Examples of narrative essays - Spelling and writing Example 1: Narrative essay When Christopher Columbus set out to cross the large empty spaces west of the Ecuumen, he had accepted the challenge of legends. Terrible storms would play with their ships, as if they were nutshells, and throw them into the mouths of the monsters; the great snake of the dark seas, hungry for human flesh, would be on the prowl. It only took a thousand years for the purifying fires of the final judgment to sweep the world, as the men of the fifteenth century believed, and the world was then the Mediterranean Sea with its coasts of ambiguous projection towards Africa and the East. Portuguese navigators claimed that the west wind brought strange corpses and sometimes dragged curiously carved logs, but no one suspected that the world would be, soon, surprisingly multiplied and persuasive essay. America not only lacked a name. The Norwegians did not know that they had discovered it a long time ago, and Columbus himself died, after his travels, still convinced that he had reached Asia from behind.
In 1492, the Admiral believed that these islands were an outpost of Japan. Columbus carried a copy of Marco Polo's book, covered with annotations in the margins of the pages. There are also pearls of the purest east in large numbers on this island. They are pink, round and large and surpass in value the white pearls. Cipango's wealth had reached the ears of the Great Khan Kublai, had awakened in his chest the desire to conquer it: he had failed. From the brilliant pages of Marco Polo, all the goods of creation were thrown into flight; there were almost thirteen thousand islands in the Indian Sea with mountains of gold and pearls, and twelve kinds of spices in immense quantities, in addition to black and white pepper. Pepper, ginger, clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon were as coveted as salt to preserve meat in winter without rotting or losing flavor. The desire for precious metals, a means of payment for commercial traffic, also boosted the crossing of the cursed seas. Whole Europe needed money; the reefs of Bohemia, Saxony, and Tyrol were almost exhausted. Example 2: Narrative essay In Cuba, there is no fear of race war. Man is more than white, more than mulatto, more than black. On the battlefields they died for Cuba, they have risen together through the air, the souls of whites and blacks. In the daily life of defense, loyalty, brotherhood, cunning, next to each target there was always a black. Blacks, like whites, are divided by their characters, shy or courageous, selfless or selfish, in the various parties in which men are grouped. Political parties are aggregates of concerns, aspirations, interests, and characters.
The essential similarity is sought and found above the differences of detail, and the fundamental of the analogous characters is based on the parties, although in the incidental to the common mobile they differ. But in sum, the similarity of the characters, superior as a factor of the union to the internal relations of the color of men graduated and in their degree sometimes opposite, decides and prevails in the formation of the parties. Character affinity is more powerful among men than color affinity. Blacks, distributed in the diverse or hostile specialties of the human spirit, can never be linked, nor will they want to be linked, against white, distributed in the same specialties. Blacks are too tired of slavery to voluntarily enter into color slavery. The men of pomp and interest will leave one side, white or black; and generous and selfless men will leave each other. True men, black or white, will be treated with loyalty and tenderness, for the sake of merit and pride of all that honors the land in which we were born, black or white The racist word will fall from the lips of blacks who use it today in good faith, when they understand that it is the only argument of valid appearance and validity insincere and scary men, to deny the black the fullness of his rights as a man. Two racists would be equally guilty: the white racist and the black racist. Many whites have already forgotten their color and many blacks. Together they work, black and white, for the cultivation of the mind, for the propagation of virtue, for the triumph of creative work and sublime charity.

The Republic cannot go back; and the Republic, since the only day of redemption of blacks in Cuba, since the first constitution of independence on April 10 in Guaimaro, never spoke of whites or blacks. And in the rest, everyone will be free in the sacred of the house. The merit, the evident and continuous proof of culture and the inexorable commerce will end up uniting men. In Cuba, there is much greatness in blacks and whites.
