... seen when Holden said, “ I asked her...if Mr. Cudahy...had ever tried to get wise with her. ...I wouldn't have put it past that Cudahy bastard” (79). Throughout the book, Salinger emphasizes how much Holden wants to protect the innocence of children. One occurrence of this is when Holden went to Phoebe's school and found “fuck you” written on the wall. He was infuriated because he knew all the children would see it. He said, “ Somebody'd written ‘Fuck you' on the wall. It damn near drove me crazy” (201). Holden wiped it off because he wanted to protect the children form seeing it. In fact, the title of the book deals with Holden wanting to protect kids. Hol ...

... issues of racism which exists. Atticus Finch once said, “It’s a sin to kill a mockingbird (Lee 90).” So why did death come to Tom Robinson, such a kind hearted loving person, whose only true sin was pity for a white woman. There are many other instances in To Kill A Mockingbird where racism is clearly shown. When Aunt Alexandra makes her first appearance in the novel, she says to Calpurnia, “Put my bags in the front bedroom, Calpurnia (Lee 127).” This shows the lack of respect and feeling of superiority that Aunt Alexandra has for Calpurnia, because of the colour of her skin. The inhabitants of the small Southern town of Maycomb ar ...

Black can be used to symbolize death, evil, and hell as well as mourning, sickness, and sinfulness. Sir Percivale receives a black magnific ...

... is what the tattered solider illustrates in the book. The tattered solider's pain comes from all of the horrible things associated with war. Him going crazy brings emotional pain and the physical pain is brought on by the endurance of war. "There was a tattered man, fouled with dust, blood and powder stain from hair to shoes, who trudged quietly at the youths side." (pg 50) The tattered solider also characterizes the toughness people can endear. "... the tattered soldier had two wounds, one in the head and the other in the arm, making that member dangle like a broken bough." (pg 51) "'Was a pretty good fight, wa'n't it?' Said the tattered man." (pg 51) Eve ...

... or to resign and go to Virginia to defend his home. Life in the army had ruined his life, “He had missed a father’s great joy of watching his children grow and learn... [and] try not to think about what his career had done to his family.” (Pg. 11) Throughout Part 1, Lee feels something missing from inside him: the feeling of action, of war. While in Texas, General Winfield Scott asks Lee to serve as second in command of the Union Army, but due to the possibility that Virginia could also secede, he declines. Still yearning for action, he accepts the command of the Provisional Army, the defense forces for the state of Virginia. He goes on to recruit Major Thomas Jacks ...

This method creates a free flowing rhythm and structure, which emphasises the theme of personal freedom due to it’s loose style and ability to capture the true feelings of the author as he writes. This original style was used by Kerouac in order subconsciously to express the thoughts of the mind in a continually flowing way without the constraints of the traditional rules of writing. Kerouac stated that when writing using this method one must “never afterthink to improve or defray impressions” because “the best writing is always wrung-out̶ ...
