... is suspected to be of no value because of his lack of intelligence, and Candy's dog is thought to be of no importance because he has no teeth, can hardly see and can't eat. The dog is "no good to [Candy]" (p. 44) and he is "no good to himself" (p. 44). After Lennie kills Curley's wife, he's no good to George or himself. Carlson's luger, which is used to shoot Candy's dog in the back of the head, is also used by George to shoot Lennie in the back of the head. Slim had said earlier that he wished "somebody'd shoot [him] if [he] got old an' a cripple" (p. 45) and he also acknowledges that George has to shoot Lennie, telling him that he "hadda" (p.107). Both Candy ...

... should be taught not to make mistakes as their ancestors have made in the past. Huckleberry Finn should be taught in all high schools regardless of race for the main reason that students and parents should not be ashamed of their past. In Kathy Monteiro's complaint to the Tempe, Arizona school board she stated, "It's [the 'N' word] inappropriate anywhere but particularly in the classroom ... That should not be ... The price that a student pays when they go into the classroom [sic] to exchange any form of humiliation or degradation in exchange for their education - period."

... acquire an empty fishmeal storage building from Lee Chong. Mack and the boys transform it into their home, the Palace Flophouse. Doc ran Western Biological, a company that supplied animals for educational purposes, like dissection. He would go down to the tidepools and collect all sorts of critters like squid, octopus, and sea cucumbers.

After you get an audiences attention and are able to keep their attention, you’re home free. People are gullible. You can make them do whatever you want with the power of your voice; you ...

... crafts a story about the complex and powerful function of ideology in a culture. It is also my belief that this treatment of ideology in “Dry September” extends around the reader, making the reader aware of his or her own ideological responses to the story. The Ideology This first section of the paper will serve as an introduction to an ideological reading of the text. I have chosen secondary sources that represent an ascending scale of critical emphasis on ideology in “Dry September.” Paul Rogalus, in an article to the Explicator, states clearly that “Minnie Cooper…has accused a black man, Will Mayes, of having attacked her…”(Rogalus 211) Rogalus goes on to ...

... doing this he realizes that his family is completely in the shambles and his family has strayed from the church and tribal traditions. Kumalo eventually learns to deal with this and while he is doing this, he makes a friend, James Jarvis, that changes the way he has looked on life. The tribal breakdown starts to show in book I, with the land that the tribe must use and how the people have used up the natural resources that used to lay there. The whites pushed them out of where they used to reside where the land is so good that it could be even referred to as “holy, being even as it came from the Creator.” (pg. 3). In the rural areas such as this the decay comes ...

... he threw the grenade, he realized that he would be taking a man’s life. This is important because Paul saw that the soldier was a being who had feeling, just the same as he. Never before had he realized that with a single move, he could tear a man’s life apart. Paul began to think when he was in the shell-hole with the French soldier. This is significant because he realized that “the Enemy” were just men much like himself, with family, friends and most of all, life This also shows great insight because Paul feels the tremendous guilt for taking a man’s life, and attempts to fight against the idea of war. In war, men, who might otherwise be brothers, fight each oth ...
