment of one of the most important lessons Buck ever learns: In the quest for survival, the “law of club and fang” reigns supreme.

Perrault and François

These intrepid French-Canadian couriers bear important dispatches for the Canadian government, so they are happy to find a dog as strong as Buck. They are never cruel to their dogs, and Buck grows to respect their kind severity.

Hal, Charles, and Mercedes

A mixture of selfishness, greed, and incompetence distinguishes these middle-class Americans as some of literature’s most memorable antagonists. Hal’s ruthless beating of Buck is sure to awaken the reader’s desire for justice.

John Thornton

Thornton rescues Buck, and this man’s kindness and love heal more than the dog’s physical wounds. Master and dog save each other repeatedly.

Your English teacher wants you to write a story. Your story must begin with this sentence:
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: The ball flew through the air and landed in the tree. I went ahead and climbed up to the tree and knocked out the ball. As soon as I hit the ball, a stray dog got the ball and ran towards a pile of boxes. The piles of boxes were filled with trash that smelled like tuna fish. I looked through the boxes and found the dog with their 8 puppies, which were about 3 weeks old. I then bought dog food for the puppies and also for the mother. After that I took them to the vet for a check up. Everything went well, I named each puppy after famous basketball players. I’ll never forget that amazing day.

Short-response prompt (15 points)
Bogdan [553]

The Balinese production of The Tempestuses shadow puppetry to display an interpretation of William Shakespeare’s famous work. This alternative form of performance focuses more on the fluidity, or sharpness, of the characters’ movement. When analyzing Ariel in this form, it is very apparent that her actions are very projected compared to other characters, by the excess movement of her arms and fingers. However, this projection is shown not with velocity in motion, but with a very smooth complexion in Ariel’s movement. This emphasizes the fragility of her character by connecting her to something very easily tampered with, like the smoothness of still water, that changes with something even as soft as a breeze. The Balinese play also uses the clever technique of utilizing their lighting as a form of portraying Ariel’s character, by physically moving the actor towards and away from the light in order to change the size of the shadow shown. This was well utilized by not only Ariel, but the entire Balinese cast. When Prospero manipulates Ariel into believing that her deed was an act of gratitude for releasing her from her imprisonment, the cast makes Prospero noticeably larger in size and Ariel noticeably smaller. This adds dynamic contrast to the characters and allows the audience to view Ariel as much more timid and frail, as well as Prospero much scarier and evil.
