... is between Toby and his wife Mary. Toby learns to love but does not ever learn how to communicate this love in a positive way with his wife. Another title that would work for this story would be “The Artificial Love.” The second theme is the importance of positive communication. Mary never communicated her seriousness about her feelings between Toby and Samantha. She shared there was a problem but chose not to deal with that problem. She left Toby without even discussing their problems with him. Toby never seemed to initiate any interest in his wife’s needs. He never asked her why she felt as she did. He just said he did not see a problem ...

... would never find out. When he did find out, he became very angry at losing his wife; she had betrayed him. He responded by trying to kill the other party, Arthur Dimmesdale.

John was lonely and in need of human comfort, comfort his wife was unable to give in her dying state. However when she regained her health, John left Abigail and went back to his ...

... is in conspiracy against the manhood of everyone of its members”(from Self-Reliance 194). Also, Transcendentalists believed that “The nation itself, with all its so-called internal improvements, which, by the way, are all external and superficial, is just such an unwieldy and overgrown establishment, cluttered with furniture and tripped up by its own traps, ruined by luxury and heedless expense” (from Where I Lived and What I Lived For 212) and for which the only cure is simplicity. In addition, Transcendentalists believed that man should live life to the fullest by seeking to reach their potential. Thoreau “did not wish to take a cabin passage, but rather to go ...

... in the field "believe that the future is a multimedia retrieval system for everyone" (p. 1). World communications systems can make it possible to get any almost television show in the world, from almost anywhere in the world.

... The poem's use of excellent diction helps to more clearly define what the author is saying. Words like "guttering", "choking", and "drowning" not only show how the man is suffering, but that he is in terrible pain that no human being should endure. Other words like writhing and froth-corrupted say precisely how the man is being tormented. Moreover, the phrase "blood shod" shows how the troops have been on their feet for days, never resting.

The fact one word can add to the meaning ...

... sense of intrigue and of brotherhood¡K ¡K ¡K from different people or places." and "After some time, he spoke again,¡K ¡K ¡K the hold soon filled with mutterings of approval." At that time, Kunta and the other prisoners wanted to keep their voices secret. Because they feared if the white men heard their plan, they would know the prisoners had united. Therefore, they were always murmuring and muttering. On the other hand, the common word "talking" is more casual, louder and clearer. That is why I think Haley used " murmuring" instead of the more usual "talking." Then, Haley used "toubob" instead of the more usual "white men," because the Africans meant "toubob" as a ...

... right of freedom. The people of London could very easily create a plan to make the Party less powerful. The occupants of London could stop following the rules of the Party, and start living as regular human beings. The citizens could stop fearing the Thought Police, and make a stand to demolish the whole empire known as Big Brother. The men and women have one way that could almost assure themselves of overthrowing the Party; create a revolt against Big Brother itself. The people could all get together, go to Big Brother to demand that they have their rights and that they can live a happy life if they please to do so. They can insist that Big Brother listen ...
