The territory was at that time populated by tribes (Apaches, Sioux, Cheyenne,…) who came from Asia through the Bering Strait. They were about 2 millions when the European arrived. But 90% of these Amerindian, wrongly named Indian by Christophe Colomb who thought to have reached the Indian coast, disappeared during the first years of colonization. During the 16th century, beginning of the European colonization

fiction were flux, change, time as opposed to order and form. The unique quality of her art is given by her ability to balance these notions in such a way that one enhances the other. Plot, character, comedy, tragedy and the concentration on ‘love interests’, the old conventional themes, were all disposed of, and no longer considered adequate to communicate the stream of the modern consciousness.

After the murder, however, her powerful personality begins to disintegrate, leaving Macbeth increasingly alone. He fluctuates between fits of fevered action, in which he plots a series of murders to secure his throne, and moments of terrible guilt (as when Banquo's ghost appears) and absolute pessimism (after his wife's death, when he seems to succumb

Also, the modernist literature often takes man in his primitive state as a point of reference. It displays an awareness of the complexity of the mind and the self. Modernist literature is aware of the “fluidity of consciousness”, of the force of the unconscious, and of a division between the

we define Alex's identity? First we can discuss the relation between Alex and the machines: there is a strong link between the two. For example Alex is at the hospital, linked to some machines so he can breath, then before his accident, he used to love cars (very expensive, sophisticated and fast cars), more than that: he is an engineer.
