... is unacceptable for school children. They contest that the novel was written for adult readers because of graphic scenes. Some of these episodes would include Huck faking his own death and Jim finding Pap's dead body lying in a boat. These analysts argue that children should be forbidden to read the publication. In this day and age, High schoolers should be able to handle the material offered in Twain's timeless edition. Many commentators protest that Huck Finn is pointless and without purpose. This accusation is unsuitable, due to the accuracy of the dialects, as well as the historical ideas and morals of society that can just as well be found in an America ...

... to trace how Jane progresses in her struggle for individuality, as well as for love. At Gateshead, it becomes apparent that Jane is terrifically self-willed and possessive of a fiery temper. An example of this is when Jane stands up to her aunt saying, "You think I have no feelings, and that I can do without one bit of love or kindness, but I cannot live so: and you have no pity" (Bronte, 68). Here, Jane makes her first declaration of independence, contending that she will no longer be a secondary member in the Reed household. At Lowood, Jane is repulsed by Mr. Blocklehurst and his "two-faced" character and coarsen ...

... from a small town as I have, I had never been subjected to a wide variety of people. Walking through campus I would pass strangers and wonder who they were, where they come from, and what they were like. Wondering was all I had enough guts to do. I’ve never really been very good with meeting new people, well I didn’t have to where I come from I knew everyone. The fraternity has opened new doors for me, I’ve met so many people through them, relationships that I hope will be around for many years to come. I wish everyone thought of fraternities as I do, but that is not the case. They are often thought of as ignorant drunken souls banding together because of ...

... in performing certain actions eventually brings about their tragic downfalls. Julius Caesar believed that people needed one strong ruler in order to have maximum production and proper function of a society. He believed that he possessed many, if not all, of the characteristics required of a great leader. He spoke to others in a way which he believed exhibited authority, told people why he should be the one to lead them, and thought that his own advice was best. His unwillingness to listen to others is received as arrogance. Though already warned by the soothsayer to "beware the ides of March," Caesar refuses to heed advice to stay home from Calpurnia, his wife, b ...

... for the deeds of their sons, but never for a heroic deed of their own, their personalities, who they are, and what they do independent of males. It seems the only accomplishment women could achieve was being beautiful. Theseus “had no joy of”(195) the princess Ariadne because she died before this was possible. Homer makes it sound as if Ariadne’s life was useless because she did not give Theseus pleasure. The only woman we hear of for a different reason is Klymene, and we only hear of her because she “betrayed her lord for gold.”(195) This is the only time we hear of a woman for something she did, and once we do, it is a negative remark. Penelope, Odysseus’ queen ...

... unsure of why they are waiting for him. This also foreshadows that they will be waiting a very long time. In some cases in literature, an idea can only be conveyed properly if those on the receiving end of the idea are able to experience the feelings that a character is experiencing in the work. For example, in order for a reader to feel how and understand why Vladimir and Estragon feel as though they do while they wait, it is essential for that reader to either understand or experience the same feelings that Vladimir and Estragon are experiencing. Vladimir and Estragon are waiting; waiting for Godot, to be exact; and Beckett wants the reader to feel a ...

... eventually his death that is instantaneous caused by the suffering and calamity. There is the feeling of fear in the play as well, that makes men see how blind they are not knowing when fortune or something else would be on them. The hero must be of a high status on the chain and the hero also possesses a tragic flaw that initiates the tragedy. The fall of the hero is not felt by him alone but creates a chain reaction which affects everything below him. There must also be the element of chance or accident that influences some point in the play. King Lear meets all of these requirements that has been laid out by Bradley which is the most logical for a definition of ...

... again and his usual dealings with his father don’t seem to worry him as much. He just accepts things the way the are and does not seem to know why Biff can not do the same. The scene in which Happy and Biff tell their father Biff is to meet with Mr. Oliver and about the Florida Plan. From Willy’s perspective, I see him looking upon his too sons with the thought that his elder son might make something of himself yet. You can see throughout the play, that one of Willy’s dreams is for Biff to succeed. Although their constant bickering, you can almost see the look on his face when he is told the news. Willy might be slipping in his ol ...

... I see before me... Thou marshal'st me the way that I was going;" He had tricked himself into seeing a dagger to lead the way to Duncan's quarters. He tried to believe that he did not know what was to transpire when he came upon the sleeping king. He was going to kill Duncan nonetheless, and never even considered the consequences. He only knew that he needed power, but not how to acquire it. While speaking of the advancing enemy, Macbeth says to a servant, "I'll fight, till from my bones my flesh be hacked. Give me my armor." He refuses to acknowledge that his fate may be drawing near. He boldly trods through everything he comes upon, counting on blind luck ...
