Chapter 7

1. The device that appears in the vet’s advice to the narrator, after he tells him to “come out of the fog” is a Metaphor. 

2. When the vet tells the narrator to be his own father he is telling him to guide himself and that trusting in his own judgment is key. 

3. The allusion used to describe the narrator’s arrival in Harlem was to the story of Jonah from the biblical times. The narrators is being places into the belly of the whale an him entering Harlem is him coming out. 

Themes for Invisible Man

Two can play that game 

In Invisible Man the narrators knows that what they are doing is wrong. that they are fighting like savages towards each other know that this act of foolishness is not right. Also after reading “ I Too” and “Refugee in America reading I believe that they all know that they know the mistreatment is occurring and that they are not blind to it and one day they will be seen by killing them with kindness an doing everything that they are told and one day they will be ashamed 

Isolation 

In Invisible Man they isolated the narrator to make him be apart of all the African American people who has done wrong such as Trueblood when he impregnates his daughter. I can also attach this theme to the two poems because they are also being penalized for the wrong doings of others by being slaves and have no liberty. 

Judgment

In Invisible Man, I Too, and Refugee In America they are all being judged. They are place into a degraded race which limits the things they can do. They also know that one day they will be seen that this treatment will not last for long.
