Mahina has been asked to write about connections between "If" and The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling.

Which best connects the two pieces?

The Jungle Book is a story about animals. Animals are sometimes noisy and rude. “If” is a poem about dealing with people. It gives some advice about standing up to rude and noisy people.
“If” is a poem about becoming an adult. Rudyard Kipling lists several characteristics of a strong man. The Jungle Book is a fictional story about a boy becoming a man in the jungle. Both writings show the difficulty of leaving childhood to become an adult.
The Jungle Book is a story about a family. This family went through many problems, especially when Mowgli left the jungle to learn about Man. “If” is a poem about family. I think Rudyard Kipling wrote it for a member of his family and it is full of advice about dealing with family problems.
“If” is about dealing with wicked people in a difficult world. The Jungle Book has a very wicked character named Shere Khan. Shere Khan wants to break rules and gain power. He will stop at nothing to get Mowgli.

in this passage of moby-*ick, melville is developing the theme of obsession. the first part of the passage "sacrifice in the line of duty is noble" the author talks about nobles as a good character and also about sacrifice. if there is a duty and also a good cause it is good to fight for it and even if you die it would be admirable in our society. nobody can judge a person who sacrifices for doing what is correct.

in the second line "vengeance can become obsessive" is the perfect example of what happened to captain ahab. hunting and killing the white whale has taken over his life, he lost track of his own life in order to obtain his vengeance and that is not a good idea. vengeance is bad and it lead the character to suffer and pain even when they get vengeance, they feel empty they don't have a purpose anymore, their life lost the reason of existence.

in the third line the author talks about "commitment to a cause is admirable" this idea is similar to the first one, it talks about be the compromise to a good cause, it needs to be correct so it would be admirable. if you are committed to a bad cause as vengeance it is not admirable.

and finally in the fourth line "heartache is an unavoidable part of life" the author talks about death, we can't escape from death, it's our final destination in life and it's the end of everything. so we can obtain vengeance but if we die in the process it would be a shame.
