Nobody

The attitude of our main character is seen through the book of Invisble Man is of great importance for reasons such his inclination towards always being submissive. In his incident with Mr. Norton, he would do just as the man would say, ending in the post slave cabins. These small mistake did have a great cost on the character's life, since he ended up expelled.

It must be taken into account the discussion between the college director Dr. Blesdoe and the character. There are many details that came from the director, specially his way of acting superior to the white people and even his own race. This is noticed by the way in which Bledsoe desperatley tries to act against the white people and the reasons for his acting since every african american is invisible, such as our main character. Bledsoe does not tolerate the way in which the white people feel superior since he furiously asks the boy, " He ordered you." (pg. 139) As Ellijah italices this particular word, ordered, it recalls back to the time of slavery. Just as our character, he obeys. Dr. Bledsoe thinks he is superior to the white people, thus he still diminishes a person like him by saying " Nigger" (pg. 139). Even if he was fighting against the white control, he is making part of it by acting just like one of them.

Although our main character seems to be submissive, he still tries to fight for his place at college, however, he does not succeed. He retreats from his fight since the director tells him the truth of " You're nobody, son. You don't exist- can't you see that?" (pg. 143).

Imagination

The Romantics perhaps are now the pioneers of what today would be known as the ones who had a great buzz. Apparently, the 19th century was running out of ideas, or at least life was becoming a monotonous routine. There were tensions in the church since writers started to write about Atheism. Moreover, even scientists got to disect human bodies and learn about what many writers would say, the imprisonment of our soul. However, there is a great revolution which affected greatly on writers in the art of the imagination. Even so, this was the casue of the small but powerful opium.

The Opium must be recognized as a very powerful drug which has been used primarily for means of insipiration. Just as one of the Romantic poets, Caldridge, started with the use of opium, he had great trips in which he had visions. In one, he wrote half poem. However, these trips would soon be forgotten. With the thrist for knew ideas and inspiration, the Caldriged became addicted to this drug. It may have been a great source for new ideas, but what had began to live, then it would start destructing itself.

Even so, such  deceptive drug brought into the minds of these poets, such as Cadridge, the meaninf of the soul. Before, it was just a body full with bones and organs, but now, the romanitcs would see that benath this burden, there was the soul. It would be a contreversy between scientists and romantics since the soul was nowhere to be seen. The soul could be also referred to the inspiration in which the arts define. The imagination, the part of the brain which caused such revolutionary ideas. The imagination had the ability to create new worlds, change lives.
