... it so, those he despised would take the fall and many, including him would benefit somehow. In the end everyone got what they wanted except the selfish ones who deserved nothing but the inevitable, punishment. I believe the author wants everyone to see that at one time or another everyone wants to escape his or her life, that not everybody's life is as great as it may seem, regardless of money. He wants you to see you have to find your own way to make yourself happy but you should be prepared to face the consequences of any drastic actions which the main character was prepared to do. The main character of this story, Patrick Lanigan, was a partner in a thriving ...

... bring a little life into his existence. The matter appeared doomed in Hawthorne’s eyes, and unnatural. Hester doomed herself when she married Chillingsworth, certified that doom when she committed adultery, and finalized that doom when she concealed Chillingsworth’s identity from Dimmesdale. The effects these events had were the separation from her society, her lover, her husband, her child, and her own best self. She did it all in the name of sanctity, for true love, and she paid the price. Dimmesdale was changed by the affair in a way that “ [he] grew emaciated; his voice, though still rich and sweet had a [tone] of decay.” As a belie ...

... the specs back. So the combination of rebellious attitudes and the lack of power to control them, led to the downfall of the boys democratic society. One point to consider is that of Ralph and Piggy's lack of courage and the role it played not only in letting Jack run free but also the rest of the hunters. One could argue that because neither of the boys would stand up to Jack, he was left to do whatever he wished. This was a large factor in the societies downfall because Jack was the head of the eventual rebellion and turn to savagery. In addition Piggy was not very popular with the other boys, and because he stuck up for him; neither was Ralph. Jack constantly ...

... happening to Jonathan Harker. Mina hides all that she feels when Jonathan Harker is near her. All that Mina is feeling is written by herself, and what, how she is feeling is ready for a reader to examine because they are able to see her diary. If Mina's diary was not open to the reader, or if Someone was telling of what he or she saw, the observation could be false and the reader would lose valuable information that would be valuable to the whole plot of the book. Some things that can be noticed about the diary form is that different views of the same thing can be expressed by many different people; all in first person view. Then, along with that, there ...

... civilized. He states “...they say you can read and write. You think you're better'n your father, now, don't you, because he can't?” Perhaps this statement shows disgust in Huck through not following the moral values of his father, or perhaps this is just merely jealousy on his father's part. Huck's father warns Huck about going to school any more, yet Huck goes anyway, showing great willpower in the character of Huck in that he was gaining an education that he never really wanted in the first place, but soon came to realize that it was something actually useful, and in the fact that he was disobeying his father's orders.

... Ralph and Jack both agree in the beginning while they are reasoning in a civil manner. Throughout the novel the two leaders stray from one another because of differences in motivation. Jack told the boys “We've got to decide about being rescued” (Golding, 20). This statement illustrates Jack's civilized concern for the whole group. Jack seems to put the group before himself. This unselfish concern soon dissolves as the internal beast prevails over the civil Jack. “I ought to be chief because I'm chapter chorister and I can sing C sharp,” (Golding, 21) displays Jacks own arrogance. After the boys accept Ralph as chief, Ralph gives power over the choir boys ...

Radical change is effected in Macbeth's character over the course of the play; he is driven from subordinate confusion to tyrannical insanity. The fluidity of his own psyche is reflected in the fluidity with which the characters around him take up dynamics that reflect his inner fears and worries. Macbeth's relationship to the witches in Act 1 Scene 3 and his wife in Act 1 Scene 7 especially resonate with his inner psychic state. Both relations reveal important currents of Macbeth's diseased mind. The witches in Act 1 Scene 3 create a dynamic which flatters Macbeth in an a ...
