The Bear

The main thing that stood out to me was how Faulkner put most of the things throughout the story into epic proportions.  Previously stated by Caleb in his post, America doesn't really have a mythological past or background.  However, anything mythological could mostly come from the South, and this seems like Faulkner's attempt at doing so.  Almost everything in the story seems to be blown into epic proportions, such as the hunt, and the struggle between Lion and the bear.  There's also multiple passages that give airs of suspense throughout the reading, that can build onto that epic proportional struggle.
